I drive a Civic. 30-35mpg on the highway. You don't get all that much better in the US without going to a really small or ---smurfy--- car.
I live three+ hours from the place.

OK, and there I was asuming you'd drive a petrol guzzling Town Car :D
Sorry about that, was just kidding really, I understand, 6 hours of driving is a lot. I will have to drive almost 4 hours, but I will stay the night at Weirs beach. And it's about as close as I will ever be to the best classic arcade collection I'll ever be so it's worth every penny for me. I'd never forgive myself if I didn't do it while being so close to it :D
P.S. The Civic is a nice car. I drove an Accord Tourer for a while (a Stationcar, can't find it on the US Honda site ? Don't they sell it there ?? http://honda.nl/content/car/18296_42062.html
Amazing car. It was a Diesel, but you could never tell and the power of the engine was formidable. Nice driving car, but they are freaking expensive here.

By the lack of response it seems as though there will be no official NEBYOAC meet this time...
Bummer. :hissy:

I'd love to, but with my company moving in September and me being out of the country for the first week, I don't think I can make any definite plans until the day before. :cry:
Level42:
OK guys, it's a real shame, but I think we have to call this whole thing off then. There was also one thing I hadn't concidered before: although my uncle & aunt are retired now, my cousins are really busy during the week, so probably we will try to visit them in the weekends. This probably means I will try to target at a working day to visit Funspot, because I figure it will be a lot more quite then.
This is not 100% sure yet, but likely. So thanks everyone for cosidering coming.
However:
If only one of you still can now say he is definitly there on august 9th, I will be there ! Just let me know ASAP :D Plane is almost leavind ;)

OK, shame I won't meet any of you guys.....
Only one day before I leave......can anybody still recommand a nice, not too expensive place to stay near Weirs Beach ?
Anduhmmmmm, those Funspot coupons, how do they work ? I read that when you pay $20,- in one go you will pay $0,16 per token. So is that coupon adding those 50 free tokens on top of that ?
If my calculations are right that would give you 125+50=175 tokens for 20 bucks........
That's a lot......even for a desperate fanatic from Europe who hasn't seen any of these classics either never before or not for a VERY long time :D
