Default The Place To Be On A Saturday Night

https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/l...q-hangout.html

A bunch of people got there before 6PM. Some were shooting hoops.
Too many cars with hoods closed. IMHO.
A closed hood is just another parked car, but open hoods....that's a meet!
I opened my hood....and the crowd formed.......23 year old car and a lot of people
find it interesting.....especially the Ram-Air conditioning and cold air box for the carb..... LOL

The grill was fired up when I arrived and food was ready. That was good planning.
.....unlike some meets where it takes an hour for charcoal to gray out and to get
hot.

I saw that just4show bought a lot of hot dogs, so I did my part by eating four
of them. Coolers with water and drinks.......pouring water in with the ice makes ice
last longer and gets so cold, a person can't keep their hands in there.

People arriving by twos and threes....Open hoods from the guys from Hybridracing.com
showing off their engine swaps.......another car with engine swap using some rather
hefty aluminum motor mounts that were not Hasbro for a change.

Bright red Nissan with Mickey Thompson tires on the back......green Mustang with drag race
tires/rims front and rear....saw him at the Seffner/Brandon meets......people hanging
out bs-ing in the bed of a pickup truck. Next time, how about we fill that truck bed with water
and we all bring our swim suits?

Cars were trickling in, in twos and threes. Some declined a front row spot and parked
way down on the end. There was a church meeting in the same shopping center and
our music was good, but respectful of them.

Good space to work on cars with some shelves displaying various items. The office had good air conditioning. Family-friendly atmosphere and well-mannered little kids riding their Big Wheel
trikes and staying out of the driveway/roadway.

As I was leaving, when I stopped for the light at Highway 60, three more cars were
turning South on 301 heading that way.
Just4show has found a way to get a lot of cars out on a Saturday night.
He also does a Wednesday night meet in Brandon....check TR local events for details.
I had 4 other meets on my schedule, but it had rained earlier in the day.
That pretty much cut it down....
Someone was taking pictures and I hope to see some in this thread.....

I had a good time folks. Thanks for the hot dogs and the tour.-Bob

Here is the original posting from the thread....jst4shw autowerkz address at bottom.
You might also stop by the Thursday night meet in Seffner/Brandon....on highway 60.......
here's the link: https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/l...p-spot-21.html
check local events for details....some of the folks at just4show might also be there.

It's my understanding that there will be a monthly meet at jst4shw autowerkz.
Next one is 15 September, if someone wants to confirm that. I sure had a good time at the first one.
This could turn out to be a good thing for Hillsborough County.... a little like the Lowes meet was back in the day.
