Two questions:
1) Church St station is closed so where specifically are you meeting?
2) Are the times PM or AM????

Thanks,
Randy

Man you all need more people to turn out at your meets!!! I know FLA is known for some nice rides! I've seen some nice C36, C43, and SLs there too.

Randy is correct about church street. Sure it's fun to go clubbing with your friends but you don't want to take a nice car down there unless you don't care about getting keyed etc. I am putting together an upcoming meet, as a few of you are already aware. I would like to make reservations @ a restaurant in a nice location so we could all meet up, grab a group dinner, etc. That's how it's been done on every forum I have been on...... unless you guys have a better suggestion.... I am open so fire away. If the plan is acceptable, then you guys just have to give me info as to what kind of restaurant you like. Sushi? Steak? Seafood? In addition, people have given me different days etc over pm. What days do you guys prefer?

E320, I will give you a call this weekend to see if you want to chill.

It gets frustrating trying to put together meets and I honestly wish the central florida members were more open for meets/dinners/etc but unfortunately, this isn't like up north. Plus, we don't have tyson corner to chill at . I am from MD bro so I am familiar with everything you are used to up there.

How about Friday evening at 6 or 7Pm at Dr.Phillips Blvd., and Sand Lake Road at the market place. They have a car show there every Friday evening pending weather. The restaurants are good, and the place is safe. No clubs or bars other than the restaurants, but at least the place will be safe. This is right off Sand Lake Road and Interstate Four. About 45 min from Tampa and 45 min from Daytona Beach. What do you think????
