Steve,
I checked the NNJ site. There doesn't appear to be any way to register. Are we just going to do walk up registration?

The first service plaza, on the NJ Trp. is approximately 5 miles north of exit 6 (Pa. turnpike). this is the best place to buy gas, cheaper than in Pa......... CAUTION! Fill to ONLY 3/8th tank, so you can race with only 1/4 tank at Giant's Stadium. We should leave that fuel stop at 7:30am, the latest!!
As far as lunch is concerned, The event runs continuously (no lunch breaks), but with lots of participants, you will only have to work one session, therefore giving you lots of time to grab a bite. I usually bring a cooler with bottles of COLD water and bite size snacks (carrots, grapes, cherries, Jalapeno pepers, etc. there are NO places to buy food at the sports complex unless you like to wait for the Giants opener in September.

After the event ends, there are several places to sit in AC and chug a few liters of brew.

Hey Mike - sorry for belated reply - been playing phone tag with NNJR PCA guy
He is planning to setting up online registration via motorsportreg.com (like us!) but hasn't got 'round to it yet -- however, as PCA members we do not need to pre-reg as we are guaranteed a spot .... as long as you bring your PCA membership card

I do not know the name of the service plaza, but you can't miss it. The ride to Giants Stadium is 1 hr from there. Arriving at 8:30 will give anyone plenty of time to register and walk the course SEVERAL times.
hock:hock: But I must say that they do not have motels there, so if you plan to be there at "7pm" you may end up sleeping in your car till I arrive the next morning.

See you guys at the service station. Nick maybe I will follow you up instead of back.

UPDATE - Lets meet at "The first service plaza, on the NJ Trp. is approximately 5 miles north of exit 6 (Pa. turnpike)'' at 7am to leave at 7.15am on the dot --- I think this is Woodrow Wilson but don't ask me, I'm English.
If any problems, lets just meet at Giants stadium
I'll PM those I know are coming with my cell number
Cheers
Steve
