not yet, we are still working with the auto cross clubs up there but we are making other plans as well just in case. The issues come down to not only space, but insurance and other things. People don;t realize that even though an auto cross event is in a parking lot, there is alot of expense behimd the scens to get the thing going.

 

Yeah, I figured that out quickly last year as I was trying to set one up at MIR. Shoot me a PM if I can do anything to help. I don't know any people up there personally, but someone in one of the clubs I race with might.

 

I understand. I have been doing autox in northern NJ and NY for 2 years, but only know a few people. Maybe I can ask to see if I can get the people that set it up so we can push this along.

As a side note, not sure if you have the Times Sq route planned, but since I live a few blocks from there, thought I'd give my 2 cents about some nice spots:
-59th and 8th at Columbus circle: we might be able to get a bunch of cars in front of the park in the circle for some shots
-From 55 to 47th down Broadway, there is parking in the middle lane of the street, so we might be able to park there a line of cars and take pics with the lights

 

Did I miss these somewhere, maybe posted in another section of the forum?

So any word on Sunday's activities? Less than a month away woooo!

 

+1

 

so this is less than a month away can we get some more details... instead of bullet points... meet times, addresses, last year for maxus everything was set in stone in detail within months, right now we are not a month away and we have nothing

 

any word on what racing events are finalized? i'm getting excited.

 

So I just noticed this:

Sunday - June 27, 2010:

• Scenic Cruise and Group Photo Session at Liberty State Park
  • We have rented the entire track for MAXUS 2010 Gates open at 10AM
  • Caravan to leave at 9AM from hotel
• Main BBQ Maxima Meet, Awards Presentation, and Raffle
  • Fords Park - Grove 1

1st, Redmax, I think you copied the format from Saturday but left the "rented track" part there.

2nd, so just to clarify, the cruise starts from Liberty State Park and we all drive to the BBQ at Fords Park, Grove 1? I will add these locations to the Maxus Google Map I made, just want clarification.

 

LOL!!! wow i will get that fixed but yes we will drive from the first place to the second. This year we are actually going to have pamplets explaining each thing we are going to do in succession

 

I really like the way this is coming together, great job everyone involved!

 

Thanks Guys!!!

 

Will you be updating the subpages for each aspect of the event? (Scenic Cruise, Midnight Run, etc)

 

Yes we will be, we have been extremely swamped and are updating as fast as possible.

 

RedMax,
I have a question about the Car Show

I have a Lightly Modified (I think) 7thGen but can only be entered in the OPEN MODIFIED, and there will be only 1 winner, is that correct? If so, that's not fair where is the 7thGen love


source: http://www.maxus2010.com/show.html
HEAVILY MODIFIED
1st - 3rd Gen (Top 2)
4th Gen (Top 2)
5th Gen (Top 2)
6th Gen (Top 2)

LIGHTLY MODIFIED
1st - 3rd Gen (Top 2)
4th Gen (Top 2)
5th Gen (Top 2)
6th Gen (Top 2)

OPEN MODIFIED
7th Gen (Top 1)

 

LOL the issue is that there arent many 7th gens that will show and if they do, not many of them are modified but i will see what i can do.

 

I want to go to this, is anyone from the Twin Cities (MN) or Wisconsin area going and want a passenger? I would take my max, but..... lol

 

Redmax...totally excited man. Looks like the weather is going to cooperate with us too!! Thanks for all the work put it man, just letting you know the community really appreciates it!!!!

 

Quick question for ya....for us that are just coming to spectate the Car show and Drag event...what is the cost for entrance fees? I see there is a 20 fee for island dragway, but is it more for the other activities if you are spectating?

 

Thanks alot!!! yes its just the 20 fee to spectate. if you want to race its 10 more to race

 

Redmax
what if you just want to run some and not enter the drag competition. My car is stock and slow and I'm just interested in having a few runs down the track. Or does everyone have to enter a class to just have a few runs (not in a competition)

I just want to make sure i do the right thing
THANKS

 

the price is the same as long as you want to run on the track. you will be able to run alot during the day. as a matter of fact the class races will not start until 1pm

 

There was a threat of isolated thunderstorms for Saturday. Just a little while ago, they moved that on to Sunday. Good trend.

In case anyone is watching the weather in East Rutherford.

where's the meet and greet? What time?

 

strange that the MAXUS website doesn't have it listed.

Found this on another forum:
