I might be able to pick you up from the airport that day, I'll let you know.

Don't know what your plans are while you're down here but Saturday 9/24 a few of us are going out to Orlando for a Cars & Cafe event, the RX-8 is the featured car this month there should be about 20 8's there.

Then back in the Tampa Area that night there's a Dyno Day which we may be going to, me and RWD need to get some baseline numbers before our builds .

For others the Dyno event is at Pete Stop Motor Co in Pinellas Park and is only $10 for 2 pulls, the shop uses a DynoJet dyno so numbers should be accurate.

i will only be in Tampa on friday night. we're watching the Rays game that night and heading to Gainesville Saturday morning.

It looks like my hotel has an airport shuttle, but check in is not until 3pm. i will have to call during the day and see if i can check in early.

Me and Chris are definitely going, I'm pretty sure Glenn is going, but he might be going out there Friday night I have to check with him and I also have to talk to Jose to see if he's coming out there.

Where is there a convenient place to meet up near there?

Actually, I have decided to get a place in orlando about 10 miles from the meet, It's $56 with tax for the room. So if anyone wants to go up Friday night and crash there rather than drive on Sat morning that is cool with me.

I might know someone who is interested in a project car. How is the rest of the car beside the motor?
