Hay Gainesville (FL) Drive and Meet

Anyone up for another drive down to Hooter's in Ocala for a drive and lunch? Maybe Ramy will bring one of his 7's this time instead of blowing up the MR2 on the way down!

Thinking late February? The 27th or 28th maybe?

So, are Gainesville peeps still out there? I would like to make the drive so long as the FD is running. I can go 1000 miles to get the car home, now I'm not so sure I can go 60. LOL. Gotta love this stuff...

I'm always down for a drive. I haven't been exposed to the gville rotary group besides knowing bryan. Not sure if my car will be back from paint by then though...

What you guys need to do is come out on our drives with us on thursday nights....

Kevin I still owe you lunch! I am down to go, as long as you guys dont mind riding next to a 6 colored fd. Last time I talked to Ramy his FD is in Cali for awhile, so only his fb is here in Gainesville.

If Melissa and I are off, which is unlikely, we will be in attendance.

So is Saturday the 28th good for? I know some of the Tampa guys are going to come and I've recently touched base with some 7's in Ocala.

I think Caesar...who is with the ASO finally has his CYM running again after several years so maybe we can get him to come

Evo I will leave it up to you to try and get Tom and Jack to come.

I'm aiming for 12-15 cars to show.

I talked to Tom last week. His significant other isn't doing so great...he'll be out of touch for a while. Jack seemed to drop off...not sure what's up with him.

I hope to make it, what time did we decide on and where are we meeting in Gainesville for the drive down?

LOL..well, its kinda loud but I'm getting used to it. Sounds are muffled at best. Trying to tune the open loop cycle so you don't smell like fuel on cold start. Currently reminds me of when I was running no cats and midpipe.

Maybe for our drive to Ocala?

I appreciate the invite. If you are talking about the INTMO/Ale House group, I know there are some serious guys there but apart from that, not really my scene.

I was thinking about leaving Gainesville at noon on the 28th, lunch, and return. Last time, Hooters gave us 50 free wings for bringing a group down.

50 free wings sounds great!

Where do we meet in Gainesville for our caravan? Ale House?
