It’s not the drive I can stay behind it and when I start to head north it will be going more easterly. Everyone be careful ! Your the best voice in your head on what to do. Its the other maniacs on the road usually who cause you problems 🙃 4 Quote

patman Posted June 19 Posted June 19 Hey guys, what’s the address of the hotel? I can’t seem to find it in this thread. This is probably due to my questionable tech skills…🤦🏼♂️ I got to my sons place in Hershey last night and plan on swinging by this morning. 2 Quote

420ponies Posted June 19 Posted June 19 I'm coming down early, little nervous about its 1st trip. I've checked, and rechecked everything I can think of. So, We will see how far we can get. I have to drive about an hour ,and then sit for 30 -45 mins for the rear gears to cool. Part of the break-in procedure. Then when I return home, change gear oil and should be good! Can't wait to see everyone ! 5 Quote

kpcsgasp Posted June 19 Posted June 19 On 6/3/2025 at 9:29 PM, Rob Peters said: ((UPDATED DAY WEDNESDAYJUNE 4TH)) I wanted to update you on our GM National Mini-Meet. I also wanted to let everyone know that if you have not made your hotel reservations yet, we will lose any remaining rooms in our block on May 30th, that is only 5 days from today. Today I have added new FGMCC Members John Engle, Patrick Hogan, Kevin Gasparini and Josh Thomas to our list of attendees and this has brought our new total to 53 members registered with me to attend. Since the hotel has added some more rooms to our block we still have around 5 rooms in our block. We usually get some members signing up at the last minute so it is good to have this buffer of additional rooms with less than two months until this great mini-meet. That said, in a little less than a month from now, we will lose any rooms that have not been claimed. Below is an updated list the members I have heard from who are planning to attend the Carlisle GM Nationals Mini-Meet. With the registration of the below member , we are now at 44 so keep those registrations coming. The names I have added yesterday and today are Barry Holden from Washington, GA and Del Warner from Sweet Valley, PA. Currently Registered With Me: Mark Apel OHIO Thomas Baird NEW YORK Bob Bardou NEW YORK Doni Blanchard NEW YORK Jim Cihlar NEW YORK CK Collins NEW YORK Dennis Collins NEW YORK David Concordia NEW JERSEY Willie Conforte NEW YORK Randy Czankner PENNSYLVANIA Tony DiVirgilio PENNSYLVANIA Anthony DiVirgilio PENNSYLVANIA Dan Donlin NEW JERSEY Randy Dougherty DOUGHERT PENNSYLVANIA John Engle OHIO Kevin Ferrante NEW YORK Tom (Little Tom) Ferrante NEW YORK Jo Garvin PENNSYLVANIA Kevin Gasparini VIRGINIA Rick Gibson PENNSYLVANIA Andy Gorzynski PENNSYLVANIA Doug Guenther NEW YORK Carl Hanson VIRGINIA Michael Heckler PENNSYLVANIA Robert Hedden PENNSYLVANIA Patrick Hogan OHIO Barry Holden GEORGIA (ADDED ON TUESDAY JUNE 3RD) Kevin Jones PENNSYLVANIA Kevin Low NEW JERSEY Mike Minch PENNSYLVANIA Jeff Mullen MARYLAND Jay Munday PENNSYLVANIA Greg Munday PENNSYLVANIA MYSTERY SURPRISE MEMBER Frank O'Connell MASSACHUSETTS Rob Peters PENNSYLVANIA Patrick Peters PENNSYLVANIA Glen Popiela ILLINOIS Seth Primack NEW YORK John Rodi CONNECTICUT Joe Roman PENNSYLVANIA James Stead NEW YORK Joe Sullivan PENNSYLVANIA Josh Thomas PENNSYLVANIA Joe Tedesco NEW YORK Dennis Tretter OHIO Mark Truman FLORIDA Gary Vanatter PENNSYLVANIA Del Warner PENNSYLVANIA (ADDED ON WEDNESDAY JUNE 4) THBob Wiemels OHIO Mike Zecca PENNSYLVANIA If you are planning to attend and you don't see your name on the below list please get me your tracking information. The information I need is: Member Last Name: Member Frist Name: Number In Your Party: City: State: Arrival Date: Departure Date: Monte Year: Member Preferred Email: Hotel: Thanks for all who have responded. It will be here before we know. Who is going be next to move us from our current of 53 count and get us to to 54 members to get registered? We are doing so well and on our way to maybe hitting 55 members OR or more members with 10 states and one Canadian Province represented so far. At this point, most of our 40 to 45 rooms have been spoken for. Get your reservations in because we may not be able to get any rooms added. rob Since I've only been town for 3 weeks you could say I came from Alaska! 2 Quote

Rob Peters Posted June 22 Author Posted June 22 Struggling to get home. Gor gas just before getting onto the turnpike and there must be some water or junk in the tank from that gas. Have gotten off rhe Pike because if I end up needing a flatbed it is too hard to get one on the Pike. Going to be singing 'take me home country roads' all the way home rob 7 Quote
