Default Anyone around the Daytona Beach area?

I'm just curious how the car scene is down there? Next year I'll be moving to Daytona Beach to go to school at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University... From what I've heard Florida has some pretty sick cars and being from the Houston area the car scene here is pretty big. I know the NASCAR track is literally right down the road from the school and so is the beach which I'm more than sure I'll be making a few visits to.

I live about 20 min outside of daytona and havent seen much yet, I work out of town so im only home every other week. Ive seen some pretty sick rides in Daytona, just not much for meets or anything. That steak and shake one i drove past just looked like they were all driving around drifting in the parking lot and mostly imports that night. If i find anything decent ill be sure to post up here.

It saw daylight. I had the door up! :-)

Header install is a half day deal. I am pretty booked thru Bike Week, but if you can wait a bit, and want to buy lunch and beer, I would be glad to watch you work :-). I have the tools, and would love to turn a wrench. Never know when I might need a hand :-).

Beer is on tap here... Just sayin!

Man, 2 kegerators!? Sounds like I found my new best friend! haha

I've been waiting to put these on for too long, with moving and changing jobs and whatnot, the headers have been sitting in my room for atleast 6 months.

My cam and everything else has been sitting even longer...Shoulda brought my truck down from Michigan for a 2nd DD

I am planning on going to Bithlo Dec. 15th with some guys from work. Anyone is welcome to meet me out there. I'll be the guy in the white Z28 cutting terrible 60's on street tires.

Throw money in the keg fund and you're welcome anytime (assuming you are 21 lol). As far as cam, hope it's huge and love to help those too so we'll chat sometime. :-)

Where in Daytona? I am in Deltona but work weekend speedway fire/rescue...
