Not Sure, I live in NYC, and most events and clubs are either in Manhattan or upstate. The only reason I Am ever in suffolk county is when I am speeding down the Long Island Expressway for fun.

Feeling-good

And not for nothing,  the Bronx is only a 45 minute drive away and it's worth considering clubs in a slightly larger radius cuz they got some goodies

There are no Bronx clubs.  A few popular spots on nice days.  I believe Scarsdale has a Thursday night club.

Okay that's cool.  Thanks for the info.

Out near exit 54 I was able to drive around 95-100 mph without a problem. Even past exit 70, the "traffic" that is there is all doing 80 mph. 55 mph is an absolutely insane ridiculous speed limit. Apparently 10 miles of nothing but trees on either side isn't "rural" enough to qualify for a 65 mph speed limit, it's too faaassstttt.

Yeah, going over 55 on this is really "speeding"
