So I'm down in Tampa for a class, visiting from Seattle. I saw online there is a shuttle launch tomorrow and I was considering driving over to watch it. I'm just curious since i can't get tickets into the public viewing area at NASA if you can actually get close enough otherwise to make the viewing worth the drive? It's roughly 150 miles from where I'm at and id hate to drive thar far just to see a smoke trail! Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!!
Also, will any locals be at the test and tune at Sunshine dragstrip tonight? Looking to kill some time and thought about checking out the track. Might try to run the rental charger
