Figured you did. I'm going up Thursday on business, but didn't want to put you on the spot.
I'm staying at the Rodd just up the street, .6 of a KM, have never stayed there but an associate has, says it's not to bad. $75 a night.
Any one else ever stay there?

We meet up on Saturday Morning @ McDonalds, and play it by ear from there. Of course you'd probably want to arrive on Friday night with that long of a drive. There are tons of hotels in Moncton. The Country Inn & Suites isn't bad, we've stayed there before. Most of us will be staying at the Delta. Again, not a bad spot. I can get you more hotel info if you need it. :)
Ya...pass the hotle info an the Mcdonalds location over...I'm gonna talk to the woman and see what she thinks. She says she may want to come aswell.

04-03-2007, 11:28 AM
Which website? The Delta?
slowbird
04-03-2007, 11:37 AM
Yea...he sent me the Delta link.
Is that where you are all staying? Good in-expensive hotel?
Looks purty. Can't spend too much on accomodations since GAS will be taking priority in funds.
I hope I can make it...it'd be fun meeting all you guys.
sunrunner_pei
04-03-2007, 12:10 PM
I think most of us that are staying the night will be staying at the Delta. No matter where you stay though, Moncton isn't a huge city. You won't be far away. :)
Gas will be killer though, especially if you drive with a lead foot. And the roads through Quebec aren't great if memory serves me correctly. It's been 6 years since I've driven to Toronto. :)

I'm guessing if I stick to the highways and don't have to stop and accelerate very much I should make good time/fuel economy.
Maybe even get around 500kms/tank. Making it 3 tanks per way.
I checked online and the Delta says it's booked. I check a Best Western and they want almost $300 for the 2 nights.
Any other suggestions?

Sweet...I was looking for their site cause you mentioned them before...lemme see.
Lowest I found was the Holiday Inn express for $117/night...that's right by Magnetic Hill.

04-03-2007, 12:53 PM
Hmm, is that the hotel that was looking for the bed? :lol: (Sorry, inside joke).
What about the new one, Chateau Moncton: http://www.chateau-moncton.nb.ca/

The countryhouse looked good. Inexpensive. Their website said they wee booked up but I e-mailed them anyways...same for the Chateu Moncton.

Well...it's offical.
I can NOt get the day off work. I originally thought I could but the girl who said she'd take my shift suddenly backed out.
I work on Friday and I'd never make it to Monton in time to sleep and attended the meet.
Boooooooooooo-urns. :(

That sucks Mike, but you have a good reason for not coming.
JMILLS
04-09-2007, 02:50 PM
Ok, so I just loaded Canada into my GPS and set a route to the hotel, for some reason it seems to be insisting that I take 95 to Houlton for the border crossing, but I have always taken the Airline Rd to Clais/St Stephens for the crossing?
Input from those international traveler's in our group?
Jchiasson
04-09-2007, 02:58 PM
You probably have your options set to stick to Interstates. or the likes.
Jchiasson
04-09-2007, 03:03 PM
Houlton to Delta: 291KM in 2 hours 45 minutes
Calais to Delta : 268KM in 2 hours 44 minutes
This using Streetds and Trips 2006
JMILLS
04-09-2007, 03:13 PM
Yep, checked a couple of routes on my computer and even though every site tells me to go to houlton it looks like calais is 2 mins shorter and 38 miles less.
TheTrader
04-09-2007, 03:42 PM
the thing with the airline road is its windy & non-highway ish for the most part, but the I-95 is good if you just wana set it on cruise and fly all the way through... they highway down from Houlton is also a very nice highway the whole way, where as the road from Calais up is not as nice....
so, depends if your in the mood to actually do some driving, or in the mood to set the cruise, throw on a good CD and just relax for the most part :)
02G-Dam
04-09-2007, 03:45 PM
I prefer the Airline and Calais myself.. We've always travelled those roads for Drag Racing in the states... etc... But Dans right... the Houlton way down is nice too.. I prefer the Airline... the drive from the airline up is beautiful.. except for the dives on the sides of the roads.. HAHAHA.. Guess I just contradicted myself huh?
JMILLS
04-09-2007, 03:51 PM
I have never personally driven the Houlton way, ridden as a kid but don't remember much. I prefer backroads/twisties more then highway so I think I will take my normal route.
02G-Dam
04-09-2007, 03:52 PM
IM the same way!!! I get bored on straight away highway.. I drove mom and Dad to Bangor Wednesday and had a blast on the highway but watch it cause there is one BITCH of a Frost Heave in the middle of one of the turns!!!

Thats because there's nothing up there to remember, Jason. :lol: I go both ways to mix things up, on the way back from your place in Sept Karen & I went back I-95. The time is about the same, there's just nothing to see on I-95. Then again, there's not much to see on the northern 1/3 of the Airline road either. :lol:
2001GAGT
04-09-2007, 07:12 PM
Another reason it might be wanting you to go that way Jason is because there is only one part that is not 4 lane, and it only take you a max of 10min to go over. It is between the US border and the Trans Canada. It is under constrution and (I think) should be 4 lane by the end of this year.
JMILLS
04-09-2007, 07:15 PM
Well that's true, but considering the scary form of humans that live up past the border in that neck of the woods I feel much safer on the airline road where I won't see anyone!
2001GAGT
04-09-2007, 07:22 PM
You will not see anyone on the I-95 either :lol:

Ya, we all usually bring two-way radios with us to chat between the cars, find each other, order new matresses to random hotel rooms... you get the idea. Sounds like the kind you have is what we use.

Well guys im not sure that I can make it now :( Im kinda sad too cause I REALLY wanted to come... the garage is booked solid for Fri and Sat... Someone scheduled TONS of work... BUT on the other hand sAturdays customers consist of mainly NB Power trucks and theyre loyal customers so its hard to turn your back on them.. but im still kinda sad :( On that note maybe we could meet up in a couple months down this way.. Have a BBQ or something
02G-Dam
04-18-2007, 02:15 PM

Well, I should be hitting the road about 7:30-8:00AM EST this morning, stopping off for lunch and such. Should be up there sometime this afternoon. Unfortunetly I won't have a cell phone after I cross the border because my company offers no international plans :(
I have no idea on a meeting time for Saturday, I am just a follower :lol: Anyone?
Throw your suitcase in the back,
Done gassed up the Pontiac,
Blastin' out to Johnny Cash, headin' for the highway,
Baby we ain't ever comin' back.

Hey everyone, Great Weekend. Glad to see you all again, and meet some of you for the first time. We arrived back safely in the states about 7:30PM EST. Hope to see you all at the next one.
Need suggestions for the most memorable quote for the meet.

Good to see you made it home, sorry I missed brunch and what not today. Actually made it home in 3 hours, fastest ever, oh and yes mine is governed! :lol:
Great time meeting everyone! Hmmm, let's see a quote...
"Kelly would never have made it, he didn't have his Daisy Dukes on!"
"Who's the d$%khead head now?"
"She has a shy colon."

Sorry I missed yas...did see the cars parked on Mtn. Rd Crappy Sat. Nite...but no one around...maybe next time....
If anyone around Miramichi this summer...might see you at the Drag Races...lol... would like to match up my '04 GT (new baby) with a few other GA's...lol...and dont forget about the Nationals !!!
I guess i'll have to stop working so much and pay more attention to this site.....lol.....anyways...it was nice to see such perrrrrty GA's besides mine!! lol... i guess i still need to do some work (work in progress) very slow progress but progress.
Til Next Time - Glad to hear you folks had a good time, Moncton Style

Sorry we missed you... We were over at Mike's eating supper when you saw the cars parked, I bet. And that means you missed our game of real-life Frogger crossing Mountain Rd. :lol: "Car! Look out!" *screeeeeeeech!* :roflmfao:
Thanks to everyone that made it out. It was really great to see some new faces. A special thanks to Dan & Trina for the accommodations & gourmet food on Friday night. And of course to Greg for the tire delivery. :) It's a shame you couldn't stick around, bud. You would've had a ball at MX Carting!!!!
Karen & I had a great time!

Still waiting on Kelly & Jason to post up their pics. i took very few over the weekend; I decided to spend my time having fun instead of holding the camera. It was nice for a change. :)
But thanks to Paula for holding on to everything while we zipped around the track. :lol:

Wow, I just checked out our local indoor track and they want $20USD a race, not discounts for race packages... Don't think I will be going there anytime soon. At those prices it would be cheaper to do the 6 hr drive to Moncton :lol:

If I'm not mistaken...My cousin had two cars at that show.
One was an orange VW rabbit, which won best paint. (I think)
And.. he had his Legends race car. Looks like this, with a much better paint job.

That would be the "Silly Rabit".... I must say, one of my fave cars of the show.
