Well, our friends in Gainesville have finally come to a consortium on the location of the car show. Its going to be located at "Forrest Park"

With, that said it certainly looks to be a fantastic Gathering. We have 40+ Z's alone attending; ranging in model year and designation, there will also be large Supra, 3000GT's, and RX-7 contingencies, as well as a few NSX's, Porsches, BMW's, and other high end imports. Did I mention we have people traveling from as far north as South Carolina and New Orleans....this is not a meet to miss folkZ! Further, Information regarding the meet as well as an updated list of attendees is available at www.ecza-fl.org .
