Default Florida Get-together

Well guys it been a hell of a year, production delays, constraints and Verts, We won’t even go there…. But now a lot of have our cars and except for a few Problems most of us are happy campers. So what say we get together sometime And compare notes and maybe a few brews. I live in the Orlando area but as long as I can get some gas it doesn’t matter to me where we meet or when, just as long as we can get together, tell some lies etc. Anyone interested? If so where and when? By the way all are invited, a C6 is not required, hell Illinois Vette owners are even welcome….



Ok Guy and Gals we meet for lunch at Hooters Orlando airport
http://www.c5.bz/hosting/Hooters.htm
say 11AM on Sat May 7. Click the link for map, it easy to get to from most anywere.

Hopefully, my ship (vert) will come in in about two weeks. Lets do it in the late spring, after all the snowbirds take off.

You finally did it, congrats. Now we really have to get together once your vette arrives to compare the goodies!

sounds like a great idea! My only problem is i am still waiting for GM to accept my order for a DSOM vert.-SINCE MIDDLE OF FEBRUARY!!! tomorrow i'll stop at the loca dealership again and find out this week's excuse-S.O.$%&##@$%^'s. Anyway, keep me in the loop and when you all get together, i'll be happy to participate-IF I HAVE MY CAR BY THEN! i was hoping for an end of May NCM delivery/pick-up; we'll see. Great Idea-Sal from Tampa Bay area.

Mount Dora works for me, as it is close to where I live, won't have my C-6 until 4/29 so spring time will work....

"I am in"

I have never been to Mount Dora. Sounds like an excellent excuse to exercise the lungs of our our C6!
