I'm in for 11:00 AM. Time to start detailing. Darn afternoon showers and wet roads dirty up the ride, so will have to wait until the morning of to do the exterior. Downtown St.Pete sounds good as a starting place - can't think of a Tampa equivalent that looks as nice as that area. Looking forward to Saturday!!!

11am it is! We need an address so all of us driving from out of town know where to go. I'll be washing my car in the morning before driving up.

I got a set of Tein SA's w/ the recommended settings. Haven't really played around with the damper settings, but you are more than welcome to ride. Maybe you can also tell me if it was worth the extra $$

That works for me as well, if I can make it. What time are you thinking? We should probably plan meet @ 8:30 and leave Chili's by 9:00.

MAS

iTrader: (3)

Sounds right.

weezy_nation

Alright as pennstater suggested we can meet up at the dali museum and go from there. Heres the address.
One Dali Blvd St. Petersburg, FL USA 33701
If anyone has any other suggestions feel free but for now this is it

UA6~RBP

Dali Museum sounds good! I was looking on Google Maps and found a decent amount of parking spots on the water that could be a great photo spot (assuming it's not crowded of course). It is located on "Dan Wheldon Way" near "Albert Whitted Park".

Here is a visual:

Crap, I have a 11:45am appointment to take my dog to the vet on Saturday. I'll probably be able to meet at 12:30 since I live in downtown St. Pete. Hopefully you guys will still be around.

Buck007

Champions Gate Chili's parking lot 8:30 sounds good to me see ya there

JohnieG87

I'm a still come out but i'll only be out for an hour or two unfortunately. Someone from Orlando crew MSG me! I'm off i4 and 27 so if anything if like l just jump into the caravan as you guys pass the exit lol. Guess I need to finish polish the lip on my last wheel! Rear faces will be jacked though till I get em resprayed.

rawkuss23

JohnieG87

Any of you guys from the Orlando crew going to the Miami one on the 30th?

OLD_HATCH

MAS

iTrader: (3)

^^SHould be.


So no crazy late night partying the night before people.

Buck007

that stinks i gtg to sleep early lol should be there by 9 and there is a miami one ot the 30th ???

JohnieG87

Its a couple threads under this one. Its more of a small get together from what Im reading. But either way, there are a couple cars getting together that day out there. No specifics just yet. Im tuned in to see what the final word is.

Slpr04UA6

Alright guys! It's only a little more than a day before, and we have no time, definite place yet? I think 12pm is prob good for everyone, in that people coming from out of town can leave at a decent time.....

Can't wait to see/maybe ride in Mas's Supercharged TL!

MAS

iTrader: (3)

It's 11am at the Dali Museum (address on page 2).

Orlando crew is gonna meet at 8:30 and leave at 9 which puts us there at 11 easy.

Ps.....this is the first trip out of town trip since the S/C install so I'm a little nervous, especially since I'm still tweaking a couple things.

PsPs.....if people looking to sell or buy any mods, it wouldn't hurt to bring them......good opportunity to avoid shipping costs

JohnieG87

Im hype as heck for Sat. First time out with a real crew of cars. Haven't been out of town since my Team Integra days,5yrs exact. Definitely going to be an exciting time. How many cars are expected out?

Guys just a heads up there will be meterd parking at the first stop wich is the dali so bring quarters as it is the only thing accepted at that location unless we don't plan to stay to long I don't think the meter maid will bother us

Unfortunately it's looking like I won't be able to make this meet. I've been working late every night this week and I'm expecting the same tonight. I've got too much crap to catch up on this weekend to be gone for most of Saturday.

Hopefully I'll make the next one! Sorry rawkuss, looks like you'll be the only 4G.

Sorry to add one to the cancel list fellas. Driving from Ocala for a late morning Tampa meet looked great until a couple of days ago. Hoping the schedule would clear but it has not. Should be a hell of a meet though.

Just an idea to keep the momentum going but it seems like there's some willingness to go back and forth on I-4... maybe the Tampa and Orlando crews could alternate host cities for central Florida meets? Either way I'm looking forward to attending in the near future and meeting some of you in person. Have fun everyone.

wow, not looking good. Hopefully by tonight more people get on the list.

I would love to hang out but I'm not sure I'll take that drive for just 1-2 cars. I'll keep checking in through the evening.
