Default Wheres the racing scene at in Florida?

I just moved to Daytona Beach for a little while for college, I didn't bring my ss but brought some daily driver to beat around in, so where is the big car scene at? I always see video's of tt lambo's supras, is it all down south Florida? Anything around Daytona Beach?

I moved to Daytona Beach about 3 months ago, So i'm still learning the area too.

There's a group of us "Central Florida GM performance Club" thats meeting in Longwood tomorrow night. Hopefully Cole, aka Cooldude see's this (originator of the club).

Let me know if you're interested, I'll give you details.

Orlando Speed World in Bithlo isn't that far, they're supposed to be annoucing a new owner Jan. 15th

Other than that, there's the turkey rod run in November that was pretty awesome. ****'s guna get crazy with race week coming up...

You should bring your SS down!

Thats really neat, yeh I haven't been here a week I'd love to bring my ss down, just the fear of it getting messed up worries me, its a mint garage queen i purchased with 18k miles and it barely ever sleeps outside.

Are you talking about the grand am / the rolex coming up?

That tracks not too far, about an hr, but I guess thats where all the nasty local cars go!

What kinda cars meet in longwood, is it just like an ls1tech type meet or all different kinds of cars? Sucks being far from home I pretty much have nothing

Ls scene is here in the Daytona area. Look in the Florida section for meets in the immediate area. Race week really means 3 weeks of everything. If you don't have a place for your 18k mile ride to park inside, it'll run you nuts. Can't focus on school.

Owners are all around, just trying to get everyone all together in one place at the same time can be tricky....
