SOUTH Jersey RotorFest Caravan

Well since every other state is having a caravan, I figured I’d at least see if anyone else was driving up. I’m going to be the slow poke since I’ll be trailering my FD up.

I will be departing my house in Sicklerville NJ, @ 8:30 am, exit 38 off the expressway.. Taking the AC Expressway to 295, to the NJTP. I’m going to make a stop over @ the Woodrow Wilson rest stop (the one between exit 7 and exit 7A) I should get there @9:30 and will stay till 10:00 am then will get back on the TP.

Now 295 all the way up is the straighter run, but there are no rest stops. But if no one else is going this way, or since I know ill be the slowest and no one wants to hang with the slow guy ill just ride 295 up.
But I figure we could all meet @ one place or know which roads each other are taking.

The first time we caravanned up it was awesome, just sucks ill be hauling the car up rather than driving it.

So if anyone is going up or wants a ride, I got 2 seats open in the tow vehicle.
My info
1 Jackson Lane
Sicklerville, NJ 08081

Cell -609-760-6077

Guessing we will should meet @ the hotel right b4 the TP entrance, or there is a corporate building @ the light right b4 that. Either one will have adequate meeting space. Figure we should be meeting/ leaving @ 9:05 unless everyone wants to go up later. But that time schedule is conservative. We will prob be there as, if not right b4 the gates open.
Feel free to post if someone has a better suggested time. I also believe there may be a few of us meeting @ Jim’s shop since he is trailoring his race car up. Ill try to find out what time he is leaving so we can have a huge caravan.

So Exit 4 off of the NJTP, If you guys are coming north you will want to get on RT 73 South, then turn around @ the next light and head back towards the TP. You will be making a left @ the light (about ¼ mi from the merge) there is not a all turns or jug handle. @ the light there will be a corporate building on the left, and a Luk oil on the right. The hotel is the Wyndham Mount Laurel, @1111 Route 73 Mount Laurel NJ 08054

I think we should start exchanging phone #’s. here’s mine again 609-760-6077

ignore above post

Ok so I read the thread on the DE,MA,VA people and it seems like they are meeting @ exit 5 off the NJTP

“””well if u get off at exit 5 and make a left at that light... there are 2 gas stations right there... we can all meet up in the fridays/home depot parking lot... and 295 isn't even a mile away form there. and from the tp 295 is the fastest way to rotorfest.”””

SO for everyone from south Jersey you want to meet up @ the wyndam, then catch up with everyone from ma,va,nc @ exit 5 and scrach the rest stop between 7 and exit 7A? Since that seems to be their plan?

Seems Like it would work best.


So lets say 9:20 depart wyndam hotel, head to exit 5 and meet the rest of the crew? This way if anyone over sleeps they can still meet up with us @ exit 5. And that figuring the other caravan leaves @ 9 and takes their time and makes it to exit 5 in 45min from Christiana DE Which on Sunday morning in a rex should be generous amount of time

I don’t know, I’m horrible @ planning; I just can’t wait to go. If anyone has any suggestions post up. But I think this should work the best to give everyone an opportunity to meet up.

I think it would be better to meet up at the gas station. There are alot of hotels at that one intersection. The lucas oil gas station stands out more so it would be easier to find i think. There is also an exit from 295 right bye there too, exit 36 or 37 i think, so people can take 295 there if its easier. I'll get an exact adress of the lucas oil station tomorrow so people can mapquest it. I'll try to get the adress for the wyndam also.
