Tampa/Brandon GTG March 05'

I am having my manager plan for 50 cars and 50+ people. Not to mention the normal Sat. traffic, will be some fun! Sat the 12th I handed out some fliers to Mazda folks that didnt know that there was even a meet on the 19th! Should be pretty good for 2 weeks notice. Based off the success of a 2 week notice GtG I think that we maybe will do a 2-3 month notice GtG when the used car lot is empty for an offsite sale! Would be tight to see 300 Mazdas in here all lined up! May have to call the local news so we can get some overhead shots from a helicopter (flash)

Dang that is too bad, it is looking like there is going to be a good turn out.
 
i wouldnt mind coming to the meet.. but i dont know that area very well can someone tell me how to get there from I-75? i live in ocala
 
According to MapPoint,

Take I-75 south.
At exit 257, turn RIGHT onto Ramp SR-60 / Brandon
Take Ramp (RIGHT) onto SR-60 [Adamo Dr E] 1.1 miles
Turn LEFT (South) onto S Ware Blvd, then immediately turn LEFT (East) onto SR-60 [Adamo Dr E]
Arrive 9751 Adamo Dr E, Tampa, FL 33619

It is Midnight, and just got back from the Tampa Meet. It was great to meet a lot of new people, and with 18 cars, a great turnout. Great thanks to the folks at Ferman Mazda! Huge place, and hope to fill it up in upcoming meets.

Took 3 and a half hours to get home. We got stuck north of Ocala with I-75 Northbound stopped completely for almost an hour. A big-rig rolled over and landed on 2 cars, killing 2 people. Life-flight and everything. By the time they opened the freeway, it was all cleared up. The backup was as far as we could see. We were about a mile away from the accident, too late to getoff the freeway and take alternate routes.
