Rain or shine...we have 60 pre-registered between the NCCC and Open Show. If the rain starts coming down seek shelter
a) in the showroom
b) in front of the glass building under the roof
c) building #2 (you know the area where S&D dent used to be for Reunions).

Hopefully, it won't rain much if at all....

About how many of you? NCCC display or Open show?

Yes, Dixie Crossroads is always a good choice to hit.
And, yes, Corky Bells has reopened. Not only has it reopened, but it is a lot LARGER than it former habitat. So that means you should expect a shorter wait time (if any) to get in and get them fried pickles!

Okay...I don't have them pre-registered on the NCCC side-they may be pre-registered for the OPEN show.
Yes, let's keep our fingers crossed on the weather. It was supposed ot rain last Sunday...and it may have been raining someplace...I think it was 8:30 pm when I got a few sprinkles washing one of the vettes!

I'm planing on going but I don't want to enter the show, I'm sure the car will be covered with bugs after a 3 hour drive. Can anyone recommend a good spot to park?

Are referring to the Eckler's Reunion on March 31st at Old Town?
or the
TCC show at Eckler's this Saturday (the show this thread started about)?
The TCC Show at Eckler's will of course have parking available on the pavement.

Hmm...let's see if the rain gets Mark on his way over...it will wash off his bugs and there will be empty clouds at the show

You shouldn't have too much trouble with bugs. Love bugs aren't out. Temperature should be a little lower Saturday. I'm driving the stretch from the East coast to Orlando everyday morning and evening(5pm) and there haven't been any bugs.

I am heading up to Daytona Beach that day. Its the start of Bike Week there and I am taking a few days off for my birthday. After a day or two in Daytona, I will drive over to St. Pete for a few days. If I leave early enough on Saturday, I may stop by the show at Ecklers.
