Default Shows in FLA

Any good car shows in FLA? I know about the HIN in Miami in december and I always like Slamfest in Tampa, although that is more of a mini truck and SUV show than a car show, but most cars there are 1st class, not rice. Interested in any decent show in fl. I live in sarasota, about an hour south of tampa. Thanks

Rich

It would be great to have a good Lexus showing at this years BMS charity car show on August 16th. More than me and Vaki, lol.

I know of a few people from here that would like to go to shows. I think it is much more fun with a big group.

Hey guys. I live in West Palm Beach. Where are you all?. I'm fairly new to CL. Not many GSs around here so I would like to see a whole bunch of GSs driving in caravan and/or park at a popular place. That would turn heads !

I live in Miami so I don't know where you guys want to meet because I don't know where you guys live by but here's where you can register for the show and then later we can all talk about meeting up or whatever.

Speed Life on July 19 in Orange County Convention Center - Orlando - Registration is full but you can get on a stand by list if you want to register your car in the show, email INFO@SpeedLife.com with your name, address, phone, car make, model, year, and any modifications. There are still presale tickets to see the show though, go to speedlife.com

ImportRevolution on August 9 in Broward County Convention Center - Fort Lauderdale, FL - Register at ImportRevolution.com

I'm not sure about where to register for Super Street Tour ,but I'll find out.

Import Xpression September 27 Orange County Convention Center - Orlando - Register at ImportXpression.com

Hot Import Nights December 13 - Miami Beach Convention Center - Miami, FL - Register at HotImportNights.com

Anyone that wants to go see any of the car shows,or register their car and wants to meet up to drive together leave a message here, or email me and I'll give you my number to call me. WideBodyLexus@aol.com

I usually take I-95 to 528 (Bee-Line Expressway) which leaves you in international drive which is like 2 blocks from the convention center off of bee line and the toll is $2.50 for three tolls I think, Turpike is like $15 or more for tolls and it leave you a little further then internationl drive. It takes me like 3 1/2 hours taking my way vs the turpike going around 70 to 80. So post up any messages if you guys still want to ride to orlando together july 19 or any other shows.

Another big show that is real good is Slamfest in Tampa. 1400 cars in attendance last year. Its a 2 day show on Oct 3rd and 4th. I will definately be there and hopefully some of my friends. Let me know if anyone else wants to go to this show.

For SpeedLife July 19, I'm leaving July 18 around Noon because registration for the show begins around 4 and ends at 10 but I like to be there early to pick a nice spot and have time for setup and to wash the car, so if you guys are just going to see the show and not register your car I don't know what you guys want to do but whoever want to driveup together July 18 let me know and I'll meet up with you somewhere in West Palm or something, I'm staying at a friend's house in Orlando, but if you guys want to stay in a hotel, let me know I'll room up with anyone that needs a roomate, there is a Days Inn next to the convention center about half a block down which we can walk from the hotel to the show on sat. the addresse to the hotel is 9990 International Drive the number is 407-352-8700, I think the cheapest rates are like $49.99 but you can get 2 bed and have like 4 people split the cost. So just leave a message whoever wants to go July 18 with me. Also post up if your going July 19 just to see the show that way we can meet up at the show and hang out or something.
