Hey guys, it was great to see everyone. I had a good time, got to check out Rob's new work area, got to check out Qarl's Elise, and even managed to give my phone number to the blonde hostess.
How about a 914 dinner next time... Ya'll are killing me with this getting up at 8 am to get there stuff.
Just kidding...

Great to meet some of the Florida contingent again (some for the second time, some for the first time).
All 914s present were beautiful.
Good food and great 914 conversation.
The ride home on I-4 sucked right around Haines City (as it always does). At least I got a suntan and was able to breath car fumes for an hour.
Glad you enjoyed taking the Elise for a spin. You should have opened it up a little and let the 2nd cam kick in! 2nd cam = shit eating grin + lots of noise + speed!

Sorry I missed it guys, my kids let me sleep in today!! Glad to see you got the car running Rob. Doug I have a pair of 911 horns, if you want them let me know I can throw them in a box for you.

Hey gang had a great time!
Rob, Thanks for putting it together. I enjoyed meeting Karl and Brett for the first time. Doug, what a great looking six, and the sound of T.C and Paul's cars really makes me want to get back on track with my project car.
Donnie sorry we missed you. Hope you'll make it to the next one.

Yo Florida boys, sorry I haven't been at the last few TBB's. My excuse right now is that I've been working in New Orleans for the past 5 weeks and I may be there for another 5 to 8 weeks. I got a position with a exterior wall and roofing consulting firm out of New York City and they have me on a major project inspection windows (5,000 windows) in a 40 story building. I got this position for the sole purpose of purchasing a very sweet all original John Player Special Europa.

Was the door locked????
