FEB 17th ROAD TO VICTORY! (KoP REST STOP)

[mbs627]

I'm pretty sure a good % of the peeps going to Victory will be going to the King of Parts meet. If we're willing to go meet up in a park next to a lake in the dead of winter, I'm sure they'll be down with going to meet in Spring with the chance to win some freebies and eat food.

They sure are! But lets get some people on the bandwagon and get them to go. He asked me to do some recruting. I'm trying. I'm even going to make and drop off flyers for the meet at a few peoples homes that have modded WRX's or STI's or any modded suby. Well not any ugly riced suby's. Plus I will keep a few in my car, if I see someone or some cars on the road or parking lots.

Not to get off topic or take anything away from this meet, because it going to ROCK!!!

I made the flyers for the KOP meet, and as per request I can give some to anybody that is coming to the Victory meet that wants some to hand out. If you guy feel this is inapporiate to promote for another meet in the Victory meet thread, just let me know. I will say I'm sorry in advance if that is the case. Once again I am really looking foreward to this. I'm just proud of my 3rd grade arts and crafts skills. Plus I wanted to use my new printer, copier, scanner, camera dock.

Here's a pic:


Update: My GF can't get off work, she is a hair styleist and Sat. is her most busy day.

Not inappropriate at all. Most everyone that goes to the Victory meets will end up at the King of Parts meet.

On topic: We'll be getting ready to depart the KoP rest stop this time next week. :-D

I will be there. I can't hardly wait. It's been a very long time since I have done a meet like this or any car type of event.

I still think that the flyer looks kind of 3rd grade'ish. But what do you expect from me. I don't have any kind of great photoshop, just basic crap that came with my camers. I actually did a text doc then cut a pasted on some logos on the paper. Actualy with my hands, not on the computer, scanned it on my printer and the printed the final product.

Hey guys, I was wondering if someone could help me out with directions to this rest stop. Im coming from exit for on the NJ Turn Pike (mt laurel, NJ). If anyone knows the actual "name" of the rest stop or could find it on a google map it would be much appreciated. Thanks!

We don't name our rest stops in PA like NJ does. It is simply the King of Prussia rest area. Once you cross over the bridge from NJ, you are on 276 (Mainline PA turnpike extension). Go about 25 miles and you will past the Norristown Exit. You will know you are in Norristown because you will drive under the mid-county interchange (a massive jumble of exits and bridges). Once you are past that, keep an eye out on the right for the rest stop. It is just a few minutes down the road.

Just an update on my car: I spoke with the manage of my dealership, Said they ordered ALL gears, bearings, and syncro's on friday, and they HOPE to have my car back by the end of the week! God that's cutting it close. I really hope that I don't miss this! I am keeping my fingers crossed and hope you will wish good things for me and my car. Even if I get it back on friday, I will spend most of friday night driving my car to make sure it's ok. Then the meet will help rid myself of some of the new clutch/tranny baby miles.

Nice! Hope everything works out and your ride is rollin' smooth by Saturday morning!

Also, times to remember:

9:15 to 9:30 - Bucks county gang meetin' at 611 and Countyline Road. Leaving at 9:30 on the dot.

10:00 to about 10:20 - KoP rest stop.

11:00 to 11:30? Everyone at Marsh Creek State Park (if you get seperated, take the Downingtown exit and go north on 100 for a little bit, go left on Park Road and take that to the lake).

Gang, it will be a long hard road to Victory on Feb 17th so some of us are meeting earlier to caravan to the meet.

We will be meeting at the King of Prussia rest stop on I-276 (commonly known as the PA turnpike).

This rest stop is between the glorious exits of the Montgomery County Seat of Norristown and the national treasure that is Valley Forge on the WESTBOUND SIDE.

Please note that this area is and will be under construction so please be careful & respectful.

We will be departing the rest stop at approx. 10:15 to make it to the park in time.

PM me if you need my cell # for directions or if you think you might be late.

Chime in if you want to roll.

This is a newb fact and question in one: I've never been to King of Prussia. How would I get there from NJ turnpike? I know that exit 6 is for the PA turnpike. From there is where I don't know.

We're meeting at a rest stop on the PA turnpike (276). It will be the one on the westbound side between the Norristown Exit and the Valley Forge Exit.

The map a few posts up shows the approximate location quite well.

Take the NJ turnpike connector to the PA turnpike and go straight. Its about 25 miles after you cross the bridge into PA.
