Fall's Foliage "Exotics Run" - October 22

Sounds like you guy's had fun, I got to the meet spot at 8:50 and everyone was gone .... i went to FOCNJ and at around 12:30 and hung out with some guys and watched the race.. hope i can make it on time to the next one

 

Some very hot cars there today. My favs, in no particular order:

The black GT2 with the carbon wing- makes me want one again.

My old BBi- looking fabulous- really regret selling that car...

Wil de Groot's steroidal 308- what a thing of beauty- let the 308 haters challenge him once he ups the hp even more-

The blue Series 1 Countach that showed up right before you guys and gals started off.

There was a mid-90's black Diablo that I hadn't seen before that looked pristine and the Lambos were out in full force.
That Challenge car wasn't too shabby either.

Looking forward to the pics. I 'retired' after the meet and greet to go to work, and am still at it. (This is a well-earned break).
Regards to all...

 

Hey how's it going, off of pure speculation is this the guy with the Red Diablo i was talking to?? If so nice meeting you and gorgeous car, i was the guy in the leather jacket , we also talked about a little law related stuff!

Great run guys, too bad i wasnt driving my car though

Sounds like you had fun... to bad I couldn't make this one!!! Next time and I will have a few more tricks by then. he he

 

Carrera GT accident. Wow, That must have been a sight. Hope he is okay.

 

Thanks to Hovik for organizing the run. I had a blast! Great to meet you guys...so many cool rides. I was in the red Murcie and would have been the lone straggler after arriving late but Hovik kept me in the loop and I was able to finally catch up, otherwise I'd still be cruising through Peeksill with a very "lost" look on my face.
Hope the guy in the GT is OK.

Well guys thanks for the best meet and drive ever in the history of the world!! Once we got past the GWB nightmare it was a blast! I definatly have not ever driven that fast through Bear Mountain ever before... there are usually cops every mile in there but today it was nice and clear.

To the guy with the silver F430 who I followed just before we got to the restaurant- that car is amazing!!!

To the owners of the older 90's model Lambos- those cars look so menacing, I love it!

To the guys that got us lost, two or three times- why did I follow you????? Oh yeah cause I was taking photos and videos!

And to Hovik- thanks for organizing a great incident-free 200 mile trip with mind blowing exotics!! I hope you made out OK with the jerks at the restaurant!
So when do we get the DVD?

 

Let me answer that...

Video from this run can be expected shortly (week or so) - no teasers - full video.

A DVD is something to work on through the winter - no deadline yet.

Stay patient. I'm sure others will post their footage asap.

 

After a great day of no accidents or anything(not that i knew of), we were driving home, and on the way next to the Palisades PKY, the long road leading to fortlee. My dad and I noticed alot of cops and a flatbed. So we were guessing a bad car accident. Well not only was it a bad car accident, but it was a Porsche GT crashed into the trees and over the lawn and everything. It was really bad and the whole car was pretty banged up. He must of been one of the 4 porsche GT that was on the P car run. Thanks for the run again.

From what i can see...doesnt look too good..hope he/she made it out alright

 

Thanks hovik for setting up a tight run. Just wish I didn't get lost so much (twice).

I especially liked the part where the 575 was leading us at 120mph plus through traffic. Damn she can drove the crap outta that car. Must've been quite a sight to see the ferraris ripping it up from the rear.

Girlfriend got sick so i had to cut out early. Wish I could've stayed to chat some more with you guys. Well, there's always next year.

 

Hi Jason,

Jeff here. Just wanted to say thanks for finding me I was in the red Murcie following you and would have likely been "lost-er" without you. Your 430 is beautiful, sounded BADASS from behind. Sorry to hear about the G/F, hope she's OK now.
Keep in touch, perhaps we can all do some informal runs before the snow hits.
Or...like we do in my Hummer club (boy, that sounds pretty gay) we can do a snow run!

Great time today, I'm still pumped!

Hovik...you da man!

-Jeff

 

Thanks That was a hot murci! Looks like a spaceship from behind. You definitely gotta get a louder exhaust, make it sound as awesome as it looks.

 

I agree, I have the Quicksilver pipes and even installed the secondary cat replace pipes and honestly was disappointed. At higher RPM's it's nice but low end sucks in my opinion. Not sure what to do aftre investing in the QS. Maybe the primary cats...we'll see.
Talk to you soon, off to watch some TV and fall asleep...

Be well.

 

Yea!.... After pulling over in the middle of the highway to consider if we were lost or not, my poor E36 couldn't quite keep up and I ended up in Stamford.... Yup, missed the turn to the TapanZee bridge by a fair bit. Hope the rest of the run worked out for everyone, it was nice seeing everyone at the start

But good job Hovik for setting it all up.. Cheers!

 

thanks for the ride zitro. The lambo is awesome.


Thanks for the awesome ride in the 360 spider Noah. After I got out of the 360 spider, I feel as though I was violated by the GDC Ford GT and Rob's vette on the ride up. ******** they are loud!! The Ford GT makes the 360 spider sound like a prius.

oh, and that accident was pretty crazy! That mustang must have been going 50 mph. And the other car went pretty airborne. Anything on the news about that? Are the people ok?

And a big thanks to Brandon (Ferrari0234) for the ride back to the philly area. You are a true friend, man. This deed will not go unnoticed in the future. I owe you big time.

 

BIG THANKS TO BRANDON FROM THE KOP GROUP! YOU SAVED US A LOT OF CONFUSION... especially after we all got split up and Drew and I were the only car with nav (but no room!).

We all owe you a drink or SOMETHING. Such a great help.

 

So where are the pics? My brother spotted you all...

He says to me "There must have been some event -- there was a fleet of Ferraris driving together..."

 

LOL I shook and got frightened when that vette came on the side of me and downshifted or gunned it. Then it happened again with the Celica GT-Four.

 

Actually, come to think about it, we saw a red 360 w/ challenge rear grill and a red Ford GT w/ white stripes on the way back. I assume it was those guys?

 

there was a ton of people who were scared. I saw drivers flinching. My ears hurt for about 3 hrs. They still hurt a little.

 

I was the guy in the Yellow Lambo Gallardo with the loud-ass exhaust... Thank you to all for making us feel welcome today. Special thanks to Matthew B. of Manhattan Motorcars for the invite... We look forward to the next one and will have a greater showing from my end of Long Island.... I might have my friend breakout the McLaren F1

Anyway, great run, safe and sound back in Long Island, hope everyone made it home safely.... Special thanks to Mr. Skyline GTR - awesome car... will be in touch....

Seth

 

Seth thanks alot your a great guy, had alot of fun today. Hope we can do it again sometime, thanks alot Steve

 

Seth after hearing/seeing your Gallardo, i was sold, Gallardo's are crazy! Where on LI are you, did you have egear or 6speed would love to hear your impressions!

 

I didn't make it unfortunately this time. Sounds like it was a hell of a time though....damn. Is there going to be one in the spring?
