There's not too many people with them that actually enjoy the cars down here, mostly teen girls with AT's or middle aged women. There's been some talk of setting up a meet sometime in June though.

i was thinking we could all meet in Destin. I would want to leave out of Panama City for a cruise out there around 1ish if it worked for everyone else. Thats just my ideal time frame but flexible. I dont car if people wanna BBQ thats cool...or we could go somewhere and grab something and a beer or whatever people wanna do i just wanna get together and drive my car a bit.

I'll ask for it off, by the way, anyone good with suspension stuff? Mine is feeling a bit funny, but it's hard to describe.

Sweet. I have the tools(I think, I honestly have no clue what is needed for that) but I've just never messed with any suspension stuff and don't have enough of an understanding to know what could be causing it or even to just look over it and even know what to look for.

Ok so June 23rd it is!

Now Any one in Destin have an idea on a meeting place?!?!?!?!

People of panama city, Everyone cool with meeting at the walmart parking lot on the beach around 1? We can roll out at 1:30 and be in destin 2:30-3:00ish depending on meeting location and traffic.

Lets figure out the pesky details so this goes off without a hitch!

I would say the easiest place to meet, as long as it's not super crowded, would be the Boardwalk on Okaloosa Island. It's easy to find and we can chill there if we want, there's a beach, and a few good restaurants close by. Or if we wanted to stay in Destin, there is always the Commons, which has a parking garage if we wanted to do photoshoot stuff.

Up to you guys though, so what all did we want to have go on? That would kind of make the decision for us.

Alright, well the Commons is a bit closer for the Panama City people, I'm not sure if there is more from there or Pensacola.

Anyways, what else do people want on the agenda?

Hey folks been living in Destin for a little over a year and finally made my way back onto the boards. Unfortunately I won't be around for the 23 June meet up but I'm down any other time to meet some locals.
