Would love to, but too rich for my blood. Wish I could afford something like that .

agreed... it'd be wicked fun, but I don't KNOW any of the cats goin, so.... why spend $800 to see if it's a good time or not... prob go to a couple of the free/cheap events and see what kind of peeps they are. Cars & Copters and the lawn days events.

I'm sure [MENTION=408]Graffix[/MENTION] can chime in on the event. I'm sure he has been along a time or 2

Looks fun but I will be out of the country.

Hmmm...I could easily be persuaded into this if I'm home.

Negative, however, not because I don't want to go, but I can't take the time off nor drop the 800 haha

Just noticed the $800 per car covers 2 people . $400 each and covers accommodations .. not that bad

Past Yuppie Rally check points have included drag strips, night clubs, and wineries. To make sure everyone has a good time – the event is limited in space. The entry fee for the Northeast Rally event is $800 per car – covering event entry fee for two drivers, 2 nights’ accommodations, and closing banquet.

I attended this event last year with a friend of mine in his 2004 A4. At the time, it was called New England Rally and was not primarily sponsored by Yuppie Racing, although there were a few YR folks in attendance including the friend that I went with. As indicated on the site, YR typically had their own "Yuppie Rally" that was independent of the New England Rally. Looks like these two events have now been combined, presumably due to funding/sponsorship reasons.

It can seem steep at $400 per person but I felt I got my money's worth last year. We got to do a lot of fun driving, see some cool/interesting New England landmarks, and meet new car enthusiasts throughout the trip. It's really not bad for two nights in a hotel and breakfast each morning. I have only attended once but I can say that last year, Friday and Saturday nights entailed a good amount of drinking/partying/etc for those who were interested.
