After playing around with dates and hotel prices the Sheraton Seems like a good option since its ocean front and has a Private garage with Free parking

Yes, please reserve hotel rooms. Feel free to message me at 347-420-2393 for any questions. Also, let me know when you booked your hotel so I can keep a head count.

Hate to hijack a thread like this but I'm only doing it because I've been searching for fellow vettes in/near NYC to do meets or drives. Can't seem to ever find a group or hear about any.

I am from Long Island. Usually Sunday morning I go by Captree and OBI. Many other C7 owners attend as well.

A couple of good clubs here on LI if you're interested, I hear good things about Long Island Corvette Owners Association (LICOA) and I belonged to Corvette Society for a few years, GREAT bunch of guys and it's President Stan is as dedicated a Corvette guy you'll ever meet. They arrange several runs a year, have an annual BBQ and a yearly show at IIRC Arnold Chevrolet. They also meet every Friday night at (I think) a local Auto Zone for socializing. Only reason I'm not a member anymore is because I'm not a club kinda guy, pretty much do my own thing but if that ever changed I'd be right back with them. Good luck!

Thanks guys. I've heard about the captree sunday morning meets (friend does automotive photography out there) so I'll be sure to head out there sooner or later.


I never used to be a club kinda guy either and still feel the same way but ever since I've had the GS, I've been wanting to ride out with fellow vettes and see their mods, hear their exhausts, etc. Thinking of going towards either a Borla ATAK or Corsa Xtreme but hearing it in person would seal the deal!


I'll keep the suggestions into consideration, thanks again
