Northwest Florida or the Florida Panhandle generally encompasses everything from Pensacola to Tallahassee. We don't have nearly the amount of people of the bigger cities in Florida, so a weekly meet is not really practical but biannual community meets would be nice. I have made an effort to meet as many S2000 owners as possible in the area. I went to Tally a few weeks ago with another S2000 owner to pick up the set of BBS wheels that were for sale. I was the only Panhandle person to go to Ricky's Florida meet last year. I have worked on at least 6 S2000s in my local area.

If you look at the main Florida section, there are already at least 6 topics just on the first page that are Northwest Florida / Panhandle questions. I have tried to help out people in those threads as much as possible. We all know that Facebook groups are growing in popularity versus message forums, but it's hard to encourage people to get on s2ki.com instead of just starting a Facebook group when there isn't a community organizer or section to post things for the local area.
