Florida Meet

[CoastieCosta567]

Thats an idea. How about Red Bug lake park in Casselberry Florida?

[gletom]

That sounds great to me!

[mborodi]

Im game.. water access for bath after a drive to get the flipping bugs off is great.. lol.. (although with the amount of wax, they slide right off mine anyway)- it's kind of a catch 22 though.. if anybody really south eastern was intending on going, it's a nice drive up the coast & shoot over to the Orlando Area.. then you've got 10 VX'rs parked on your lawn.. lol..
What about Daytona Beach? Maybe there's a place we can detail & wash, and play in the sand..
Truth be told, I love the attention we get when general population tries to figure out what we are.. I can't even imagine more than 2 next to each other.. There's a function on this side of the berg (in St. Petersburg) that happens once a month, called DuPont Registry "Cars & Coffee".. which is a big parking lot, and all the cool cars come out to be seen.. coffee too of course.. I wonder if there's something like that mid state..

Ok,so finding a location in orlando is not as easy as it sounds.
I'm not to familiar with the area,and the fue places I was able to find are just parking lots >.<
BUT!! I do have one idea.
What about my place? I didn't mention it before because I didn't want to be unfair with drive time.
But I have over half a city block and I can fit over 30 cars. I can supply music,chairs,tables,bathroom,water hose for washing, It's fully shaded by the trees. AND I can supply some food and if you want I can arrange for a food vendor.
It's in historic Downtown Brooksville"you can see the courthouse from my front yard"

It's just a thought and I wouldent mind doing it at all.
Let me know what you guys think.

Drove to Punta Gorda and back yesterday visiting a friend. There is an automotive museum on one of the roads leading to where he was staying, that had a car show yesterday. I don't know how to find these but have seen many in the past. There is one near me in the evenings in Wellington, FL. Happened by it one night dropping my daughter off at the movies. Gave me something to do while waiting on the show to get over. Gonna google car shows in central florida and see what comes up. Anyone interested in crashing one of those with a few VX's ????

The link above is what I found that seems to show several Car Shows. I clicked on several and you can find out more about when, where and even some had a printable window sign you could use to display your vehicle. Some are further away (from me) than I thought they would be, by the town name. Guess I have heard of the towns but didn't actually know where they were. Below is a list of Central Florida shows until the end of March. There are more listed into June but the frequency seems to be less. Check it out.

Registration opens at 8:30am, show ends at 3pm. This is the first day of the Apopka Fair 2 day event. For more info, call Lowell at 407-886-5844.

lol.. Rod.. how about car show on saturday & disney on sunday for your youngest birthday!!

[RodL]

I will ask her what her Mother has planned. The 2nd is clear on my calendar and is the same distance for me. May be further for others. I will keep watching the action here and see what the decision is.

[RodL]

Well, found out the weekend of the 9th is out for me. No other comments, so either no one else is free that weekend or they are not really interested. I am still watching for a firm date and place. My current work schedule runs through the 9th of March. I will have one weekend of on call the following 4 weeks for sure. Don't have the date's yet but they will be coming up soon. I still have March 2nd open.
