That is in Orlando, the Eastern part. I don't remember if Clearwater is east of orlando or west. If it's west, you'd have to pass my area first. If that's the case we can go from my house together if you'd like.

Here's some pics from yesterday's meet. We need more MBWorld representation. You guys really need to get out of the house more often.

I am "out of the house", that's why i couldn't make it to the cf exotics meet. I'd like to check it out. I was just a bit apprehensive at first about my car not exactly being up to par but i know it's not about that now. I'll definately try to make it to the next meet in june.

I'll try to make it.....maybe bring out the 92 500E. What time is this gig getting underway???


Has anyone contacted the manager, or property manager and asked if a reserved section can be set up for MB parking only?? What other sponsors do you guys have lined up?

We are planning to do a first meet first then contact a few places. I will call Winghouse this week and ask them if we can setup something though.

Pete is is not really in winterpark...its right of university so just jump on 408 and get off university!

Or?? How about winghouse on Kirkman, honestly im closer to the kirkman one also. I'm out in Ocoee.

Market000- this first meet is most likely not going to be that big. Maybe we'll just see how this one goes first before we line up anything big.

Ok, so far its the Winghouse on 436 (227 S Semoran Blvd Winter Park, FL 32792) since i've seen it posted on other forums and i don't want to confuse people. 1:00p.m. people! I'll just have to deal with those damn love bugs on the 408.

Has anyone contacted winghouse/hooters? I can do it. I have some friends in the hooters corp. that might be able to hook up a small discount or something. I have nothing for winghouse but I can call from my travel company and see I can pull something. Ive never contacted either of the restaurants so I don't know how willing they are to accommodate us.

Just let me know if it isn't done. How many cars, and how many people. June 4th I can call with a "close to final" number.

Well i hope we can get more pple. Either place is fine. I just don't want to be changing it up too much. Whatever works is fine. I just feel like eating some wings.

Do you guys think that we'd get more people if we started a new thread with the place and time in the subject line?

Ya as soon as we finalize a place. Phillip is way west of us and if we do it at the winghouse or hooters on kirkman, it would save him a few miles. Tomorrow is my day off and i could look for a decent spot for a shoot. What kind of places did you have in mind by ucf? How do they look?

Please do this thing at Wing House. I banned Hooters for life a long time ago.
How many people could potentially show up for this meet if it was announced on other forums?

I was browsing some of the other forums and it's been posted on there. It would be nice to have a large turnout but you know how it is. Maybe after this meet we could all ride out to the cfexotic meet this month. Winghoue is fine with me but i was going to try to talk to the owner of this place that was a Froggers and is now called Frank's place because we know the owner. It's in Ocoee. There is also an empty parking lot across the street for it that we could use for a little shoot.

Phillip- i wasn't planning on bringing a girl but your gf is certainly welcome.
