There were 7 Miata's and 3 OTM's (other than Miata), plus two members met us at the Park. The weather was cloudy, a bit windy, and cool, but no worries for the members that attended the drive-out to Fox Lake Park in Titusville, FL, for the annual British Car Show. The weather held, and all enjoyed viewing these classic and beautiful cars. Lunch was at Dixie Cross Roads, in Titusville, where we ate our fill.
