Official Everyone North of Ocala to ART on 1/15/10 Convoy

Ok...let's plan the trip out.

Optimally I would like to stop in at the Land O' Lakes car meet and see if there is anything interesting there and then swing over to ART. This is up for discussion.

Trip 1 (Include LoL): Leave Gainesville 8AM. Pick up Ocala 9AM. Meet Tampa area 9:30AM. Land o' Lakes 10AM. ART Noon. Home ???

Trip 2 (No LoL): Leave Gainesville 10AM. Pick up Ocala 11AM. Meet Tampa Noon. ART 1PM.

So...afaik:
1) Gringo Grande
2) Evo
3) Ruler Mark

Looking like a lot of interest from many groups to attend the ART event. Anyone going to be in the car show? Should we focus on that event for parking...?

Hey guys...the AEG meet moved...again...so this is a straight drive to Sarasota now. I have to go to Tampa on business on Thursday it looks like so will be meeting you there.

If you leave Gainesville at 9AM this would put you in Sarasota around Noon I believe. So...proposed new schedule:

9AM: Leave Gainesville:
10AM: Pick up anyone in Ocala
11AM: Meet up with Tampa
12AM: Sarasota/Profit

Ocala: If RX7Speed is coming we can let him decide. Might be best to just call ahead and meet on the road.

Tampa: Let me talk with RB and see what he suggests. Might be best again to call from 10 minutes down the road and just meet up on the Interstate.

Is Tom going to come?

I was going to try and make this but it looks like I will be unable. I will just have to wait and meet most of you in person at the meet in Jax at the end of Feb.

Kevin, that would be awesome if some of you could meet up! I am meeting with my friend who is trying to get some RX-8's together down there. Here is the info I pulled from another forum.

When: Saturday January 15, 2011
Time: 7:00AM - 10:00AM
Location: DuPont Registry

oo7arkman, I was looking forward to seeing your car! We will have a chance to meet at the NE BBQ though, or maybe the CFL rotaries casual meet.

Waiting for Tory to chime in. He's the planner for the Tampa meet up. I hope it warms up for one day so I can wash my damn car.
