Nope, I have my schedule for the outlaws and HL. Florida is not one of them.
My mom and dad passed away a number of years ago. My son and I go to a fair amount of races. He likes Schatz, I have been able to really rub it in over the last few years, since Schatz is out to lunch most nights.
Let's go Sprint Car Racing!

For those going to East Bay, Clearwater Beach is one of the most gorgeous places in the world. And there's a lot of small cheap great motels there under 150. The brother and I just got back from there for a wedding. On the way home, we looked at each other and said, "did you see one negative person?" It was literally the happiest most laid back place we have ever been too.

East bay for me. Boy when I think back all the good memories. It will be odd walking out Saturday night and realizing it's over.

Its about about 60 to 65 miles depending on where you are at in Clearwater. I had an aunt and uncle that lived in Clearwater for over 30 years and when I got the chance to go to speeweeks, I would commute back and forth to East Bay nightly from there. I would recommend traveling over in the late morning to avoid the heavy Tampa rush hour traffic.

Tampa is only 10 minutes away. Gibsonton (East Bay) is like a suburb of Tampa
