I've got to make a sales trip to Florida the week of February 17th. If I can help anybody with stuff that might be too bulky to ship, or too heavy, I'll try to help. I'll be in a Subaru Outback, and I'll need to leave room for samples, but if it's something smallish like a Miata tranny, I can probably swing it. I won't have a lot of time to make drop offs during the day, but right now I'll be coming into Jacksonville Sunday evening, coming down I-75 then I-10 to Jacksonville. Monday will take me down to Daytona and over to Deland, stopping for the night in Cape Canaveral, so I'll have more time between Deland and Cape Canaveral Monday night. Tuesday I'll be going down to Stuart and then over to Okeechobee, and possibly on up to Sebring. Most likely end up in Ft. Myers Tuesday night, then heading up to to Tampa/St. Pete on Wednesday. Stay in the Tampa or Lakeland area Wednesday night, then central area during the day Thursday. Not sure yet where I'll end up Thursday and where I'll be Friday. Would prefer to do handoff's at lunch or in the evenings, I'll be hitting 6-7 appointments each day, and time will be tight. Just figure it's a nice way to meet some new folks & do something good at the same time.

I'm in gainesville and need to pick up a beefy electric motor from sarasota and need to send a set of 13" diamonds up to SvRex. I'd be glad to throw in a lunch and or some gas money if either of those work out.

The motor to Sarasota might be difficult unless you could meet me Sunday afternoon/evening around I-10/I-75, but if I don't go into the panhandle, I should be able to take the wheels up to SvRex. I should know more about my schedule by the week before & be able to finalize plans.

The motor is likely a pia anyway (it weighs 175lbs). Let me know if we can get together and BS/get you Paul's wheels.

Will do. Haven't seen Paul in a few years, be good to have an excuse to go see him

MrJoshua, Can you meet me at I-75 at 10 am Friday morning? I've got to get off on exit 387 going to Newberry, or I could meet you at one of the exits below that a few minutes earlier. I'm on a schedule, got to be in Newberry at 10:30, but if you can work that out, we'll see if Paul can meet me later that afternoon and I'll drop them off. Are the wheels decently clean, or can we put them in some garbage bags?

Will a motorcycle fit back there ? There's a RD350 I've been dreaming about in Florida.

lol, doubt it, it's an '01 Outback, good bit of room, but not a ton.

I'm at work at that time, are you coming through in the other direction on another day? I can travel a bit on other days. If Friday is the best time for you spinout 007 works just off of 75 at exit 390 so I'm sure we can work it out. I will bag them.

No, I'll be coming down to Jacksonville tomorrow night, then down to Stuart on Tuesday, over to Fort Myers to start Wednesday morning, up to Tampa, and start in Belleview on Friday morning. If spinout could meet me at 387, that would work. I don't have a lot of time between appointments, trying to maximize time before high tailing it back home. I've got it in my head that Paul is in Valdosta, is that right?

When are you in or around Tampa or sarasota area? Maybe I could go get my motor and bring the wheels to you. Will have to check on Paul's specific location.

I'll be in Sarasota Wednesday. Week will start out in Jacksonville Monday morning, down to Daytona Beach, then go check out GRM HQ :D Tuesday starts in Cape Canaveral, down to Stuart and over to Okeechobee, down to Fort Myers. Start Wednesday in Fort Myers, end in Clearwater. Start Thursday in Clearwater, over to Plant City, up to Lakeland, then Bushnell and Deland. Back to Belleview, start there Friday, up to Newberry, over to Old Town, up to Live Oak, then to Paul & then beeline to Chatsworth, GA

Any guesses of when you will finish the appointment in Newberry Friday? That's not far me and the timing might be right for me to come to you. IIRC Paul is in Albany Georgia now.

Should be done by 11:00. Just sent Paul an e-mail to check his schedule, hopefully we can work this out.

The tires are either heading Paul's way or safely nestled in his caring hands. Thank you Dave! :)
