Signing in from Orlando. Our mailing list has another 66 TR/TTA owners. Approx. 50 of those are in Orlando, the others from Clearwater, West Palm, Ocala and Daytona.

One guy is located in St. Louis, he never makes the monthly meetings though.

vader, answer to your ???

vader, i am dan boden, i live in jax now and am in the navy, i will be here for a few years at least, i have a 87 GN with all basic mods and te44 with homemade FM, i have gone to jax raceway once and didnt do to bad for total street trim
street racing around here has been pretty lame from what i found, i live in manderin so going to the north side to find races is kinda a trek....as for you...i am not sure where calahan is...i assume thats up toward GA somewhere
i would have to say i think me and kendall frederick are the most active GN/internet people in jax...you can find me on #turbobuick, and #buickgn most of the time
later
dan

Tyler, the racing is not lame you just have to know where to look. Go out to AE on Saturdays and follow everybody out to Pritchard Rd or wherever they decide to go and youll be happy.

Hey! No one else from Tallahassee??!?!?! I guess that makes me the fastest guy in the capitol city! Well, that is, if you don't count the guy here with the 9-sec 86GN. And if you don't count the guy with the GN powered TR-7 that will be running soon. And if you.... well you get the picture. I do have the second fastest car that will be street raced here. There is some punk that owns NRG racing(Home of the "Thin line between rice and race" shirts. YUK!). He has a Supra with a single turbo conversion. Supposedly he can run 10's, but the only time I've witnessed him run, it was a joke. He was trying to build boost on the line and broke the tires loose before they launched. He did eventually overtake the 13sec . rustang he was running against, but I'll get 'em. We have a local owners registry with around 15 guys on it, but some are in PC, Ocala, Woodville, etc. I only see around 3-4 GN's a week and no T-Type/T cars. Roy West and another guy have some GNX's and there are 2 Syclones here as well. The only other T-Type in town is owned by a doctor and he had it turned into a rag top. That's right, a convertible 86 T-Type. I have seen a Drk Blue 'T' here when students are in town, but only twice and that was a few years back. We do however have a decent bit of hot-air cars. I've seen a '79 Turbo Sport Coupe on the road lately that looks to be in really nice shape. Anyways, to those of you who have actually read all of this, Later!

BTW: If you see a White T-Type in Tally, it's really really fast!
