Don't worry, Greg (FASTLANE) is working on PLAN B ROUTE already...
Just wanted to give you guys a heads up...
http://www.autoblog.com/2009/05/26/r...s-time-square/
The crossroads of North America is about to become a lot more pedestrian-friendly. New York City's Times Square is reportedly getting a makeover to make it car-free. According to an Associated Press report, portions of Broadway from 42nd Street up to 47th and from 33rd to 35th are being closed to cars to cut down on pollution, traffic and pedestrian accidents.
To kick off the new arrangement, NYC has planned something of a block party in the Square, where they'll play a movie on a giant screen and street performers will entertain the crowds. They're even going to set out beach chairs so folks can cop a squat and soak it all in.
Barriers started going up on Sunday around Times Square and the nearby Herald Square in front of Macy's. Herald Square is the other area that will become a pedestrian mall as a result of the changes. To make sure everything goes smoothly, the Department of Transportation says it will be keeping a close eye on traffic in the area as the new setup ramps up.

The details of the run will be handed out at the meet. If you have a hand held radio bring it we will be using them. Just to refresh everybody here are the details:
This is going to be the largest tri state meet of the spring! We are having people from as far away as Maryland, Virginia and Washington D.C. we also have Pennsylvania members joining as well as the Tri state crew. We have professional photographers and videographers that will be attending as well. Here are the details:
Meet at Edgewater commons (Edgewater N.J.) at 9:30 pm
Leave at 11:00 pm
Cruise through N.J. and head into NYC through Times Square and to a meeting point on the west side.
After the meet in the city we will cruise back into N.J. and meet at a Diner for some food. We will be back in Jersey by 12:30 AM
PM me with any questions or concerns.

^^^^Nicky - Shut up dude, do you really. Is it the diner right up the street (beginning of the entrance to Hoboken / Washington ST)....sorry, don't know the streets, been a while since i've been up there.
Maybe we all grab some grub there (The MD/DC/VA Crew) before we all head back home.
You got enough parking for about 8 cars????
