No revving, 2 step/burble exhibitions, burnouts, donuts, loud music or foul behavior. No alcohol or drugs. We will be sharing the path with hikers and bird watchers of all ages so we need to simply chill and talk e46 M3. 3. This is a meet from 11AM-3PM. Nothing else. There are no official fun runs or drives. You are free to assemble as you wish before or after the event. 4. NJ State Troopers monitor this area and the Palisades Interstate Parkway closely. Do not speed into or out of the event. 5. Roll in time: 11:00AM-1PM. Since we have access to this private road, parking needs to be neat and orderly. 6. There will be no DJ or vendors. This is just a meet, like most cars & coffee events. Well, with exclusive parking that requires pre-registration. 7. There is an on site café with food, drink and restrooms. Menu here. 8. If you are traveling on 95 North, consider taking the local/lower lanes when you get near the GW Bridge. You should get through the traffic hell quicker.
