Florida Georgia Get together

[Francesco Rizzo]

How about a lil get-together somewhere between Daytona, Jax, or Orlando? I’m trying to be flexible in this so that perhaps this it might appeal to some of our Georgia neighbors.

Let me know where the Floridians are at and who might be interested.

Myself and Flbeachgal are in daytona trying to set this up.

....but PLEASE lets pick a good when. Work and stuff is always hectic for everyone so im putting in first for sunday.....x

Well, I got real sick and missed this past weekend's rallycross at Joe's place. I also missed the last Daytona meet. Now I have to wait until at least April 9 for my next rallycross fix, and since that's in Homestead I may not be doing it until May 14 when it goes back to Ft. Meade. So I could use a little VX meet or something to keep me sane. :-)

I'm definitely in as long as my hideously packed schedule doesn't interfere! Might even be able to bring both the Dragon and the IronMan. We talkin' a general get-together or maybe some off-road action?

I'm always game - cyndi and mark from the ATL meet were interested in convoying down too. I do have some stuff going on with my mother's health - so it's iffy for me to make a committment - I'll have to play it by ear.

There's the park at Juniper Springs which has a big area with grills, pavillions and such. Joe had the June 2003 VX meet there and much mud was to be had, as -X- and Heraclid can vouch for. There's even an "official" DVD from the meet! Mud not included. LOL!

Here's the photos: 2003 Ocala VX Meet

Blue Springs (Volusia County) might be a good choice too, but there's not much in the way of off-roading. The spring is nice though and open to divers if any in the group were interested. You can make about 110 feet down into the main spring.

Just a couple ideas!

[FLBeachgirl]

juniper springs sounds good to me!

so right now it sounds like march 6th at juniper springs..... now we just need a time.....lets hear from someone who has to drive the farthest for a time idea would'nt want them to have to get up insanely early

It's roughly 2 hours for me, so not too bad. I'm sure the park folks will love to see us come back. One of 'em yelled at me for speeding on the campsite loop. Why? Just because he was driving his golf cart in the middle of the road around a corner and he about crapped himself when he saw me coming. I wasn't speeding and I guess he just had to yell about it. :-)

The mudholes there when we were there were more like waterholes. LOL! I'd advise against it, but it is fun at the time. I'll play in the sand there but won't do that again. The cleanup is a bear (your engine bay will never look the same again). I have traces of Ocala riding with me to this day. And you may lose your alternator and get stuck in an interesting part of town or something. Just a friendly warning. :-)

one hour ride for us in daytona and mapquest puts it at about one and twenty from orlando... I might have to work at 4, so the earlier the better. but am trying to take the day off.. willput in request today and will find someone to cover if I am on.. but I just might have to call in if it comes down to it.. or tell them my truck is dead inthe sand with a burnt alt. I mean, I missed hooters and two rallycrosses.. I definately gonna be there to wiz in the spring.

but put me down as a def..

I think my schedule is clear, but I will check with my handlers.
