MR.SAAB 07-07-11, 09:32 AM I have planned an hour long ride through the back roads that is freshly paved and is an awesome drive, it goes through all of the old resorts in the poconos that are now closed down,
GTurner598 07-07-11, 09:49 AM ill be there!
I will also be bringing my spare turbo and some other parts i have in my trunk if anyone wants to buy
guppy822 07-07-11, 11:23 AM Sweet I'll be there!
MR.SAAB 07-07-11, 03:29 PM There is really no other NJ/PA folks attending?
Tweek's Turbos 07-07-11, 03:48 PM I must be blind, what day?
guppy822 07-07-11, 03:54 PM We will be there even though she has a smashed rearend :cry:
MR.SAAB 07-07-11, 04:02 PM This Sunday July 10th everyone
Matt1488 07-07-11, 07:04 PM well I got Sunday off. Ill be there
MR.SAAB 07-07-11, 08:25 PM Go to camelback and don't stop until you are at the top of the mountain. It's a state park so don't speed it's a federal offense. As you are driving to camelback you will pass it on the left. So just keep going to the lookout area (it's the dead end)
no more than a few minutes once you pass camel beach
Matt1488 07-07-11, 11:39 PM I just realized that this is more of a southeastern PA gtg and if someone is coming from wilkes Barre the best way is to take 81N to 380(depending on which part of wilkes, i forgot thatsome parts of it do exist.)
Rarelibra 08-07-11, 12:01 AM I'll be in San Diego for the week.

Matt1488 09-07-11, 03:04 PM To answer ur question. Do any 900s come. Well we never had a pa meet before so we don't know. Are the welcomed, of course. Any Saab is welcomed.
FiveStar 10-07-11, 03:08 AM still on the fence about this one.

if it will be some good numbers, ill make the 2 hr trip.
Matt1488 10-07-11, 09:00 AM What's ur definition of good numbers
guppy822 10-07-11, 09:02 AM I am curious too. Is it 5 or 15 cars?
Matt1488 10-07-11, 09:19 AM As far as I know its 4 Saabs. Me, Gerry, mike, and Alex. I think two more ppl from here are going as well. According to Alex there will be some other cars there too.

ok, i was thinking it was maybe 20-30 cars, looks like its a local gtg. i'll have to wait for something a little closer next time, post some pics for us 'lazy people' :lol:
guppy822 10-07-11, 10:36 AM How long approximately do these rides usually last?
Matt1488 10-07-11, 10:38 AM I've never been to a 20-30 Saab gtg other than Carlisle. Alex and I went to jersey to meet 2 other saabers. A 2hr drive. And I plan to go to new York next week for a gtg up there.
Matt1488 10-07-11, 10:45 AM I have no clue how long this last. It could be all day. Could be a few hours. Depends on the fun. And there is alot to do in this area that we are going to.
GTurner598 10-07-11, 10:54 AM there is probably going to be us 4 saabs there and im gunna say roughly 20 cars total.
Matt1488 10-07-11, 11:25 AM Oh good. I wasnt sure about everyone else. I just knew about the few of us
MR.SAAB 10-07-11, 11:36 AM 1 hour ride plus an ice cream stop half way through. It's like driving through the ghost town areas of the poconos where all the resorts closed down. It's pretty awesome. I drive it to go to work sometimes to just go for a nice ride
FiveStar 10-07-11, 03:45 PM I've never been to a 20-30 Saab gtg other than Carlisle. Alex and I went to jersey to meet 2 other saabers. A 2hr drive. And I plan to go to new York next week for a gtg up there.
yea, i didnt expect it to be all saabs, just wasnt sure if it was going to be the 4 saabs and the 2 cobalts, total.
seeing that there were 20 or so, im kinda made i went to a different show today.
any pics to share?
MR.SAAB 10-07-11, 10:05 PM just 1 of the 9-3 ss's lined up, and of the view we had
