Florida track day

Sometimes in Fl it gets hot. I'm not talking about the temperature but rather about the trash talking. Recently on the Samba a thread went up over who had the fastest car. Not only did it become a hot thread but it also sparked one hell of a track day. Everyone met up at the track on Sat afternoon. There was over 50 VW's there. This is a non VW event so we had a good turnout to say the least. All different clubs wee representing and lots of familiar faces were there. There was some serious in your face trash talking at the track, but unfortunately the score didn't get settled. After everyone got to do a test and tune run, it started to rain and the track called a rain out which means there will be a redo. I will be there for sure!

Wide5 Hangs with Miami V-Dub's Dubs on the bay

Summer in Florida is definitely hot. Not much going on in the way of VW shows. But one event definitely worth attending is Miami V-Dub's Dubs on the Bay! Starting out in Miami's Tropical park it involves a cruise to the beach for a hang out style BBQ. Several Wide 5ers attended and really enjoyed it. From the cruise to the beach it's always fun mixing it up with old and new friends. Here's some pics from the day which don't actually show the scope of the event. " Hey guys, send me some beach shots." Also there were no reports of Pat rummaging through any ones beer stash...........or at least he didn't get caught!

Wide 5 on the water

Fellow Wide5 member Capt. Tony Stewart took a few members on a boat ride. From what I heard it was a fun trip with lots of beer and some good laughs. A good time was had by all and the three hour tour was without incident as Capt. Tony is very professional. HMMMmmm......Anyway The yacht arrived at its new home on the water with all hands still accounted for. Tony, do I hear us hitting an England show in style? It's just on the other side of the pond!
