730 would be a good time to leave from the outer boroughs to the Rockaway Mall. There is no possible way to get there by 9 if you leave at 830. We will meet up at 9 and leave shorly thereafter (we'll probably take some photos and chat but we will not be sticking around at the Olive Garden at the Rockaway Mall for very long.

dont be late!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yo scott i wanna check out a rim from Extassy he said hes at 307 exit u guy wanna go check it out since hes commin to the meet with us.. we can meet him at his shop
It might make more sense for you to meet with Joe at his shop and then meet us on the route.
I was going to call Joe when the group leaves the Rockaway Mall. It will be about 40 minutes from the Rockaway Mall to Exit 309. You and Joe could join us on Route 447 right off Exit 309 off of I80.
If you want to talk further on this, just PM me.
Best,
Scott

I am getting a lot of PMs and text messages asking about when and where the meet begins. All of this info is in the first post in this thread. I have "replied" to it here so that you can see the content of the first post here.

Everyone:
We are repeating the route of our June 6th meet on July 25th. Here are the details. If you're coming, join the sign up sheet on the bottom of this post.
WHY: Because you know you want to experience the route of our amazing June 6th meet through the Poconos, over High Point, Jersey, through the Skylands in Sussex, County, NJ and into Harriman State Park in New York. Because the 6 members who went on the route on June 6th loved it. Because lots of members wanted to go on the June 6th meet but couldn't make the date. Because your E60 was designed for exactly this kind of challenge. Because you want to explore the full performance potential of your E60.
THE PHOTOS FROM OUR ROUTE: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=78681
THE REVIEWS OF OUR ROUTE: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=77965 (pages 3-7)
WHEN: Saturday, July 25th, 9 am sharp.
WHERE: Isolated, very rural parts of the Pocono Moutains in Pennsylvania, Sussex County New Jersey (including the High Point and Vernon Valley areas), and Upstate New York into Harriman State Park.
DIFFICULTLY LEVEL: High. This is a meet for serious drivers who want to push their rides to the limit on some amazing twisties in rural areas. If your car is lowered a lot, this is not the meet for you as you may end up with a big problem on the some of the off-camber wild twisties we will challenge in the Poconos.
STARTING POINT: The starting point will be the Olive Garden Restaurant parking lot at the Rockaway Townsquare Mall in Rockaway, New Jersey, which is directly off of Interstate 80 in Morris County, New Jersey (if you are taking 80 West, it is Exit 35A). The Olive Garden is on the right of the first entrance to the mall after you have exited Interstate 80.
Here is a link to the mall's website: http://www.simon.com/mall/mall_info.aspx?ID=116
LUNCH POINT: The Dimmick Inn in Milford, Pennsylvania. 101 East Hartford Street, Milford, PA 18337 (570-296-4021). The Dimmick Inn's website is www.dimmickinn.com
ENDING POINT: Harriman State Park in New York
THE ROUTE: The route will begin at the Rockaway Townsquare Mall and head into the Poconos at East Strousdburg, Pa. From there, we'll delight in a series of twisty, windy, scenic country roads that will take us through the Pocono Mountains, passing by Pennsylvania towns such as Newfoundland, Panther, Hamlin, Hawley and Lackawaxen. Just about all of it (once we are in the Poconos) is on small, country roads that are a driver's delight. I will distribute the exact route directions at the 9 am meet-up.
My guess is that we'll stop for lunch at the Dimmick Inn about 1:00 pm. You will see a lot of the Poconos and the northeastern corner of Pennsylvania on this drive. After lunch we'll drive up and over High Point, New Jersey into Sussex County, making our way into Orange County, New York on some twisty, mountain roads and ending up at the twisties in Harriman State Park.
In total, the route is over 200 miles long and I expect that we will end up at Harriman about 3:30-4 pm.
Please gas up before the drive begins -- especially the M5s and M6s. There are two gas stations at the Rockaway/Hibernia Exit (Exit 37) off of I-80 -- one exit before the mall exit.
WHAT TO BRING:
I will distibute detailed driving directions for the meet at the 9 am meet-up at the Rockaway Townsquare Mall. This will be a long and fun drive so there will be checkpoints along the way, so everyone can catch up, should people get separated from the group throughout the various drives.
Plan on carving out the whole day for this event. The drive is longer than the one for the Bear Mountain Meet and begins with a 40 mile ride from the Rockaway Townsquare Mall on I-80 to the Poconos. Once we're in the Poconos, the real driving fun begins.
Given that the Rockaway Townsquare Mall is about 40 miles West of New York City on I-80, I encourage those attending to organize caravans to get to the Rockaway Townsquare Mall.
Here is the current list of members who have told us that they are attending.

Let the good times roll.
