The Cars of NERR
 

As some of you know, I go on a 2-3 day cruise every October and we've been doing it for 7 years now. It consists of all types American Muscle Cars. Absolutely no rice burners allowed, although we have had a Lotus join us once (exotics are ok )

Here is a quick little montage of the cars we've had over the years.

Hope you guys like it

what is the planned rout for this year.

Nice video TJ. I'd like to get in on this for one or two nights. Probably with my son who will be 12 in October.

Starting on the North Shore in MA and ending up in Burlington, VT before it's all over. Best way to find out all the details, is to head over to the forum on NERR's website

That would be awesome. We've had a few people take their kids on past runs, but the funny thing is that most of the time they would bring their daughters. The kids seem to really love it, if you give them "camera duty" while you're driving. It really makes them feel involved

Plus is you're bringing that '69, we can NEVER get enough classics!

Sounds good! I'd probably bring the 68.

Sounds great!

We might have one other '68 joining us this year. It's got an old school pro-street look to it and it was just in the WAAF booth at the International auto show in Boston.

Great!!! It looks like you've got 1st gens to 5th gens going.

I'm going to try to talk my wife into going too, but when I mention anything that has to do with cars she starts looking at me cross-eyed.

We always need more 1st gens. I'll probably bring my '69

Believe it or not, many of the guys also attend the HRPT by themselves, because the wives hate that type of stuff, but this trip is actually looked forward to by the wives. This is the ONLY car event that a lot of the women will attend all year. We've even had some women take their own cars.

This isn't just a big corporate backed road trip cruising up a highway somewhere, or a drag race from stop to stop by a bunch of young kids, who own their first fast car and feel they have something to prove.

This is a very laidback event driving down different scenic byways, with plenty of cool stops planned along the way and no rush to get to them. The average age is probably around 40 and most of the people have multiple toys to chose from.

The biggest compliment I hear from the new people each year, is how the entire group is so welcoming to everyone.

The only important advice I can really give, is that if you're serious about attending, don't wait to long to book your rooms. To many people lose out every year because they wait until the last minute and the rooms are all gone

Tell your wife that if she doesn't like it, she can have a money back guarantee (just don't tell her that it was free to start with).

I think that my biggest selling point is the leaves. lol. She loves all the colors of leaf-peeping season and that should be the #1 selling point.

I'm about 98% sure that at least 2 of us will be in.

I'm hoping a few other nef-ba folks might join in even if it's only for 1 night.

The leaves are always a big draw. That is one of the biggest reasons we always go during the first weekend of October, instead of Columbus Day weekend.

By going on the weekend we do, we are able to avoid most of the other "peepers" that wait until the holiday weekend.

I notice that a lot of cruises on this forum get cancelled if it rains, but ours goes off no matter what the weather brings. After a full year of planning and people always scheduling their vacation time around this trip, a little rain doesn't stop them. We've had some of our best trips with "less than ideal" weather.

This is definitely shaping up to be our largest attended trip to date
