Florida VIP/EXE meet location

[Dr_Drift]

I am highly considering setting up a meet in Florida. There are a few dates that I am considering. First we all next to decide on a location so that the majority of people are happy and willing to come. remember Florida is not all that big so don't get discouraged if the location chosen isn't in your immediate area.

The easiest place for me to set it up would be Tallahassee, Ft. Lauderdale, or Orlando. So if we choose outside there I am going to need some help from your local guys on possible venues.

Event Location: Orlando
Event Date: summertime, TBA

[Dr_Drift]

please feel free to comment on local venues you my be interested in

[johnee]

[RaCinStylez]

ORLANDO at that popular dim sum resturant


LOL....the one on Internation Drive called MING COURT??!? ....ahaha....we and my homeboys use to work there :dance:

[jubei07]

I am down for Orlando, wife's sister lives there and it gives us an excuse to go see them. Also I might be down there soon to use our timeshare at Westgate Resort.

[Dr_Drift]

Alright guys try and spread the word we need as many people as we can get, before we choose a final destination. Remember anyone can attend if there willing to make the drive (Florida, Georgia, Alabama..ect)

[vt4lifecuf]

orlando sound good

[emogs300]

I prefer orlando just because i live here.

[jqnguyen8]

So, how's the planning for this one going? I don't want it to end up going nowhere.

I have tried to spread the word out and I have talked to some people and they said they will definitely be there, just need a date. Is it still sometime in Dec.

[cielo_man]

+1 for ORlando!

Anytime after September would be good coz my new rims should be arrived by then hehe..

[Dr_Drift]

I am currently supee busy but I have not given up on the event. As of now the event is going to held in Orlando. I am currently looking into places to hold the event. If any of you local guys no of a spot please let me know

[burgy]

Orlando FTW! You should hook up with the Deepvision.net pepz and try to have them help promote it. I know they do lots of O town parties and car related ish. Hopefully I'll be VIP by the time this gets off the ground

[jqnguyen8]

The thing about deepvision is that sometimes is it becomes a massive HONDA meets, just look at the lollicup meets they help. They are good people though.

[burgy]

^ True, but if they sponsor it AS a VIP meet maybe it would be different. If not, I may be able to at least get a few of the photographers to come out. Again, I can only hope to have a y33 by then.

[jqnguyen8]

So, I just posted this on another Florida thread.

We need a location.....I'm not part of the planning, but I don't know what's happened to the Organizer...

I just want to meet some fellow VIP Peeps around Florida.

Is a Park okay for everyone?
A Parking Lot?

Who all are planning on going?

Here's some parks:

Gordon Barnett Park (Orlando)
(no picture) has big pavilions and can park cars around pavilion.

Bill Frederick Park and Pool at Turkey Lake (Turkey lake park) (Orlando)
Some pics from the park, not mine:

Blue Jacket park (Baldwin park) Orlando/winter park FL
Would be sweet for a pic if everyone can park cars by fountain.

Big area...not much to do there. Pics are not mine.

[burgy]

Blue Jacket looks like it could be a SICK photo op..... I don't really know much else about it though.

Also, I am getting my y33 shipped here next week I hope.

[harajuka]

+1 for Orlando, or even Jacksonville.. Im a photographer for tunerzine.com (http://tunerzine.com) so definitely would like to attend, and find some nice VIP's to feature on the site.

[lexusondubs]

id be willing to meet up with you guys depending on location :biggthumpup:

these looks like a great location... If we can all park on the grass or if there is a big parking lot that would work too...

I apologize for the wait guys I have had a really intense semester. I am preparing to apply to med-school...

Anyway I am still going to plan this event, obviously it will not be in December. I would like to give everyone a few months to plan ahead. Therefore I am considering holding it closer to the summertime, in the Orlando area.



I will check out these parks and let everyone know the final destination as soon as I know.

Again I am sorry for the delay. But I would like this to be done the right way, with the highest number of cars.

[implayaz_9]

It's not really anything to do with VIP persay, but it's a meet for exotic cars and such.
It's over by the Books-A-Million at winter park village. I don't think it's going on anymore though.

[burgy]

For any VIP owners that want to come to the event I have to stress that you need to pre-register.Due to the large interest in this event we are limited to how many cars show up and can only allow those who register because of limited parking.Once all the parking is taken up and if more show they will have to park in another area and walk over..

[Dr_Drift]

sorry guys...I am having a really difficult time choosing a date. I am currently applying to Medical School so please bear with me...this event will happen, its just a matter of time... thank you for understanding....Hopefully Ill have some more info within the next couple of weeks...

[VIPJAG]

Sign me up. Hopefully my jag will be done. so the later the better.

[jamerican]

Is this dead or are we trying to get this done?

I have a shop/used car dealership in Orange City with lots of yardspace, lot and a gas station across the street which the owner would welcome us (not to mention he consistently has the lowest gas prices in the area).

[SoloKamGS]

waiting for this to come up ????? cant wait for it.

[lexusondubs]

was something planned that was definite ??

[blacknmild]

Soooo... is this back on? Info. needed.

[burgy]

Good Question??? anyone?

[MELOMEL]

well we still got till the summer to plan this out!
as far as we know it WILL be held in orlando since i guess orlando is in the center of FL and easy to get too.
All we need now is the DATE!

[MELOMEL]

I think Blue Jacket park is just rite for a "VIP" background
and august 9th would be a great date being that its still some time away and its a sunday less ppl working and or in school.
so if you guys agree with this location and date i will start making the banner...

[ELFATHER F50 CIMA]

i am down to ft.lauderdale or miami :biggthumpup: right now but i am down

[iSuxeL]

I'm down for Orlando. Just LMK when and where. Damn summer will be hella hot dude...we should do a place that has a beach or something to chill when it gets insane

[MELOMEL]

OK....:dunno:

[MELOMEL]

was bored so i.........

http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b369/melsae92/vipban2.jpg

[Franklin]

I'm down.

[burgy]

rechecked my schedule and that will work now anyway...so just keep us posted.

[iSuxeL]

I don't think that date is set, I think he just made that flyer for fun

[BigMone]

Im down

[burgy]

I agree that august 9th in O-town could be HOT....maybe later in the month? We NEED to get this together though. I wanna meet more VIP pepz from Fl.

[Franklin]

As long as there's enough time for me to request time off work, I'm interested.

[SoloKamGS]

Can we host another meet in orlando ??????

[iSuxeL]

What ever happened to this?

[Marley263]

in Miami Beach Convention center. Thats where they had the DUB show and HIN.

[Meverett]

I take it nothing really happened with this but XDC is in march at cfrc with car show

[Seikensetzu]

there are many places that can work in the area. First......plan it right from the beginning. Have a group or team of people start making a nice flyer....a nice one that catches attention (no date announced) distribute it in plenty of forums, facebook whatever!
look for 3 possible locations and ask if its free parking etc. set location and set date as well. Beginning of summer or end of summer, people usually travel in mid-summer.
make real flyer and booom. Have a DJ, maybe try to get some aspiring models (<10) and one of those food trucks!!!
i know of a few locations that can work

[burgy]

I know Leo from State of Stance and I know he would be willing to help out we actually all got motivated.

Meverett, I should be at XDC....I actually make a bunch of the CFRC drift events as Rob is a good friend...I actually met my wife at his birthday party years ago...

[american cefiro]

miami is 2 far and damn there not enough vip cars up towards Tallahassee
orlandois the medium
