Anyone on this site from New London, CT

[09mageec]

I keep seeing an Alpine White 330ci Convertible driving around in the same area and town I live in, pretty dark tints, looks nicely kept. Does this belong to anyone on this forum!?

[cakM3]

I frequently come down to New London/Norwich area. You might see me in either my ///M or ZHP :biggrin

[danewilson77]

I will be there June 6th through the 9th...lol. No ride though.

[cakM3]

Dane,

I read your post about your mishap. Sorry to hear about it bro...

[danewilson77]

Thanks brutha. You can only keep these cars as nice as others allow....unless you garage it a lot.

I wouldn't be surprised :biggrin Now you will see my ZHP as well :thumbsup! A cruise sounds like a good idea but it's harder for me to do during the weekdays.

Flying in to Providence on Sunday. My flight gets in at 1:53PM, flight number 6054 on United Airlines.

Dane,

I'm just 10 minutes down the road from TF Greene off of I-95. Do you need a ride? I can come pick you up and take you wherever you need to go :biggrin!

If so...let me know... and welcome to the neighborhood in advance! :biggrin

The Navy is getting me a rental car. My plans are to hit the first store I see in RI....to buy some soda pops. :o

Thanks for the offer. You are more than welcome to come have a soda pop though.....or....we can hang out...whatever. I won't be doing anything beyond 1700 each day...that I know of.

No La Familia, no ZHP, no nothing! Just me in a 10x10 room. Pssst...this is when I get into trouble.

Are you going to be working in Newport or are you going down to CT? I used to be in the Navy and am now working in Newport. Let me know what works for you Dane and I'll meet up with you. :thumbsup

Ahhh Groton and Navy......This to me means the Sub base. But we deff have to do something! Groton is legit a 7 min drive over the bridge for me, Will you be here during the weekend so that Botond will be able to come over from Birdgeport and cakM3 will also be able to join?

[danewilson77]

I will be there from Sunday, June 5th...through Thursday, June 9th. I got tagged with this, last minute...and already had the meet planned at my place....so...this really threw a wrench into things.

I am down for anything....evening of June 5th,6th,7th, and/or 8th...then...gotta get home (on the 9th) to set things up for the peeps.

Dane has my number so I'm down for a meet anytime next week except for Wednesday (classes). Let me know what works for you guys :biggrin

[az3579]

If it's in CT, I can still go, but anything venturing into RI is way too far away for my tastes. I still have to get up at 0530 the next morning regardless of which day it is.

Let me know what y'all are doing. I'm free on Sunday, if you wanna meet up the day of arrival...

[danewilson77]

I will be in CT.

Sunday sounds good to me too. Let me know what works best for you Dane and everyone :biggrin

[09mageec]

Im down for what ever day dude, and Sunday is awesome, but Dane I guess gets in on Sun. eve. What time will that be around Dane?

[danewilson77]

Address:

Best Western (Damn...not Mariott)
360 route 12
Groton, CT 06340

860.445.8000

[09mageec]

How does 3 or 4pm on Sunday sound for everyone?? And Botond, would you be able to meet up near the address Dane posted? Its like 5 more min up the highway than the walmart we met at that time. I dont have a cell right now so if your tyring to text me sorry bud.

[az3579]

That time is fine by me, as long as DW is ready by then.

So DW, 15:00 good for you? And Charlie?

Cameron and I aredown.

[danewilson77]

1500 Sunday?

[az3579]

1500 Sunday?

Yes... Is that good with everyone? So far it's DW, Cameron, Charlie, and myself...

[danewilson77]

IDK....I get into Providence at 1358.....gotta get my car......prolly find out where I'm gonna live......then go out. Can we plan on dinner and drinks?

[az3579]

I'm sure it can be arranged, in which case, would 1600 work better for you? Later?

[danewilson77]

4 or 5 is gonna be best. I could give you guys a call from my hotel...

[az3579]

You haz my #; I think I have the farthest ride so just need advance notice...

[danewilson77]

ok......I will give you advance notice. How far are you driving?

[cakM3]

Probably 5pm will work out best. This way BP will have plenty of time to get up here and DW can get set up before going out for dinner/drinks. I'm only 45 minutes up the road by Providence so whatever time is okay with me. Just let me know what you guys want to do :thumbsup

[09mageec]

Ok so lets do 5pm this Sunday at the hotel where Dane is staying? Sound good for everyone?

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Hopefully the CT Mafia will take care of you during the days you are there. Thanks in advance, CT Mafia.

ok......I will give you advance notice. How far are you driving?

I am 69.3 miles away, and would take me about an hour and maybe a quarter if I'm driving fuel efficiently (which, in this economy, I will be :shifty)...


Departure time for me is no object, and personally have always been a fan of "the earlier the better". I'm not going anything whatsoever on Sunday, so I can leave any time.

Sounds like everyone else is closer, which is good, giving them some flexibility. I'm super flexible with my time on Sun.




For me, the later the worse; I have to get up 0530 the next morning for work, and I don't handle waking up very well, so the earlier I get to bed the better. :(

[danewilson77]

Met up with the CT crew this afternoon...a big shout out to BP for setting up my ZHP :applause

I'm glad you have the tools to help out. I was impressed by what you could do! To everyone else reading this post....BP will be at the reunion so if there's anything you desire to get coded in your bimmers be sure to talk to BP about it. I got my OEM alarm activated and got other nice goodies...Thanks BP!!! Great meeting you and everyone today! Let me know when you guys are ready for a good detail :thumbsup

Marcus, Dane is awesome. Glad I got the chance to meet up with him. Unfortunately, my schedule won't sync with the reunion. Hopefully there will be another next year and the planets will align so I can make the next one :biggrin

[Marcus-SanDiego]

It's my understanding that we're trying to make the reunion an annual event.

[danewilson77]

It's my understanding that we're trying to make the reunion an annual event.

That's correct. I am shooting for 100 cars next year. Events will be about the same (although I am always open to your ideas).

I am going to get an early start on sponsorship, and it will obviously not be held at my house. I have some off site locations that will knock you guys out, that will support a meet type enviroment with 100+ cars.

Doing the first one at my place is the right answer though. I wanted to share, of myself, and open my home, to you guys...because the family deserves it. Don't get too excited....its pretty modest.

We'll get some lessons learned out of this meet, this year, and apply them to next year. I just really appreciate all of you guys.
