Soon to be a newbie!
Hi All:
Later this week I will be fulfilling a long term ambition when I get my 2006 'vette. I'm a Brit who spends as much time as I can here but I'm restricted to 180 days in any 12 months as I'm an ALIEN! 
Love to get in touch with any local clubs around the Lakewood Ranch, Bradenton, Sarasota area.
Regards to all,
Flash.

 Welcome to the forum. Every 2nd and 4th satuday of the month, theres always a small group of local fellow vette owners who meet at Joey D's on 41 and cortez on the second saturdays, and hooters on 41 and cant think of the light north of 53rd lol.
If your available next saturday, some of us are meeting up and going for a cruise to a dyno day held at antivenom i believe then heading over to the car show at joey d's.
Maybe Ill see ya around the bradenton area, if you see a stealth black c6, thats very loud, more then likely me lol.

When I get there, its around 530 and majority of the local vette crew is there(look for the corvette canopy lol), and some come a bit later. Usually ends around 830/9.
Be forwarned, there is a GT500 owner who comes who thinks corvettes are plastic pigs(i guess in her world 4k+ lbs is lighter then a 3200lbs?!?!)....instant enemy haha. A lot of nice cars come as well. Last Joey D's meet there was a huuuuge vette turn out from the regular crew.
Rick(C5Rick) and Tim(Curacao), are the ones who keep the locals informed. So if you see a post by them in the events section usually leads to a good time.

LOL!! Yeah, maybe. But be careful. There are some law enforcement and ex-LEO types here who might pull you over and commandeer your vehicle.
