yah.... we had a tampa meet last year... gbhari (george) and I. haha...... we tried to get something together for too long....... it seems like it's easier if we put something together for orlando where it's centrally located for everyone. Best of luck.... I tried too many times.... you guys can give it a shot if you want.

Damn, it's smooth sailing on I-4 but once we hit the 275/Downtown Tampa it takes 30-40mins to get to the bridge

The problem isn't the bridge... It's everything before the bridge. You are talking about taking the Airport Exit right before the bridge then merge onto I-41 or whatever it is where it runs into the back end of Clearwater, great photo area at Sunset

I'll look into the other boards next week. Do we want this to be a exclusive Mercedes event or do we just want to go big and reach out to the others. There are a big showing of NSXs and Ms in Orlando/Tampa... The last time 6Speed had a CF Meet was almost a year to date.
