for the state gathering at garlits museum, there are a couple of spots to meet at for the cruise there. in orlando, they will be meeting at the pottery barn shopping center in ocoee at colonial dr and maguire rd at 8:30am. there's a mcdonalds in the parking lot. the turnpike entrance is right there.



also, a group of corvettes are meeting at the turnpike plaza at 8:30am as well.



there is a rally point at the exit for don garlits at 484 and I-75. it's the pilot truck stop for the 10:00am entrance.



remember to plan your time to be at the exit for don garlits by 9:50am. i'll be video taping the 10:00am entrance of everyone.



here's a direction page with pics of the exit and how to enter the don garlits museum.

here's how to enter and park on the premises.

Mines no show car, but I'm going to get it out of the garage for a change and drive it up there. I'm coming out of Lake county so it's back roads for me.

doesn't matter. if you want in on the door prizes, you have to 'show' the car.

If that's the case, I'm in. Hell, it might even be the finest example of a clapped out LT1 in attendance. I just finished swapping out the drag lites for the salad shooters because I couldn't find any radials for the front. The drag wheels were the best looking part on the car...LOL.

My main reason for going is to try and get in on the guided tour. I've been a fan of Big Daddy since I was a kid.
