Is anyone up for this? I see a great deal of interest, but no definite date, place and time.

I propose the Seminole Town Center Parking lot, off I-4 and SR 46. Huge place, right off the interstate, and plenty of restaurants and bars close by.

The weekend of the 23rd is best for me. And it looks like the evening is popular with most folks.

Around 8 pm, in the lot near the mall?

hello everyone

i'm sorry i haven't followed up for awhile on this.

the mercedes benz club of america/ tampa section has an autocross at the zephyrhills airport the 23rd and 24th

we can either do something new the airport, and catch a lot of other people as well as have more to check out for ourselves or still do something closer to orlando.

let's get some input

johninfla- imo an evening gathering would limit us more on time and also being able to see everyones car would be a lot harder at night.

should we STILL do this?

thanks
peter

Let's Do it!

Let's set it up everyone. Howabout some of the original suggestions like a great place would be a huge open lot where an old Builders Square II was next to Wal Mart on HWY 50 (E. Colonial Dr.). It is easy to find (right off the main road connecting with I4) and would get much attention as weel as great space. A sunday would be best for me. Keep me in touch at CypressKB@hotmail.com.

I mentioned the Waterford Plaza earlier, however that is only on the fist sat of every month I will be there in March. Ok I can go on Sunday the 24 but NOT saturday If every one is willing to go on sunday I will set it up. I think the old Builders Square parking lot on 50 is good, I checked it out a few weeks ago big and open. So lets do it on Sunday Febuary 24 at the old Builders Square parking lot on 50.
How does that sound.

Unhappy not able to make it

Well, I will be working and not able to attend your gathering.. sure would love to be able to meet y'all, but that's the way the cookie crumbles. I hope you have lots of good people there! Maybe next time.
