I know there is a good sized group of us leaving from tampa, but not sure when/where yet.

hopefully my car will be out of the body shop by then so that i can take it...

I'm cruising up with a group from LS1GTO.com Don't know all the details yet. All I know so far is that we're eating breakfast some where at 730am and then rolling over there.

I'm putting my car in the show just because it's cheaper to do so than buying individual tickets to get into the park. I'm going just to check out the cars.

If its cheaper to put the car in the show I may go that route. jasonk Ill let you guys know if I plan on meeting up with you, it would be great to ride in a group instead of riding solo.

What time do you have to be in by? I guess we can meet up near the gate and cruise in together. Rolling from O-town.

You need to register between 7am and 10am.


Looks like the LS1GTO group is meeting at the Waffle House on SR54 and I75 around 7am.

I just looked on LS1GTO.com and looks like Waffelhouse Breakfast at 630am and we're pushing to get on the road by 730am. Roll on over and we'll all cruise up together. I haven't seen the Fbody Inc. crew in while. Should be some good times this Saturday.

The love bugs are going to be killer.

There are a few of us meeting at the Turkey Lake Plaza on the turnpike at 7:00am if you want to cruise over with us.

Ill definitely be cruising up there with you guys. It would be awesome to locate a car wash in Ocala just in case the luv bugs are bad. If I have to do a spot wash/wipe I guess that will be ok. It would kill me to have people checkin out my bug infested car, I gotta think of something.

I'll be coming from the Valrico/Tampa area. Will probably catch you guys at the Waffle house... anyone want to post up some contact cell phone numbers?

My name is Jarrod (said like Jared) 813-546-8046 is the celly.

If you put a light coat of wax on the front of the car and then don't wipe it off for the drive... it will help with the love bugs. Your front end will just look a little hazy on the drive up. Then you can wipe it off when you get in the park.
