BlakeS Report post Posted October 12, 2009 Pulling into the gas station when we made our way to Naples. My dad and MarkM's dad fueling up the cars...we used a little less than a half a tank to get across the alley!

Iceman Report post Posted October 12, 2009 That was the first group. They supposedly called in an extra 10 Troopers to I-75 duty after spotting the first few cars. At first they though we were the Gator Run event, but that was cleared up at our special lecture. There were 3 clusters of cars. My cluster was made up of those who were hauling a bit too much ass and missed one of our exits. They earned about 20 of us a Lecture by the Trooper Sarge the the first Rest Stop 6 miles after the I-75 Toll. The best part was when the Trooper asked if there were any questions, so my buddy Jake with the Noble M400 asked if he though his Trooper Charger could take his Noble.... he shot back, "Hey, I can do 170 in that thing..." (with a slick smile of course...). From there, it was careful speed spurts all the way up. I had to stop for a quick check of an A/C switch, which earned me the Dragon's Tail End, and therefore was pretty much escorted at 80 by 3 Troopers all smiling at me through my Rear View. One got pissed (gave us the evil "Watch Yourself Boy" eyes and dbl finger point) when my wife held up her phone to snap a pic as he was passing. To be honest, this only added to the adventure of the run, but man, 80 was quite punishing in the Rossion which was so damn eager for more (although we did get it.... plenty of times ;-) !! All in all, great number of cars and good event!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SV-N-IT Report post Posted October 12, 2009 no sun block.. lol i had a good time! we actually stayed at the ritz ocean resort so i didnt get to see most of the guys... yep most got tickets, but atleast they did not tow the cars TG. give me a 2k ticket but leave my car with me lol blake, thx for the awesome pics!!! we have to do this again soon, just with better organization we should have all taken it easy until we made it to the alley. (which is partially my fault) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hovik Report post Posted October 12, 2009 we should have all taken it easy until we made it to the alley. (which is partially my fault) Hahaha... no such thing as taking it easy during runs... one person passes 5K rpm and everyone follows... nobody wants to be left behind, or get lost... Glad you guys had a good time. I75 should be a no speed limit highway... there's nothing to crash into in miles, there's no turns in miles... only thing to actually hit there is the popo's cruiser with an extremely bored cop inside it...

Mr. Vroom Report post Posted October 12, 2009 . give me a 2k ticket but leave my car with me lol Tell us more. Just a headzup for next time Bill, but if they do haul your ass in, the official police photographer will make you take the bandanna off for the mugshot.
