We have a shop in Ft. Myers, but Rev Xtreme is closer and will more then likely have more F body guys hanging around.
Have fun in Fla.
Sarosota has nice beaches, and hopefully some even nicer women.

If you're bringing your car down, you owe it to yourself to check out Bradenton Motorsports Park, Test and Tune on Thursday nights (3/30/06) 6-11 pm, great 1/4 mile track and easy drive from Sarasota. www.bradentonmotorsports.com

If you feel like heading over to Tampa there's Busch Gardens and Adventure Island.

Go to Siesta Key for the beach in Sarasota. It is the best beach around that area. You have BMP on Thurs and Sunshine on Wed night but they are in St Petersburg. Not a whole lot going on in Sarasota. As far as a good shop close RevXtreme is the closest one to ya that will have anything going on.

Supposedly Girls Gone Wild was filming in Clearwater/St. Pete a couple weeks ago.. hehe

Siesta should have been the location, but they tightened the dress codes here

Siesta beach was ranked #2 under Miami for best beaches in the world by the Travel channel. The sand is like powdered sugar.

http://www.sarasotagolfnet.com/index1.html Bobby Jones is a nice course, they have a "British Side" that is really opened up. It's season, so call in advance for a T-time, and it aint cheap (usually $25 and up for 18 holes).



Quick Reply: Any LS1/F-Body shops near Sarasota? Anything fun to do there period?
