Florida to Deals Gap caravan.

Alright guys,
I'd like to go ahead and get a plan together to see if we can group together on the way up.

I know Alan (PianoProdigy) is going, and theres a bunch of Orlando guys that should go.

If the central florida people want to meet up in Winter Haven/Clearmont we can all hop on the turnpike. That seems to be the easiest because it'll group the Tampa area with the Orlando/Daytona. Its a pretty straight shot from there.



Anyone else wanting to meet up with us could just be at an exit gas station at a certain time.

We could be able to win the prize for biggest caravan there.

Did you get your car back Ben? Dude, if I take the time off of work, and book a hotel room, there better be a TON of RX-7s up there, or I will be very very upset. Let's get a head count for people who will be going for sure from CFL. I'd love to go, but that's not short trip to Jax and back, and that's like $100 worth of gas for me.

Wow that looks like a fun road. Have fun guys and gals. I found a fun road by my new house in Oakland. Its cr455 I think. Very twisty with nice elevation changes. It goes from the West Orange Trail into Lake county somewhere.

As Ben said, I'm planning on going. It would be neat to get a whole group of us together. I have a Valentine One, so high-speed interstate cruising will be fairly safe.

Hey Guys. Once you guys decide on the Caravan let me know. I know few GA (ATL area) and AL are interested in going. Maybe we could meet up in ATL or Chattanooga an get a huge caravan. What do you guys think?? I think Chattanooga, TN will be a good location. I know few TN guys are interested in this also.

I'm definitely going. I'll be coming from Pensacola (far west Florida) on I10. Where are you guys going to meet up in before you cross over into GA?

Im in atlanta and making the trip, so I will keep checking back here. When it gets closer to the dates, I would like to caravan it. Would look pretty cool to have a line of RX cars flying down the road. If you dont mind an 8 coming along that is.

Wondering if you guys wouldn't mind coming up to Chattanooga, TN for dinner on friday(april 8th) and than caravaning to Fontanna.

Going thru Chattanooga will add about an hour to your trip (from ATL to Fontanna).

I'll probably be coming from jax in my GTUs, where are all the FL guys planing to meet? Somewhere around where I10 hits I75 would probably be a good place for the north FL folks to meet up with the central floridians.


P.S. Bump. Don't let this thread die.

Yeah, we need to make a decision on where to meet up. Anyone familiar with I10-I75 that can suggest a meeting spot at?

First I'd like to know how many people are meeting up from central florida, so we can find a meeting ground and figure a route to where the next group will be waiting to join us.

Will anyone further south be making the journey? If so, central Florida should probabily meet somewhere by I-95.
