You mean car meets? Tower shops every Friday, it's been a weekly venue for years. Lots of car clubs hold their get-togethers there too. Other than that, there are weekly meets on Glades and 441 in Boca but I've never been to them. I personally hang out with my BM's at Tropical Park on Thursday nights every once in a while.

The Gs down here usually meet up a ton, but we haven't done anything recently apart from the upcoming tech day. We'll have a big meet in February before the annual Lokey meet too

the trees in the front yard are a pretty good spot, make sure the branch is at least 8 inches wide though, dont want the rope breaking anything but their necks....

I used to go to that checker's when I livwed in Miami. There used to be some sick cars that would show up, but that was close to 10 years ago. Do people still go there?

I haven't been to the Tower Shops in awhile, but that is a good time (usually.) The down side is that it always ends early.

The good thing is that you used to be able to leave the Tower shops and head over to Fuddruckers on Federal (north of sunrise) to check out the bikes (and get a burger and shake. )

BTW, tower shops is a friday night thing

I swung by the Tower Shopps for about an hour Friday night, didnt see any other Gs there.

Do any of you go any more? If so, what time do you show up? I normally get there a little early (630-ish) to get parked and then hang out with my friend and his Mustang group - except for the one time there were some other Gs

9 out of 10 and you were the only G there? We must really get something going down here in south florida. somewhere in broward county sounds right. this way Palm Beachers can join. Kinda like what the FRINKIN FLORIDA MARLINS need to do with a stadium, but that off course is for another thread elsewhere! RX

If there's ever a Towers meet, it will be posted on this forum. We haven't met up at Towers in about a month because yours truly was too busy recovering from a 4-car wreck and then we had the holidays... Right after the tech day at Raul's house on Sunday we'll start planning on the next big meet in late Jan - early Feb. Apart from that we can think of a weekly/bi-weekly spot where we all can go for dinner on weekends now that there's a lot of interest. Oakwood Plaza in Hollywood maybe, or the Davie Ale House?
