Ok Everyone in NJ, eastern PA, I've been hearing about the "Round Britain Reliability Run" for some weeks now, as well as almost hourly updates, and I think that we colonials, in support of our brothers in cars across the sea, should do something in support of their efforts.
Therefore, I propose the following; The First "Impromptu Round Mid New Jersey Reliability Run" to be held tomorrow, as the weather is supposed to cooperate. Due to short notice, and even shorter route, the run will be substantially shorter in duration than theirs, but fun none the less. My proposed route is meet at 8 or 9 am in Cherry Hill, follow Washington's Route to Monmouth(Cty. Rte. 537/Marne Highway/Monmouth Road) for mid morning snack, and vehicle check. Proceeding then down St. Rte. 9 to Atlantic city for lunch, then in to Vineland/Milleville (Have to look up the route number there) for the early afternoon snack and vehicle check. Follow the Delsea Drive up to I-295 to I-676 and stop at the Battleship New Jersey, then back to Cherry Hill where we disperse. (Alternate to Delsea Drive is Rte. 49 to Salem, then St. Rte 130 north to Rte. 30, to the Battleship in Camden) I expect we would want a minimum of 5 cars for this get together, as we would at least be noticed this way... I know it is short notice, but good weekends are getting somewhat scarce, and I don't think there's anything else on for this weekend, at least locally. Figure requirements to be- LBC of older vintage(40's? to early 80's?) gas money, food money, clothing as appropriate, plus a jacket and blanket in the boot if desired, AAA card(if a member- Friend with a AAA card if not) Preferably a team mate to take driving duties if so inclined. Spares as thought necessary (Points, plugs, condenser, cap rotor, fuel pump, engine, bonnet, you all know what you like to pack along!) Each car should have a fire extinguisher and small first aid kit, as well as its own tool kit and jack + spare. Camera & Film, or digit(for those using digital cameras) Again, short notice, but maybe we could have some fun tomorrow, instead of the tasks we've already put down to do... Let's play hooky to support the LBC crowd! If you can pass this along to other LBC lists, feel free to do so- maybe we can get a quorum together tomorrow... Anybody interested, and planning to attend this spur of the moment event, please contact me immediately off list, and I will reply to all this evening as to start location and time.Be sure to include where you're coming from, and a phone number I can reach you at. Last chance this season to go and run the engine right! (In case anybody cares, as this is a thrown together event, there will be no prizes awarded. Just getting back with the car in one piece should be reward enough! Least it is for me... ;) Maybe next year, should this one come off.) Ultimate Sunday Ride! Why not give it a shot?
