Blades,

Good news for you :) The Orlando folks will be leaving tomorrow at 1400 and NOT 0900. Please call me if you have a chance as well.

GREAT!!! Thanks Al, this will help me out alot.......now I can put the caffein pills away :biggrin:

Just enuff time sleep good, get up, wipe down the old girl, and cruise on up to Orrrrlando!!!

See you guys tomorrow :cool:
 
Gang...I have been home sick since Thursday and will not be able to make it. It stinks because I have been looking forward to this for a long time now. :frown:
 
We made it back safely. Definitely a very memorable weekend. :D

It was good to see all the NSX people who made it out.

Here's a pic or two.

Catching a breath at the Overlook..

A problem with a fuel line delays the departure of someone, unfortunately..

Relaxing before the first Dragon run. You NSX guys and lady (Hi Deborah!) are the coolest car people I've met in a while.

Dinner runs can be very interesting and we're not talking about highway shenanigans.

While the cars were great - it really is the camaraderie, the meeting of new people and learning of new customs - the shared group experience that separates the good car meets from the great car meets.

Sorry to hear that, Meeyatch. I'm actually playing around with the idea (one of my flights of fancy) of joining the s2ki folks in their April WTD event but I'd rather not drive the S2000 and I've read about the event organizer's feelings about non-S cars at the meet. :rolleyes:

We'll see.

Yeah, they almost shot me one year when I drove the NSX. My S2000 was in the shop getting some warranty work done on the suspension, I had already paid my entry fee, so I brought the NSX as a replacement. I never thought there would be so many people upset about an NSX at an S2000 event. To me they are all 'brothers' since they come out of the same factory. Oh well... :rolleyes:
 
:biggrin: I know you got some nice shots to show :biggrin:

Deb, are you gonna get the shots that Ky took??

I think I'm actually missing Tennessee. Now that I'm back in Miami, no one gives the NSX a second glance...LOL :biggrin:

But that drive is awful long
 
Just want to say that I had a great time. Great bunch of people. I'll be there next time you guys want to come back. Here is a sampling of the pictures. I have a crapload more. Is there a central thread for the Subies? I have a bunch for them as well. I've posted the small ones but there are the full size ones in my gallery.
