Tampa Mini Meet @ Sonics - FEB 10th.

Hey guys,

Decided to make a thread to set up the next meet date for our Tampa Meet. Saturday nights are Sonics is always jumping with a shitload of street tuners around 8-9pm the earliest. I figured we could get together and represent AZ over there early evening, grab a bite to eat, and show everyone else what's up. If you're down, add your name to the list for the meet.

And on top of that, a mini-cruize to run into the other tuners over the Gandy Bridge is always a good show


Meet at Sonics:

1. joe80055 (2G TL-P, Tampa)

You're going to head down Dale Mabry toward the air force base. Once you hit Gandy Blvd, make a right, go under the overpass and go through several lights. The Sonics you'll see will be on your right hand side. Just look for a shitload of tuner cars ... but look for the ones pimpin in acuras... that'll be us, lol

Still awaiting acurabon's response.

Once After I got to work on wednesday, and payday's thursday, I'm just going to get the Canon SD930 to take some awesome shots, save... and then return it to finish getting parts for the 6MT.

Off Topic: anyone know of any good salvage yards here in tampa? Looking for the Master Clutch Cylinder, they usually go for $50-80 used.

UCF part of Orlando, so it depends on how bad I4 is, i've made the tip in a little over an hour, but it has also taken over 3. Hopefully I4 will be nice, and i will have no problems. The Tampa side of it is much better than the Orlando part, the speed limit is 50 over here.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that'll drive 1+ hours to get to such an event. The worst I've done was drive 22 hrs to a 4 hour meet. Now I'm stuck here with you guys and a shitty tranny. lol

Already got the 6-speed!

Alright.. as for I4... Are you coming from East or West? If you want, i can meet up with you at the Ashley Dr. exit off of exit 44 for Downtown Tampa. Or would you rather have directions straight all the way to the sonics itself?

Joe...am I the only one who saw the humor in that question?

So I see you are trying to hook up the 6-speed, best of luck with that. I just noticed that ya'll are havin' Tampa meets....about time! My wife is going to a friends wedding, so I'll be home with the kids. Give me an advance on the next one

^dinner with the fam?... Acurazine comes first! have them reschedule or something. lol


Taylor, If you come off exit 44, where you can catch Ashley Drive, I'll be more than glad to wait for you over there and take you with me to the meet. If you want also, here's directions all the way from orlando:

Take the ramp onto I-4 W toward Tampa
Take the exit onto I-275 S
Merge onto N Ashley Dr via exit 44 to Downtown-West
Turn Right at Kennedy Blvd
Turn Left at Dale Mabry Blvd
Turn Right onto Gandy Blvd. The sonics should be onto the right hand side.
