If we hit Orlando, one of my good friends owns Dancers Royale (strip club), we could make that a stop off. He's a car enthusiast as well, not sure what he's running right now, but he's had an F car, Lambo, several MB's & probably still has his crazy *** Supra.

As far as strip clubs go, Mons is definitely on top. Dancers is a cool place to hang out with good quality girls.

Mons is a staple of Tampa nightlife...2001 Odyssey across the street is OK (just don't where white pants)...!

I'm in for any track days setup...give me a month and the car should be setup (that is until the VRP twin turbo is available).

I just got home today from a few days in Orlando. I got pulled on I-4 by an unmarked patrol in a black F150 4x4. One officer came to the door while the other stood behind the car with his sidearm drawn. I know you guys probably never get pulled over, but is this normal for a routine traffic stop???

It was near the Turnpike exit (mile marker 76-78 I think). The speed limit changes several times I think between 55 and 65. I had my wife, MIL, and 3 kids in the car and we were running late to my brother-in-law's house and I just wasn't paying close attention. 76 in a 55, but he only wrote me up for 9 over. There were cops EVERYWHERE in that vicinity and I get punked by the 4x4. For what it's worth, I think that's cheating.

I'll be in a non-radar S430 (Ive got a K40 in the 55)...I don't think my car will be back from MB of Tampa by the time I'm ready to leave. We are leaving @ 2pm so I'll be keeping it at the speed limit.

Hey any luck in getting a track rental? It would be nice to have a night when the temps are in the low 50's like last week.

I was going to the track tonight in Bradenton but the snafu with my fuel pump last week and this fuel relay his week has sidelined my sled until next week.
