This is a very, very interesting invite, folks.

I have been asked by the New Britain, CT Police Dept. to co-chair an upcoming Cop Car show on July 9th, 2005. This show was big last year and is going to be HUGE this year with the addition of motorcycle units and fire departments. We are expecting to have vendors there from the LAPD, the NYPD, and much, much more.

What is more is that I was asked to bring along my friends in the Marauder community. How about that? As of right now we will probably be the only civilian contingent of car owners that are being invited to this thing.

I do not know the exact number of cars that I am going to be able to bring out to this event. What I do know is that they want more cars than the one blue one that they had last year (mine, of course. :) ).

WHAT I NEED FROM YOU is some idea of how many here are willing to MAKE A COMMITMENT to travel with their car from wherever they are to this show, in New Britain, CT, on the above date. The time will be from 8-5 and you will be expected to be there on time and stay all day.

In essence, please do not reply unless you are sure of your being able to commit to the entire time frame. I have a real responsibility to the NBPD and to this show so I cannot invite anyone that cannot truly commit to this.

I hope that I have given all of you enough time to look at your schedules and work this out. If you can make it, post here.

Again, there will be a car limit. I don't know what it is yet but I am sure that we will exceed that with the participation that this group is capable of.

Best,

Dan

PS: Did I mention that there might be a burnout show? Oh, yes.

Yikes, 511 miles. I might be able to pull it off, though.

That's a 5 or maybe a 6 hour drive in a Marauder. :)

Dan,
This sounds like it would be a lot of fun. I am interested. Only trouble is, would I bring the Marauder or the Caprice 9C1? Only kidding, I'll bring the Marauder.

Is the event happening rain or shine?

Hey Motor City Crew? Road trip? I haven't been to the East Coast in a couple years. We could leave rubber from Detroit all the way to CT! Just a teaser idea... let me know if anyone wants to do it, since I probably wouldn't solo. BTW, we could terrorize NYC while we're in the neighborhood... do some things, ect...

Guys,

I am glad that the excitement is growing so quickly. I don't know how many spots I will have for our cars there so hold off on making those hotel reservations. :)

On the other hand, you can all rest assured that we will do some cruising on the Pike that night after the show.

I don't have a rain date as yet.

Caprice Cars are NOT, oh wait, I mean to say NOT invited!!! :P

I'll try to answer questions as they come up.

You'll do no such thing while you are here,
unless you want to be ESCORTED through the state...
I like my status and I'd like to keep it this way... :up:
