:gizz: So in light of the success of NEAI 2016 in beautiful Central Connecticut, it has come time to discuss NEAI 2017. Some possible locations include Central Connecticut (again) and Maine. We are in the earliest planning stages of our next get together, shooting for sometime in April for Connecticut, or August for Maine. We will probably do both, the Connecticut event will be open to everyone, most likely, Maine event seems likely to be a smaller get together for the core group. You know who you are. If anyone wants to host, in any New England state, that would also be welcome. Discuss! As always, the IRC Channel is a great place to talk about rust and homoerotic innuendo with other losers. irc.synirc.net #newenglandai :gizz:

What have you assholes done now?
If anyone's on the fence, this is intensely fun rednecking all around.

It's also where this video came from

I'm actually good the weekends of April 1, 8, and 29. I think I'm free the whole of August but I'm gonna have to check on that one again in like June.

Someone get one of them new-fangled google docs or polls or what have you going for available weekends.

I'm tentatively in, I recommend we don't do april 15 because I might be going somewhere, and also...

I recommend it be on april 8 because Stafford Motor Speedway swapmeet is april 9, and takes place maybe 15-20min away, so we can go there and hungover regret-buy clapped out busted gearhead poo poo we will never use.

I'll hopefully be able to make it this year. I had to bail on NEAI '16 at the last minute because I was too busy playing in the sweet new pool in my basement that had shown up right as I was getting ready to head out.

So far, the only weekend I have firmly booked up is June 10, but should be free most others. I'm tentatively house shopping atm though, so there's a small chance that's subject to change.

April is Audit Month for me, so we'll see how that goes but I'll try to make it. Last year was entertaining.

OK, so right now we are talking about April as working for most people? I have to get Pipkin in here to confirm he actually wants to do it. He said he wanted to, but we definitely need some confirmation from him. He may or may not have been wasted, I can't remember.

As usual, I'm in given that shenanigans are not planned during my military duty weekends.

31Mar/1-2 APR

05-07 May

And the entire month of June are out for mil reasons. Anything else is negotiable.

August is a bit far away to consider but AUG 4-6 and SEP 9-10 are my drill dates around then.

So are we doing this poo poo or what? It looks like so far the 22nd/29th or 13th are the best dates for everyone.

PS: whether or not we do this the 8th I'm down for stafford swapmeet the 9th. I need moreless yard art

Correct me if I'm wrong, but we still no confirmation on a venue for this year. Noone wants to actually do this. I can't say I blame them.

Tentatively, we can likely use my aunt's land in Ludlow, VT on a lake, fires allowed, boating, nobody is there in the summer as its all ski bums.


Let me know what people think of this idea. There's just not a ton of parking and anyone with 4x4 might have to go across the street and primitive camp or at least park.

That night we performed the rite and opened the gate.
Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.


I remember Hollands, I was looking for wheels for a POS Focus and one of their guys went around the yard with me for an hour looking for them and the center caps. Cools guys.

Sam's is always a good bet. Lots of trucks, although often stripped.

Holland's is a mixed bag, half the time they try to rape me, other times they're decent.

Jack's used auto in billerica
Sam's in Worcester
Standard in Worcester if you don't mind paying out the rear end
Amherst Oakham in Oakham, price depends on whether it's the owner (NO LOW BALLERS I KNOW WHAT I GOT) or the workers (gently caress it just gimme 50 for all of that)
Leveilles in Somers CT
Picknpull in Johnston and Cumberland RI
Everett's in Brockton, tend to be cheap and well organized
Brockton Auto parts if you want to feel like you got dropped in what's left of a drone-struck Somalian terror cell camp in backwoods Alabama that somehow was planning on building bombs out of stacks of worthless smashed cars caked in mud by dumping them in a swamp (don't bother even going)

There are a few others but those are the ones that come to mind. Johnston, Cumberland, and Sam's are the first 3 on my list, then Amherst Oakham if I'm desperate, then the rest. I wish Everett's wasn't 1.5 hours away, BAP I don't visit even if I'm next door at Everett's because there aren't enough tetanus shots in the world to get me to fruitlessly wander through that hopeless Lord of the Flies shithole again.
