Default In-Formal Car Show Bradenton ?

Tampa has a get together at Insty Tune every Saturday evening. Is there any interest in having something similar in the Bradenton / Sarasota area. There does seem to be a few of us in the area. Got the idea when Joe kept us hanging around the Wing House all day.
Maybe get together once or twice a month just to BS &

That could be a cool idea. Perhaps a different place every month to try different restaurants or one common place for all to meet. I think it's doable.

If this is going to happen, it will have to be a joint effort from "the group" so anything I say here are only my ideas at this point. The Tampa Insty Tune gathering seems to work well, so I'm looking at them as a source. It would be great for Andreh to open a place down here for us to meet.

I think one location would work best so people would always know where it's at. This is more of just a meet & BS, so a restaurant wouldn't be needed, but can't rule one out as an option.
Would be nice to find a spot that has some lighting

I think once or twice a month

Sounds like a great idea. Some of us from the Tampa area could make a run down there too on occasion. Might be a good caravan

I'd suggest finding a spot (even if it is Ricks parking lot) and keeping it there. If it's a business, establish a rapport with them, let them promote it.

Moving it around means people will have to look for you. People generally speaking, are lazy. Usually results in poor turnout and a show or gathering thats hard to build.

Think about moving your bank around evry week
