does anyone here in Gainesville have a white 07-08 TL in a complex called wildflower? I was up there friday night in the 760 for some work at UF! I might be up there soon again, some of us should meet up!

BTW, the gator nuggets (gator tail bites) at gator-dockside's are awesome!

What about next to Lake Eola. It's not a garage, but there is nice parking area with plenty of spaces. I think it's the 5/3rd bank building on Robinson. It backs up to the lake, but I don't know if there are grilling areas down there. There is an eating area adjacent to the parking lot

I've been to two Cars and Coffee meets in the past 3 months. They meet every 2nd Saturday. It's not a club but just a bunch of people getting together that love cars.

I would suggest buying one yourself. It's easy to do...then you can just rent it out to other people and make some $$$

The Eastwood Roller is like $300!!! But Harbor Freight had one for about $75. I hope they still have it though.

Just found someone local to roll my fenders for a decent price! And seems like everyone who went through him are happy! Cheaper then getting the tool. Tool was around 200-300.00!! Looks like he charges 75.00 for a pair of fenders or 125.00 for all 4.. he even pulls fenders! Awesome!

Here is a link just in case any of you are interested: http://www.orlandoforums.com/forum/s...t=roll+fenders

You should check out the jalapeno poppers at Ale House on Archer... they're truly epic.

Post up next time you're going to be in town! I'm not sure who else actually lives in Gainesville other than invisiblewar (and he's in Miami during summer I think). Where at UF do you work when you come here? I work in Shands.

for the g-viller's, a buddy and I are planning on hitting Gainesville Raceway for the Wednesday night test and tune next month. I'm waiting on my ATLP Base exhaust (hopefully in the mail) and he just wants to light it up in his E55 AMG...nutty 12 second car.

I want to see what a fully modded NA 5AT will do, even though it will be hot as balls. Anyone want to meet or run, maybe second week of June?

I'd be up for a meet, but I'm not going to run my car.

I apologize in advance if I drool all over your friend's AMG.

What up, gg! How bout this rain!? Fricken Week straight. BTW, you know you're old when you catch yourself saying: "Wow, we really needed this rain".

While I got your attention, I think trancemission was a little harsh on jpipe-man in this thread https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-performance-parts-modifications-112/j-pipe-supplier-selection-criteria-723482/

it was funny, not assaulting. I didn't want to say anything in said thread because he threatened to ban us all.

no doubt. what a sleeper. I wasn't aware of what that car was capable of until he told me some of the specs. It's like a 2003 with less than 10K on the clock. He's even talking about getting some slicks for the runs. I will not be in the lane next to him.

I would be so happy to break 14 seconds but, it is an auto and I have 19's... Car feels really strong, even in the heat.

LOL, there is some of that here but the new thing here is a mid 90's Caprice Classic jacked up on some 30's. It is HELLA gay! Send me a pm about the track I may be down for going. How much is it?
