Just a reminder that the Lotus Enthusiast's Organization has organized a Spirited Drive for this Sunday, October 28th. We will run rain or shine! Thanks to the warm weather, the fall colors were not quite at their peak during our final check-out last weekend, so it should be absolutely fantastic this weekend!
:cool:
Starting from the Cracker Barrel Restaurant in Clinton, NJ ( just south of Exit 15 of Interstate 78), the Drive commences at 11:00 AM. (Join us in the restaurant about 9:30 for breakfast if you wish.) From there we will meander towards <<ALERT AL!!!>> Frenchtown, NJ, and have a break and refreshments at Wm. Thomas Roadsters about 12:30 PM. Bill Thomas will demo several Sector111 items that he installs on customers' Elises.
:bigears:
Then we hit the road once more, ending up at the Good Times Restaurant in historic Oxford, NJ. (Not far from my favorite NJ locality, BUTTZVILLE. Yes, that IS the center of Nowhere...) We will stop there about 4:00 PM for drinks or sandwiches too, if anyone is hungry.
:cheers:
But the main focus will be on the DRIVING. The AM leg is 40 miles and the PM section is 45 miles. Because there might be a gaggle of slowpoke leaf-watchers on the roads, we have selected the best secondary and tertiary two-lane roads in Hunterdon and Warren counties. They are wonderful and twisty, and are suited for all Lotus cars from older Elans and Europas to the newest Elises and Exiges.
As always, our LEO events are informal. If you can't spend the whole day with us, it's OK to partake of the morning or afternoon drives independently, as your schedule permits.
:blueangel:
There won't be a whole lot of good Lotus driving left in the year, :cry: so come one, come all! Please send me an email or PM if you are coming...or call day-of-event 201-852-9742.
