As the title says i will be moving to Fl very soon, in about 2 weeks or so. I currently live in N.J and i just want to know if there are any local 240 poples around and how are the car meets if any and just looking to meet some new tuner friends to be honest. Being new in a place where you know no one is never any fun... lol

Yeah I moved there solo back in 07 to Ft Lauderdale, but came back when my dad got hurt on the job. My mom is ill so they needed some help. But now 3 years later they are moving down as well as my brother so it makes sense. I just gotta make sure I can transfer down. It might take a year, but im there.

Drivers get crazy in ATL, the FL ones just can't drive. They all drive better when it is raining out for some reason. Amazes me. Dead serious.

Super hot in FL. You definitely need AC! lol

FL Is also super expensive. Not a lot of land for cheap.

Its probably best time to buy now anyways. 4700 sq ft. down there is 600-800k if not more. Most are located near ponds and lakes anyways so this drives up the value. Best idea is to get an apartment but there are some nice double wide trailers if you perfer that or what fits in the budget, heh.

Hey cjmirabal, im from the orlando area, and there is a lot of 240 peeps in the area. Youll be missing a drift event at Central Florida Road Course by 1 day lol but they have them twice a month so no big deal. The not having ac thing is only bad about 10 months out of the year lol its really bad right now as everyday is about 90+ degrees, but trust me you'll get use to it. Let me know when your finally down here and ill let you know about some of the car meets in the area. Where are you going to be going for school?
