Hey Brit, Tom we can make it down there, would be great. We have place to stay. Keep posting let's make this big.

 

Britt,
I will have no problem running with this as this is my yard....FyI, Buddy leaves on Saturday so..........

 

hey Rob,
According to buddys original post he will be in the area from the 5th through the 8th of Feb (Sunday). But his schedule while in town is the unknown.

If possible, I too would much rather meet up earlier than later... expecialy if we are able to get a bunch of cars together. Needs to be long enough of a visit to justify the 6 hour round trip.

 

I agree with Max. Budman needs to addabit more information so we canfigure this all out. It's a haul form Jax and Miami so Saturday would be better for me.

 

Wow so far it sounds like it'll be incredible, I hope you guys shoot some video of the day.

 

Ok, your right. I miscalculated the dates. I just called Eric with regards to his original area of preference which would work great! Restaurant Row off Sand Lake rd. Extremely nice local along with numeruos parking( meet space) and food and spirits.
Lets just proceed forward with Saturday as the date then...I'll talk w/ Capitalist and we'll get things cooking. No Doubt we can turn this easily into an "Event"

 

Sweet. I will see what I can do about some video support. Use this post to keep everyone up-to-date and I will see if I can drum up any additional cars.

 

Working on plans right now!!!!!!!

Some of you JAX guy's let's ride down to Orlando together.

Eric

 

Sounds good to me.

 

Gentlemen,

Please lets try and set up the dates and times, so I can work my schedule. It is an 8 hour round trip for me. I would like to be able to at least spend the night.

 

I'll tackle a lot of the work here this week....Out of town people should think on Hotels of preference. I will say that while Buddy will be in Kissimmee (Disney area) you'll want to avoid "that" area like the plague! There's the new Ritz that is very close by that does quite a bit with area car shows etc... Of course there are other more affordable ones, just think folks should gather at the same location.
Will be recruiting some locals (Ferraris, Porsche,etc) also...

 

Rob,

Maybe there is a resort in the area that would be nice. We could do everything all in one place. I will check some sources and see if I can find anything.

 

Britt,
The New Resort is The "Ritz and The Marriott at Grande Lakes"..
Huge property with the two connected hotels. They have done a lot since opening with The Concourse D Elagance etc... You would think they would be receptive.. I would be willing to throw some $$ in that direction as far as set up etc.. Eric has stayed there and I've been through the show...Nice!

 

Awesome. Check it out and see what you can find out.
