I think I saw you sunday just up from TCC. Was that you? We should all hook up sometime.

When was it? I may have been going or coming from Capital Eurocars. That's about the only time I am on that side of town. We should all get together sometime. I went to Gainesville this past Friday night for street car drag night. There were two imports out of 100 cars- me and an acura. We should all go sometime.

Was about 4pm sunday afternoon..you were heading towards TCC from the street by the new Publix. Name a place and I'm there.

Never been but up for it.

i go to bainbridge and jax to autocross. at bainbridge the place they use is all beat up and full of gravel. you slide a lot, but it is still fun. if you are willing to drive a little farther the place in jax is awsome. it is on a huge air force runway that is pristine. there is not so much a pebble on it.

derek - what did you run at gainesville?

I ran at the world famous Gainesville Raceway, former home of Big Daddy Don Garlit.

i mean what was your ET/trap?

Best was a 14.1 @ 101.4 mph in my SMG cab.

not bad. C&D got 13.7/104 for a cab with the 6 speed, and those guys are do that **** all day every day, so your time is pretty good with the slushbox (even one as badass as the SMG). seems to me (not that i have ever driven one) that the true beauty of the SMG would be the perfect throttle blip downshifts as you dive into a corner, engine screaming, pedestrians diving for cover. hahahahaha (evil laugh)

So you guy's up for meeting and talking. New to the area and looking to make some friends that know the area.

i'm down. when and where?

No idea...I'm new to the area. I just retired from the military and all my family moved here so I moved here as well. Where would be a good place?

I've driven by Schlotzky's before when there was a bunch on cars hanging out. I think it was on a Thursday night. I'll be the old guy in the group so I'm up for whatever you young folks want to do.

you guys ever been out to innovation park? paul dirac dr, beautiful curvy long road with no sides streets. it is the safest spot in town for some aggressive driving. it is my dream to get enough people that we could have someone stationed at each end as lookouts for other cars/law enforcement.

Hmm young guy's..:) I'm 39 Derek. Not sure how old anyone else here is. Where is Schlotzky's? Never heard of Innovation park. We could pick an afternoon/evening and meet at the Longhorn. You guy's could show me Tallahassee.

32 here. Schlotzky's is on Tennessee St. down by Mo's. I've heard of Innovation Park but never been there. What do you guys do?

i'm 30. you guy are old :P

is seminole raceway a 1/4 mile track? speaking of race tracks, i met a guy a couple of weekends ago who is building a spec cart track out in monticello. he is a boxing promoter and is friends with juan-pablo montoya and his father. they designed the track for him. each corner on it modeled after a corner of a different f1 course. it is going to be sick. ****, now i have to buy a cart. he said the track should be done in a couple of months.

Don't know anything more about the raceway but it's got to mean something good. I'd love to not have to drive to Gville anytime we want to race.

I plan the "Downtime" for maintenance at a bottled water plant. As well as all the maintenance for the facility. The new bottled water plant in Madison county that Nestle' built to be exact. I retired from the Navy last august. What is it you guy's do? Rocket.. Derek and I might be old but, your right behind us ;)

"Rocket.. Derek and I might be old but, your right behind us"

lol. i still look really young though. nobody ever believes i am 30. sh*t, i don't believe it. when did i get so old?

my job title is "assistant program manger". i manage a contract with the state to provide language services (interpreters, translations, etc) to DCF and DOH offices to assist in the relocation of international refugees. i am also a doctoral student at fsu in communication research. oh yea, and my name is anthony.

Wow!! Pretty impressive. Age kinda sneaks up on you :) I'm Brian btw.
You guy's up for having a steak and a beer tomorrow?

Would love to except... my wife and I are doing a engagement party for a friend of mine. Another time for sure.

No worries. Un-attached here. Just post or PM a time that works for you and we can go from there.

my schedule is pretty flexible, you guys let me know when.

Cool, look forward to meeting you guy's. Guess it's up to Derek :)

Sure, leave it up to the married guy. How about Schlotzky's on Tennessee St. this Thursday night. The other racers/ricers get there around 9. We could get there sometime before 9 to get how ever many spaces in a row that we would need. Any ideas, input? How many folks do we have?

thursday sounds good to me.

Anyone else up for it?

Sounds good to me as well .

you guys still planning on showing?

Sure, how bout 8:30?

i will be there!
