Default Tired of Fuel ****?

So I've been talking to a lot of people and it seems that everyone agrees that the Fuel **** meet is getting to big fot the corner of Orange and 50. I have already talked to the owner of Mattress Firm on 436 and he gave us full permission to use there parking lot. So....Me and some other people will be meeting there on saturdays at 8:30pm. It is on 436/semoran near the airport. It is between a Carmax and a Cracker Barrel. The parking lot is big,well lit, and not right on the road. Anybody who wants to come out is more then welcome. I just ask that you respet the property so if your planing on doing bunouts and donuts then please stay home. PM me if you need more details.

Cool the more people the better. I'm not expecting to much being this is the first meet but if I could get 10 cars I would be very satisfied.

good luck with the meet and i hope it works out for you, i think the corner is getting so big because it`s a long standing meeting spot(since 2000 i believe)

Might check this out next saturday too. The corner is cool being right in the middle of downtown, but I can definitely see space being an issue.

Fuel **** is a club not just a meet and its been that way for the almost a decade. You might have better luck if you make it on another night. Good Luck either way

So, if I come out on Rt. 50 (West bound) from the dragstrip, when I reach 436, do I turn North or South on 436?

FS has been too big for the corner for a bunch of years, but way out by the airport is way too far for me...

not to mention while yes we "hang out" at the corner the big fact is alot of people come looking for action as well which add`s to the meet if you ask me, people drive from all over central florida and some times further, to not just show they`re ride but test it out against some other rather quik street cars.

Another note some of us have been hanging out @ that corner for 15 years plus. Regardless of the "car club" there will always be some people @ Orange / 50. I will try to stop by the spot of 436 next week.

I heard that you were only 14 years old. How's that add up?

*cough* early 90's *cough*

I'd be in for a different night, but as stated, It's a long haul, and my car won't make it past Orange and 50 on a Saturday unless there's a damn good reason.

Good luck with the meet!
