[tkrskyline]

I sold the skyline. Ryan owns it now but please dont post where he lives. attracts unwanted attention

[Generation Import]

I just had this skyline on my garage for a week while we were doing a feature on it.

Tom

[Stratustyle]

Ya I will be going to that show. I will be in the Stoner Car Care Product Booth. See yall there..

[Suspect]

Im most definitely goin.............good thing this thread was made early so we can get a pretty good roll call on this......

[midorigreen]

most likely will be there

[Generation Import]

I love that avitar midorigreen! ha ha.

So roll call so far on who is planning on attending.

Say yes, dont know yet, or no

Tom

[95InTeGrAgRl]

im goin most likely and i kinda sorta know the guy that had the skyline i went down to the shop and seen him with my exbf a few months ago it was nice and i seen the car that zfever puts in there shows and stuff>>>awesome>> anyways ill make arrangements to come down to miami

[Generation Import]

Where are you from 95InTeGrAgRl? That skyline that I posted is up in GA.

Tom

[95InTeGrAgRl]

well im in tampa but what i gathered was the skyline that was down here at a garage where zfever is somwhere here in the tampa area. i guess were talkin diff skylines LOL

[Generation Import]

Yea this R33 is not the Z Fever one.

[nesser3]

Hey guys im ryan on my gf's account. I am in the fletcher area and Mitch was talking about me. We live in the same complex. I am going to HIN with the car as charles has previously stated. See you guys there. Maybe we can get a tampa caravan?

[Generation Import]

That would be cool. I could start it out in Daytona and head that way.

(We will be bringing down our EVO, Supra, and wide body WRX... we are going to be meeting up with the R33 GTR that was in the feature on our site. They are comming down from GA.)

Tom

[nesser3]

Well if it would be ok with you all I would like to join in with the R33 and the supra hopefully. Has that other GTR had his twin upgrade done yet?? Im very interested to see one of those in person. You could say its on my to do list also.
What day and time is everyone meeting?

[Generation Import]

He said it was in the works last I spoke with him. He also said a wide body kit was also on order. I am anxious to see it in person. Hopefully he will have it all on by HIN Miami.

As for meeting up, I am all for it, but I have not honestly put a plan together yet. Let me see what I can do. Maybe we can do an official tour to Miami through our site. (kind of a mini NOPI tour)

I will keep you posted.

Tom

[Matt Vassallo]

I will probably be there.

[Suspect]

I would like to join in this caravan as well if it was str8 with you guys.........the more the merrier I guess

[tkrskyline]

Last year when I still owned the car, we did have it in the nissan booth. Worked out real well since we were short a spot for our 240z

[Generation Import]

Hey everyone. I just spoke to my contact (and close friend) at Vision Entertainment (HIN) and he was all about the idea of us having a caravan down that way. We both agreed that it would be a cool way for all the participants and showgoers to get to interact on a different level.

I am going to try to put this thing together.

IF YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING PLEASE SAY SO SO I CAN PLAN THE ROUTE FOR THE CARAVAN.

Tom

[terry.ho]

My girl and I are going. And Nick your not allowed to caravan because everyone wants to make it there not half way there when your car breaks.:D JFWY Nick. How's the beast running?

[nesser3]

Count me in for the GTR and MKIV if all hoes as planned they should both make it.

[is300matt]

[Generation Import]

That is actually what I had in mind... where are all of you comming from? I want to plan the route.

Tom

[is300matt]

[JonLGT]

I want to go to the show but not many friends of mine want to ride to miami with me... besides i dont feel so cool with my WRX anymore when everyone else is rollin with a R33 and such.

[Generation Import]

Hey No big deal man...Everyone is welcome to roll down with us (even if they arent showing) It is just a cool way to get together with a cool group of enthusiests.

Tom

[Honda_StreetRacing04]

hey if anyone wants some flyers for hin can ask me about it i got them in yesterday .

[Generation Import]

hey honda, don't hijack my thread! I have already offered my ticket discount code and posted the flyer.

You are not doing the show any good by promoting in a place that has already been promoted in. I have already contacted vision about your hi-jacking. I highly suggest you find a new place to promote that has not already been done if you want your flyer code to work!

[Generation Import]

[fathead]

[16ggst]

p.s. are you guys just going for that night and coming back or you staying thru the night?

[Suspect]

Im stayin thru the night.........

[koopa]

i'm staying over night.

[Suspect]

so how early should it be before we all meet to ride out there at the same time?

[Generation Import]

I am not familliar w/ that area, so if someone that lives down there wants to coordinate the travel route plans and times that would rock. Just say so if you are interested.

Tom

[Suspect]

I think we should meet where 75 and I-4 meet and a good place close by there to meet is the casino on hillborough and off 301

anyone else?

[fathead]

[jdomini00]

a yo, i'm interested in meeting up for the HIN in miami in december. I'm actually also a promoter for the show. What time are we meeting at the casino? whats up with the people staying over night? are you getting hotels somewhere booked in advance or what?

[Rob.M]

Actually, with quite a few members of the DS staff.

[sexZgirl]

Yeah, we're riding down to Miami to cover the event. We should plan a meetup point afterwards, have some drinky drinks.... ahh, Orlando HIN....

[JonLGT]

I woudl really like to go but im not old enough to get a hotel room and id have to find somone to go with me.

[Suspect]

Originally posted by 16ggst

oh john you know I would never pass that up

[Suspect]

so our caravan I guess will begin at the casino correct?

[JonLGT]

someone give me a place and time to meet so i can figure out if im going or not. Im pretty sure i can but id just like to know the details before the last second.

[DA92driver]

im in if yall can decide on a time and place to meet sometime before 3 days before it happens......

[Suspect]

well the casino that saturday like 3-4 hours before the show starts so we can be there somewhut on time

[jdomini00]

well the show starts at 5p. i say we meet at noon b/c you know there are going to be delays...

[JonLGT]

Delays yes. It is starting snowbird season so expect traffic, we may want to leave before 12 but thats just my opinion. Its not up to me.

[jdomini00]

it would be a good goal to LEAVE at 12. if you're not there you might get left, my tolerance for waiting is really short. now watch me be the one you all are waiting for huh huh.

[Suspect]

Im down for leaving at 12..............

[Rob.M]

I say Friday afternoon/evening thusly allowing plenty of time to get there and have fun. Then Saturday we could all meet up down there and have lunch, cruise around a little etc... Personaly, I dont want to drive 4 hours to work all evening.

[Chris LS]

Dr. Evo, his girl, me and my girl are heading down there Friday afternoon.

[DA92driver]

i tested it but didnt purchase tickets yet but it worked for me.i went all the way till it asked for credit card info...so thumbs up from here.-Greg

[nesser3]

Ok, So when is everyone meeting and where? I need to go ahead and make some firm plans. The cars in the show need to be there as early as possible Friday. I think we should meet at the Casino at a little before 12 noon adn leave by noon. Let me know what you guys want to do?

[Rob.M]

Ryan/Everyone,

The Best Western is $70.00 a night via hotels.com. You can access it via this link. (http://www.hotels.com/property.do?mtnHotelID=165164&page=info&numadults=2&numchildren=0&numrooms=1&CIDay=10&CIMonth=12&CIYear=2004&CODay=12&COMonth=12&COYear=2004&z_property=&gds=3&thisPageNumber=1&qKey=WO102184701524&roomTypeCode=002) As far as parking like all of South Beach they dont have any. Parking is handled by the Miami Beach municipal parking 1 block from the hotel. The good side of this being its directly across the street from the South Beach police station which also monitors the parking garage. Some parking is also available in front of the hotel via meters...but who wants that nonsense. We will be heading down Friday, probably some where around noon. WE DO NOT WANT TO GET TO MIAMI ON A FRIDAY AT RUSH HOUR!

Here is the info about the hotel, or hotels I should say as its composed of a series of art deco hotels they have restored.

http://www.hotels.com/hotels/MIA_BWSB-lobby-1.jpg http://www.hotels.com/hotels/MIA_BWSB-exter-2.jpg
The Best Western South Beach is a collection of small, historical, art-deco hotels that were built over a period spanning from the 30's to the 50's. The hotel is only blocks from the beach, and just steps from popular nightclubs, restaurants, bars and trendy shops. The Best Western features a small fitness room, a 24-hour business center with Internet access, and a small, heated pool, which overlooks the sidewalk.
The guest rooms are typically small, as is the norm in this area, but they are equipped with modern comforts. As these rooms are distributed throughout four different buildings, they vary with interior corridor or exterior corridor entrances. There is small courtyard area, and the pool are is one of the few in South Beach that are actually landscaped. Although the neighborhood is decidedly up-tempo, it is quieter than Ocean Drive. The Best Western also sits opposite a police station, which should allay guests' concerns about security in the area. The famous 11th Street Diner, is around the corner and open 24 hours. Inexpensive, enclosed municipal parking is located nearby.

[ssp-lancer]

we are leaving like 10am on friday from tampa....Chris LS when are u guys leaving on fri?

[Rob.M]

We will be leaving some where between 11:30 and 12:00.

[Suspect]

for those of us not in the show............You guys still down for leaving saturday?

[DA92driver]

ok friday people when,where andt what time to meet up.(and who)


for the saterday leaving people:when,where and what time to meet up...??

[nesser3]

Friday people (myself included) we will plan to meet at the Casino on 1-4 and 75 (basically) at 11:30 for a 12 o'clock departure. How else is going? And, is this plan ok with all of the friday people?

[ssp-lancer]

**this is for frisday***sounds good but i have to make a pit stop in apollo beach so what i will do is time it when u guys are leaving...it will take u abuot 20 mins to hit apollo beach and i'll just leave my pit stop at 12:20 or so

do u think we will hit Miami traffic leaving at that time...maybe we should leave at 11am

[2ndGenT3g]

well what is up with the saturday people were and when are we meeting up? or has no one made there descision yet?

[Rob.M]

Friday departure.

Well, I cant get away from my office (Westshore) until 11:30 on Friday so we wont make it to the casino until about 12:00. We'll be ready to embark south at that point.

As far as the concearn of Miami traffic, it is a very valid one. I'm not sure what the best solution there is. Its going to take roughly 4.5 hours to reach South Beach so, that puts us there at 4:30....sorta eh. I suppose the alternative could be to leave later or earlier or stop some where to blow off some time. Tough call.

[ssp-lancer]

i guess we got the night to decide....

[Roberto Fleming]

i need a ride on friday to HIN.

My car is leaving for HIN thursday night or early friday morning to go with Durden and his group. My girl and I both have tests scheduled Friday morning at USF.

Id really appreciate a pickup in the USF area on Friday to go with you guys down. Anyone have a seat or two to spare? Thanks!!

p.s.
call my cell if u can help with the ride:
941-284-8562

thanks!

p.s.
will throw in on gas btw.

[JonLGT]

ok big thanks to whoever was putting this togather that ditched the saturday people. way to go.
