manny34711

this is going to be one badass event! I jsut hope the rain stays up. I'll be the dude carrying the hanheld/battery powered pocketfan. I tend to sweat CRAZY STYLE when its like 90+ outside. Yeah ill be sweating ***** that day!

CantGoStraight

I'm guessing by now everyone is following the development of the tropical storm off the coast. They have the track running right through south Fla (which will of course mean rain to say the least) being pulled in starting Sat. morning if not Fri. night..........and lasting all day as it tracks across the state. Can you believe there even talking possible strength to hurricane level ! ! ! ! Guess we should have planned this one in the panhandle ! ! ! ! My plans won't change till the last minute, but keeping my fingers crossed here. Jack

racerxrx7

I have a prior commitment outside of Orlando that I have to go. I don't want to miss this. I've taked to FDrey and hopefully everybody can make it there around 11:30am. I have to leave by 2:00pm. Hope to see everybody there.

i've been following this event for quite some time and from the looks of things........this storm is going to dump alot of water on south florida.....don't know what it will do in Orlando but i hope it somehow gets diverted so that the event can continue.

good luck!!!!!!

FD Rey

I have been keeping track of that storm. I pray it doesn't come this way, and it stays South, way South!

every time I check that projected path, they change it going a little bit more South. Hopefully by tomorrow they have it barely touching the tip of southern Florida.

nexpo8

dammm i cant wait!!! its gonna be a big *** event. imma be taking pix of all the rx7's. so yall better have them clean as hell!!! and i hope it dosent rain hope to see everyone there!!!!!!!!!!!

KYLiquid

So looking at the most recent (5pm 8/24) update...it looks like the center is south of Miami. We will have to wait till at least tommorow (thurs) to look at the weekend forcast models as anything over 72hrs is pretty much useless. When it get down to 48 and 24 it will be more accurate. Right now however its a 60% rain chance durring the day on sat. I think that would be from rain bands on the outter edge of the storm. There will no doubt be some rain on sat, but I think it will be from late afternoon showers or early morning shows.

I hope it stays dry for us though. A little could cover and a nice breez would be excelent but please NO RAIN!

As far as the list....who here is going rain or shine? I am!

FD Rey

I'm pretty sure most of us are heading to the meet rain or shine. I'm being optimistic here, but I have a feeling it will be a beautiful day on Saturday

Mura

Hopefully, my noticeable vacuum leak will do little to no damage, by saturday. Like I said to Rey, I'm in the process of making up an excuse to get out of work on Saturday, and well, my vacuum leak is one of them. As for staying in a hotel Saturday night, Sunday morning, more than likely that won't happen.

josh greene

Im waiting to see what it does, I live in SW FL Im suposed to be leaving friday night but im not driving 3 hours in tropical rain. hopefully the rain will hold off and im gonna try and get friday off and leave thursday night. so if Im in orlando ill be there rain or shine if I can make it out befor the rain gets here im stuck........
I Prey it doesnt but if it does get lots of rain who would be interested in going to miami on sunday??? there having a tunning day and meet.

but like KYLiquid said its way early to tell as we all know these things can change in a instant!!!

FD Rey

Rain or shine this meet will take place. Worse comes to worse we'll use the convention center's huge parking lots and turn it into a drift event

last i checked, still no advisory for the Orlando area with this storm.. still a 50% chance of rain.. which is.. well normal for everyone in Florida... lets keep our fingers crossed.

pianoprodigy

Not looking good...

FD Rey

shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Mura

Despite....70% which isn't good at all, add me on the list. I'm eager to meet your FD, Rey, and others in person.

CantGoStraight

I'm there rain or shine, hell I've got two new dents in my hood to show off. ! ! ! ! !

CantGoStraight

Time to repost the address for Race Rock so we can get directions again ! ! ! !

rxse7en

Guys, I'm not going to make it. Sitting here wearing a heart monitor now. Been having irregular heartbeats--misfires--and not feeling too good. Ryan will be down to visit next week. If you think your car should be in RXTuner, shoot me a PM so we can get together next week for a shoot!
Have fun!

BTW, been tracking Katrina too and it's gonna be the second hit that sucks. I'm figuring Cat 3 through Tampa when it recurves back in from the Gulf--sorry Jerry! You guys "should" be fine for this weekend though in Orlando.

CantGoStraight

Yep,
The excitement is getting to isn't it ! ! ! ! ? ? ? ? It's the anticipation thing. I know it no consolation to you but I'd rather see you take care of number one than risk any thing by trying to make it. There will be others (I know another Jax meet is in the works) And I agree that we should be far enough North that just the outter rain bands will come through. Besides most of S. Fla. will be evacuating to Orlando any way ! ! ! ! LOL. B take care and we'll see you soon. PS. my car should be in Rx Tuner you know WIP ! ! ! !
