well if you're willing to come down to south florida there's about 5-6 races(import races that is) at moroso motorsports park in a year. other than that we have some solo racing down in miami every month. we also have homestead speedway which allows the track to be rented out by clubs and used for the day when theres not an event going on. and finally we got some really kick ***( when i say kick *** i mean vipers with nos, supras putting down 700+ hp and rx7 on slicks on the street) street races every tuesday, thursday, and saturday night starting about 11 pm till about 2-3 am depending on the police

Also you guys was talking about street races and other races in FL in Tampa theres always import street races on the weekend....and theres a track in Lakeland called Lakeland drag strip...where you will always see the best rotaries from central Florida there.and of course Tampa has the world fastest bug from Fisher Buggies always at the track....

true, but i figured since this is a rotary forum...

I just want to see fast cars. Like, if there was an event that pitted american vs imports that would be sweet. But, i meant mostly rotaries. We got this huge race up here, PanAm's, but they get too crowded.

As far as bugs. Im saving that trip for cali. I hear theres a show/race where in order for you to place in your category your car not only has to look good, but perform well on the track. Sorry, no trailer queens.

Is the race there like over here. They advertise it as USA vs PR, but 90% of all racers/spectators are puertoricans?

Well you missed the ROLEX this year (last weekend- It was awesome) But the 12 hours of Sebring is coming up around the corner. The track is in the middle of nowhere so don't expect any other excitment than the race (and you can't forget the after race festivities- It gets maaaaad crazy after that race in the middle of the night)
