Default Any Jacksonville peeps...?

I think we need some action up here in Jacksonville! Just recently got back to my C5 roots, and would love to meet up with some fellow enthusiasts at a local spot. Do some good ole cruzin. Also, im looking for a good tuner around jax. If anyone has any recommendations.

Want to eventually get a nice tune just for intake & exhaust. The basics for now. You know of any meets or events down in St. Aug?

I have Tony G's (from HP Performance) number around here somewhere, when I find it I'll PM it to you.

the Jacksonville Corvette Club has a couple meets a month
www.jaxvette.com

so does North FL Corvette Assoc
www.nfca.net (really good group)

if you go to www.carcouncil.org they have a listing of all the cruise ins each saturday around town.

Don't know anything off hand that happens in St Aug, I'm kind of an "outlaw" to the corvette clubs... I track my car as often as my wallet allows me to and most of the clubs are the "show and shine" crowd (which is cool and I'm onboard with it 100%)

Seems to only be two choices for tuners here in Jax, Tony, as mentioned or Doc @ EFI Alchemy, both have very good reputations.

I'm sorry but I can't seem to find Tony's number, I'm sure if you call HP Performance @ 276-race they'll be able to put you in touch with him.
