Cars and Muscle.

[Stage3]

Anyone here with a Lambo going to the Cars and Muscle show at Sports + Field? I saw the flyers posted all over the gym the other day and rumor has it that they MIGHT be having a Pagani Zonda in attendance. The list of cars coming out is comprised of the best of the best... Lambo, Ferrari, Porsches, Vipers... blah de blah. It's on the 5th of May (I think) at the complex... I need to find out more information about the show. Anyone here bringing out any of their Bulls?

[pdisme]

I've never even heard of the event; do you have the details? It would be an adventure to navigate the G around the speed mountains on the USF campus but I'd do it to rub elbows with a Zonda. Surprised I haven't heard of it if it's got that level of exotics going. I was supposed to be at Sebring that way but i don't have a spot so I'll just be going that night for my track day on the 6th.

And everybody remember my b-day is the 7th, so buy me something. :)

[Stage3]

Actaully, Sports + Field is the gym I train at. It's in Wesley Chapel right off of 56 between Bruce B. Downs and 75. i'll have to get more info on it, because it's apparently a pretty big deal. They have a "connected" clientel, so I could imagine that they have some serious cars out. I'll find out more info when I go to the gym tomorrow. I saw it today and I just read it. I'll see if I can have a flyer or an entry form if you so desire... ;)

[pdisme]

Oh, now that you mention that, it rings a bell. I spoke to Jeff who's organizing it, it's on May 5th, Saturday, 10 am to 2 pm. I should get in touch with him, I wasn't sure if I was going to be in town that weekend but now it looks like I will for Saturday. Unfortunately I don't think there's a website for the event.

That'd be it! And no... there isn't a website up. So, just out of curiousity... how did you hear of the show?

[pdisme]

Good question, unfortunately I don't remember, I just have some emails from Jeff a few weeks ago but I'm not sure how I found out about it or contacted him. He does a lot of racing so it may have been something related to that.

[Stage3]

Well, hopefully I'll see you out there! Bring the Spyder even if you aren't showing. I need to see that thing in person. :grinning-smiley-003

[Minch00]

Something else to go to? -_-

Why is gas $3 a gallon NOW!?



If there is a Zonda I will go. But I need confirmation in advance otherwise I don't know if it'll be worth it.

[pdisme]

I'd love to see a Zonda; not that people don't have them but being non street legal and as rare as they are, could there really be one in Tampa of all places? :)

[Matt]

I doubt, if there is going to be a zonda, that it'll be owned by someone, probably a company that trailers one around to events for promo kind of thing. I'll definetly be down for that. Dave... SHOTGUN!!!

Birthday on the 7th so buy you something... my birthday was on the 13th... nobody bought me SHIT! :lol2:

[Stage3]

I'll confirm if they are indeed going to be brining a Zonda out when I go to the gym later today. It says it on the flyer... but saying and actually doing are two very different things.

[pdisme]

They should advertise at the cars & coffee this weekend, a lot of people would flip for a Zonda, if it pans out.

Cars and Coffee again this weekend? It feels like it was last weekend when the last one was around. Same location and time?

[pdisme]

Yep, third Saturday of every month, rain or shine, although I won't be there if it's rain. :)

[Matt]

Any word on this yet?

[P1 Groupe]

Hey guys, this is Jeff, who is organizing the event at Sports + Field. Thanks for all of the interest in what's going on. I actually have been trying to get a Zonda for the show, nothing remotely confirmed of course, as they "quite" hard to come by! We raced one in 2003 at Sebring, and it is absolutely a piece of work.

I do have one gentleman who is wanting to bring his Saleen S7, and looks to confirm this week. Not italian unfortunately, but not everyone can be perfect! ;-)

I certainly invite all of you out to the show, owners, bring your cars for display, and enthusiasts, come and enjoy the show, as well as the food provided by Panchero's. Great stuff. Show will be from 10am-2pm Saturday, May 5th. Cars for display should arrive at 9am. Sports + Field is located on SR 56 just east of I-75 (exit #275)

P1 Groupe is my race management company, and I am also directing all of Sports + Field's Marketing and Visual Design work right now. Carlos, hope you are enjoying yourself!

Again, thanks to all, and feel free to contact me with any questions

Mille gratzi!

[Matt]

Sounds good. Dave you gonna bring the spyder?

[pdisme]

I might go, I don't think I can exhibit though since I'm only in town that day for business reasons and may need to disappear without notice.

[P1 Groupe]

Dave, I certainly hope you can bring the Spyder along, but if not I certainly understand. Matt, are you going to be bringing a car? Certainly round up anyone who would like to come and display! All are welcome!

Jeff

[pdisme]

I'm going to try to come up to check things out, I'll bring the Lambo if I do.

[P1 Groupe]

Sounds great, man. Looking forward to it; hope everything works out!

Jeff,

Yes, I am enjoying myself! I love the gym and the facility in general. Denise (my trainer) is whooping my ass yet I love every second of it! I'm actually looking forward to this show and have been telling a lot of people about it. Can't wait until next weekend... :clap:

[P1 Groupe]

Great to hear, Carlos. It's awesome to know that everyone is being kept happy... and thanks for spreading the word about the event!

Ciao,
Jeff

[Stage3]

So, Dave... are you coming out this weekend? I intend on being there and hopefully, I can feel what the inside of a Lambo is like! :D:beerchug:

[pdisme]

Right now I plan to stop by for an hour Saturday morning, then take off for Sebring around 1 PM. I'll give you a call either way Saturday morning to see what the plan is.

[Matt]

I might stop by and check it out.

[Stage3]

Word is bond. Hopefully I can finally meet you guys!

[P1 Groupe]

I expect this event to be a bit smaller, but would love to see it grow, maybe looking at having it a few times a year and making it a fixture in the community. Thanks for the response guys, looking forward to meeting all of you.

Dave, give anyone else a call from the "Cars & Coffee" crowd and let them know they are more than welcome to come out. I would love to have been at the last one to spread the word personally!

Forza Milano!

How 'bout that Zonda? :)

[Matt]

How 'bout that Zonda? :)

Yeah, get a Zonda, and they will come... :lol2:

[Matt]

Dave, you gonna show? I'm trying to decide if i'm waking up at 8:30 or not.

[pdisme]

Instant message me; if I'm up I'll probably go, I'm still getting all my shit ready to leave for Sebring but if I get it wrapped up I'll be ready. Spyder is all dirty, hopefully I won't overhear the "If I had a car like that there's no way I'd let it get dirty" :lol2:

[Matt]

Yeah, so I slept through my alarm clock anyway. Its now 1:15 and I JUST woke up. :lol2:

[pdisme]

I spoke to Carlos just before leaving for Sebring; I told him I was running behind and wouldn't make it but he said there were some nice cars there, just not a large number. Maybe he'll post up some pics for us?! :)

[Stage3]

Yeah, I took some good photos of the cars... but I'm currently in Ft. Myers... So, I'll post them when I get back home.

[Stage3]

Back in the Dub-C. So... here are the pictures as requested. :)

I got a chance to talk with Jeff about the show... Seems like I missed the Ferrari's and the Porsche's by showing up at almost 1 pm... but, it was still cool... I'm hoping that they make this a permanent thing... They can only build on this and make it better!

[pdisme]

Which car was the race stuff installed in? Was that the viper?

[Minch00]

Looks like it.



Glad I didn't travel all the way out there for the show.

[zzzzdoc]

Just don't like the interior on that Maserati. Beautiful on the outside, needs massive styling help on the instrumentation.

Real nice looking Viper.

[P1 Groupe]

That was in fact the Viper GT3 Comp Coupe. Thanks for coomcing out carlos, it was great to see you! We are certainly looking at making this a regular event, and have a great start to grow on. Looking forward to seeing all of you out the next time! We will probably do this a couple times per year...
