No problem, If I meet him at exit 67 at 11:30 we should be in Candor by noon. We still meeting at Extra Mart or is that changing now?

​

Just from the posts it looks like we will break the record this year. The MCA club from Buffalo is planning on joining us. I will contact Dave on Sunday morning to let him know how many cars we have at Pembroke.

 

[MikeRadMan]

So looking forward to this.

Matt, give me a call on Sunday, you have my number, I will be in Henrietta early as I have had a ton of people contacting me outside the club wanting info, there was a post on Facebook and some emails sent out and now both have blown up, I will have the NY Mustangs banner out front of were we are meeting in Henrietta and again in Geneva.

 

[blwn93gt]

My contact at the Geneva police department called me and we are all set for a police escort from the parking lot up to Rt.14

 

[wakester06v6]

Hey Wakester06V6, I'll meet you at the Hinsdale exit at noon. I'm coming from Olean.

Cool! Just look for the screaming yellow 06.

 

[Ironhorse]

We can get tickets at the track or do we have to stop at the retail shop in town?

 

[Ironhorse]

Just called and spoke with corporate from the track and they said you can purchase tickets at the track. Maybe someone who knows more can confirm this. Thanks!

 

[redlawyers]

I pay at the track. $25. Bring cash people!

 

[jricky917]

I've got cash, you bring any single mustang loving ladies you can find. lol

 

[blwn93gt]

Everyone, please bring a 2-way radio with you if you have one, there are going to be a ton of cars and I can't see all the way in the back

 

[blwn93gt]

Also, after the glen, a group of us are cruising back to Geneva and grabbing dinner at Denny's, kind of a tradition we started a couple years ago, everyone is welcome to join

 

[wakester06v6]

Everyone, please bring a 2-way radio with you if you have one, there are going to be a ton of cars and I can't see all the way in the back

What channel / frequency should we all use?

 

[2nd 66]

NOTE TO grabber427and grn hornet

No problem, If I meet him at exit 67 at 11:30 we should be in Candor by noon. We still meeting at Extra Mart or is that changing now?

​

In order to meet the other group In Alpine on time grabber427 and grn hornet you guys will have to meet me in Candor about 11:30 Hope this works out for you I don't want to have NY2010Roushstage2 and his group of 12 to 15 Waiting on us

 

[blwn93gt]

We will sync all radio's to channel 10

 

[Ford1017r6]

If you can be at the Fastback Gas Station in Geneva, between 12:30 and 12:45 you can cruise down with the group from western NY. The other option would be to be at the main gates of the glen by 1:45 to meet everyone as they roll in. We are supposed to be on track at 2:00

Is this still a go? I'll be there

You are added to the list.

​

 

[Ford1017r6]

I'm still relatively new to the club, so I don't know all that much about the event.

What are the rules for the track day? I looked over the event on their webpage but didn't really see any rules / requirements other than you have to be 18.

Coming from.Albany too what time.are you planning on getting.there it says it.closes at 3 on the glen site

Do we need helmets since its a paced lap?
How fast is a paced lap? (not a huge nascar buff lol)
Are passengers allowed?
Can we strap a go-pro to the car?

I only ask since its a little bit of a ride from Albany to find out I needed to have $100s invested in helmets.

Thanks!

@Ford1017r6,

This was/is the plan for everyone coming in from the northern side of the state. Except it is Fasttrac not Fastenal.
