Congrats, A bunch of cars from the villages was in the FL contingent that met up with us in this photo from Lake Allatoona in GA during the Caravan. Was any of your friends cars in this photo. I talked to several folks from the Villages. It made the top of page 6 of America's Sports Car magazine. The T/R in front is mine.
