01SLPSS & I are heading down there. We were there in 2008. Largest car corral I've even seen.

I am not going, but it is a great idea for a winter vacation.

 

I was just looking at some of the photos. A bunch of really sweet cars.

Bob and I went down for Daytona Beachs' '1st Annual Dream Cruise' in October of 08. They attempted to duplicate Detroits' 'Dream Cruise',they failed BUT because of the 'other stuff' not officially connected to the dream cruise,it's worth going to. Found out about 'Mexico' acivities but were never able to get to those. Rt.A1A,along the beachs' commercial district,was active in the evening and at a shopping center up A1A,the lot was full of cruise cars and across the street in an open underground garage was 'Orlando Rat Pack',all chevy big block 'doorslammers'. They fired up and cruised on A1A.

A month later,we went to Daytona for the 'Turkey Rod Run'. At the tracks' infield was some national vendors,a swap meet(huge),car corral(could be 50% of the infield) and show cars. Also was the unofficial activities.

We were planning on the dream cruise this year,but Cedar Points' last few weekends took precident. We're going for the Turkey Rod Run,Thursday we'll do a couple local cruise-ins(their good car weather is just starting),Friday-Universal Islands of Adventure,Saturday-the Turkey Rod Run at the racetrack. Hope to get in also 'Coyote Ugly' in YBor(Tampa) and 'Cowboys'(country bar) in Orlando.
