Jon Merricks Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 I'm going to try and make Area 8 this year. Anybody going, what day are you shooting, anything I need to know about Allentown, PA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Schwab Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 I'm going. Shooting Saturday in Limited-10. If you'd like to have some fun while you're in the area go to Hershey Park in Harrisburg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nik Habicht Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 I'm shooting it. 99 % certain it's Saturday. I'm sitting in the Comfort Inn in Allentown at the moment (taking the Todd Jarrrett Class at Topton) and would heartily recommend it as a good place to stay. 610-391-0344. I imagine Dave Miller will post or send a list of mathc hotels soon..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Merricks Posted June 2, 2003 Author Share Posted June 2, 2003 I just heard from Tina and Sunday is full so I'll ask if there is room to squad with one of you on Saturday. Guess I'll go ahead and find a place to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nik Habicht Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 I'm rolling up late Friday night --- might not get ther until midnight --- and leaving Sunday after Lunch. Sunday I'll try and shoot the match with a camera..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nik Habicht Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 The people I usually shoot with are all shooting Sunday. If either one of you guys, or anyone else from the forums wants to wind up in a squad with me, I wouldn't mind if that works out.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Merricks Posted June 5, 2003 Author Share Posted June 5, 2003 Hope everybody has sent in their money. Saturday and Sunday are full, but there is still room for Friday. The stages are posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORCA Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 Looks like I'm shooting Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Merricks Posted July 10, 2003 Author Share Posted July 10, 2003 Stage 8 Anybody have a guess what HHF in limited for stage 8 will be. My guess 12 sec 6-8 points down. So around 9.5HF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORCA Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 I don't have a guess on stage 8, but I think you might be close. Maybe Phil will give you a estimate on how long it will take him (then I can multiply that by 2). What are the ranges like at Topton? Does anybody know if there are any gun laws people traveling from Virginia need to be aware of going through Maryland and in Pennsylvania? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Grube Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Jon, I'd guess TJ and Phil will be around 9.5 sec and down 5-8 points. HHF around 11.5 - 12. Orca, Gun and ammo seperate and not accessible to the driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Schwab Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 Orca, Gun and ammo seperate and not accessible to the driver. Yeah, and in MD they consider loaded mags to be a loaded gun even if the mags and gun are stored separately, so on the way home make sure you fully download all mags.

dpeters8445 Posted July 12, 2003 Share Posted July 12, 2003 I'll be shooting on Friday. I practiced stage 8 today in practice and my best time was 14.10 with 2 down, but for the most part I averaged 15.20 with 6 down. Looks like a great match. I can't wait.

Jon Merricks Posted July 21, 2003 Author Share Posted July 21, 2003 Good to see ya agian Bill and 3rd over all not to bad. Glad I finally got to meet Chris, 1st C. Nik, I heard your name over the radio from the chrono and ran up the hill but must have missed ya. Of course I didnt have any real good stages and really bombed the last two of the day, 1 & 2. (Why call your shots if your not going to make them up?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Schwab Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Nice seeing you again too Jon. Next time we should try squadding up together. Are you going to the VA-MD Section Match in October? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Merricks Posted July 21, 2003 Author Share Posted July 21, 2003 I really have thought that far ahead but I bet I could be talked in to it. I'll look up the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 This was my first major match. Great experiance even though I didn't shoot all that well. The stages were good , weather good and the people great. The facility was top notch. Too bad they won't have it there again next year , but it sounded like the match director was burned out after two years of running this show. They packed in a ton of shooters (> 300 I believe). It was a long day of shooting on Sunday with 11 stages in the heat , but well worth it with cool stages like "Car Jackers" and "Construction Zone". I want another crack at those two.
