Eastern PA Meet-up?

I'm in Lansdale and work in Langhorne. Horsham is on way home for me..

In reply to dxman92 :

Sounds like the perfect route to join the party!

Harrisburg here.  I'd be interested, but don't try to plan around my schedule.  I tend to work 80 hours a week.

I might be able to visit sometime mid May or later. I'm moving to Penn State soon. 

Welcome to PA!   May your move go soother than mine did.

Just in time for the Carlisle Import and Kit show!

For those of us closer to the middle of the state, maybe some Karting in Harrisburg would work?  I've been wanting to check this place out http://autobahnspeed.com/

I am planning to be there all weekend. Well, going home for the nights as it's only 45 minutes for me, but yeah. Make sure to give a holler when you're there. 

I'm in Altoona (halfway between Pittsburgh and Harrisburg, 35 minutes south of State College). I work second, mon-fri, so don't try to schedule around me. I, too, would be wiling to go to Autobahn Harrisburg. 

I'm going to have to bow out. I have a prior commitment and the weather is starting to look dicey Wednesday.

Work is sending me out of town Tuesday through Thursday, so I’m not going to be able to make it this week.  Bummer. 

You guys are going to miss out.  Im planning on bring enough gas station nachos for everyone!

I'm still trying to figure out what's going on (*edit) this week. The 3 day power outage really there things out of wack here. Plus there's talk of another storm Tuesday into Wednesday. 

I think the storm will be a bigger event for the costal area.

Guys I don't get the time like I used to to participate on the board, but I'm willing to have a get together at the shop if people want to come out.  Before racing and show car season works better for me.    There's a great pizza shop across the street too.

That's also what they said about the Friday storm and I have friends still without power in PA (although my power near even blipped...).

We'll play it by hear and adjust accordingly.  A gathering at Rob's shop could also work if he can work out a time. 

In reply to AWSX1686 :

Will do, I'll at least be there Saturday spectating for a while. I'm still debating whether or not to sign the RX7 up and actually "show" it. Car shows generally not being my thing, I usually just park outside and walk around for a few hours, which is about all I have the attention span for. 

Count me in for Autobahn Harrisburg too.

In reply to Ian F :

We got hammered in Monroe county. The ground is so saturated up here that the trees are just coming out of the ground with the winds. We're lucky they got to us when they did since PP&L was saying probably no power before Wednesday.

So are we going to try to go karting in Horsham tomorrow despite the storm?

In reply to ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ :

I won't be able to make it. Work has already told me not to come in as we're expecting 8ish inches here and 10 to 14 where I live. Now if it veers off course I'm there.

In reply to ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ :

I think its best to reschedule.  I just got the "cancel all your appointments and return to your home office before the storm hits" email.  Normally I take a wait and see approach with storms but if the boss says go home, I go home.

I'm playing it by ear.  I have outgrown the need to prove my driving ability in snow and have no desire to sit in traffic for four hours if I don't have to, so I will work from home tomorrow if conditions look cruddy.  I don't really need to be in the office to do the tasks I'm working on right now.

Even I have been told to stay home tomorrow if things look nasty, despite still being the asshat who likes to prove he can make it to work in a rwd car when the 4x4s stay home, so apparently it's supposed to be quite bad 

We are up to 7 inches so far.  I suppose its about time to make the first pass with the snow blower. 

I drove in yesterday and the morning drive was great - hardly anyone on the road.  Management even rewarded the few of us idiots who made the trek with a free pizza lunch (that nearly made me sick).  I left around noon and the drive home was getting bad.  I'm glad I didn't leave any later.

The drive in this morning was an adventure. While my immediate area wasn't bad (power barely blipped), a few miles away there were multiple trees down, a power pole blocked my path requiring me to turn around in a driveway, then got stuck behind a spun-out car and had to dig him out so I could proceed (fortunately, I had my shovel with me).  This was all about 2 miles from my house - so after all that I decided to stick to more traveled roads and made it the rest of the 25 miles without incident.
