I don't think so. But we will see. We need to get a caravan info thread going. It looks like you can roll in on Saturday, but it has to be early.

We will discuss the caravan this Saturday @ the Starbucks Meet. I am planning to use the Alligator Alley, since I will pass by JR's mom on the way to Tampa for brunch. On the GPS, this is also the shortest route plus it'll save me tolls and gas.

Remember to estimate your gas tank to be by 1/8th when you get to Tampa.

I am not sure what route I am taking yet..... I will prob take turnpike to 60.... 60 to 27 and 27 to I-4...... I know that route by heart since I used to live up in Orlando.... I am going to do some research and see what is best, since I will be driving alone.

Ok so this means that I'm going to JR's Mom's house for brunch as well since we're caravaning up there together?

Spoke to an HIN rep yesterday. Even though the shows are outside this year for the most part, they will be enforcing the 1/4 tank rule. So make sure you calculate good or youll be taking laps around St.Pete.

Also, 60 to 27 is def the best route to take.

I can meet you guys @ Yeehaw JCT, and roll to St.Pete. Im not sure so far who will be rolling with me, but Will got his car completely redone, and Hughie might make a last second decision.

Ill be in Tampa for the weekend, so Ill ask the guys from 350ZCOF how they are getting there, and the times for their roll out.

If you have too much gas you can always go to the local drag strip and burn off some fuel while having fun at the same time.
