Hey Lets converge on it from all directions. Anybody want to plan a caravan over there from the East Coast? Im in Daytona.....
I can be in Ocala in the same length of time it takes to get to the Mall at Millennia.

I agree, this road-trip ISN'T just for Corvette-owners from Orlando:
we'd appreciate ANY Corvette-owners who'd like to join us either FOR the drive from Orlando, or MEETING-US at the Museum:
I appoint YOU in-charge of organizing the faction from Daytona who want to meet us AT the Museum that day!
:thumbsup:

I can do that. Lets say the Wal-Mart Parking lot at the intersection of Route 40 and I-95 at 8:30. Lots of places to eat around there and plenty of parking. I will see what I can round up. :thumbsup:

Litevette,
That might work for those from Cocoa and Melbourne, but from Daytona I can be in Ocala in the same length of time it takes to get to the Mall at Millennia. :confused:

:shrug01: I think the majority (at least the folks I know) would be coming from the other areas mentioned. Maybe you could get a seperate caravan going from over your way. 528, 408, I-4 Eastbound and the Turnpike are all within relatively close proximity compared to driving out towards Daytona.
 
Not sure if we can make it at this point, but a meeting at 40 & I-4 is just as
close as I-4 and turnpike. Starting to look like lots of vettes and a good time.
:thumbsup:
 
Add at least 2 more!

Great place and person. Been there several times (took daughter once & she loved it). Once while there, Garlits himself came out and talked with me (probably cause I had on all kinds of NHRA stuff at the time) and took me behind the doors and let me help him and a couple other workers push out his first dragster/rail that had been undergoing some repairs, back into the museum. I felt like the president of the US (not this Bush one!).
Anyway, as usual, I've rambled on.
Count me and my wife in!:thumbsup:
 
I was just at the museum this past Saturday for the first time. It is great. I am going to bring up the road trip to the Space Coast Corvette Club at our meeting on Jan. 7th. Hopefully we can pull some more folks to go. I plan on being there.:yesnod:

That would be great if they come. I've only seen a Corvette caravan once in my life and man, what a sight!

The toy parade had 66 Corvettes and that was breathtaking.

You could see one every month at the TBV Breakfast Cruise, and it's looking like we'll have a decent-sized one for the 5 Bridges run. :D
 
This sounds like a good time, been wanting to check out the museum, so this is a great opportunity. I'll throw it out to my club to see how many want to come. :thumbsup:
 
We are just 28 days-away from the road-trip to Garlits', and I strongly request anybody interested to sign-in on one of the threads regarding this event:
Garlits told me he offers a $3-discount, per-person, on groups of 10-or-more, and asked if I'd be nice-enough to give him a 'general' head-count before we show-up that day.
 
I will know more after our general membership meeting on Jan. 7th.
I know the wife and I are going.... hope to have a few more from the Space Coast Corvette Club.
I'll keep you posted. Thanks for the effort. :thumbsup:
