Default Gassers In Florida?

A few years back there was a nostalgia drags meet over in Lakeland. Been hoping to take the family to see some gassers and fed’s, but do not see anything on the horizon. I see that the South East Gassers run events up in GA, AlL and NC, but see no Florida events. Does anyone know of any pending events anywhere in Florida where these cars would be running?

Thanks man! I’ll look that up. Hopefully some nostalgia stuff will show. I used to run (test & tune nights) a ‘69 I had out there. Hopefully they will be running the full quarter. Can’t stand that 8th of a mile stuff. Thanks again!

Totally agree! I like to watch drag racing from 2 points though… from the tree, and then the trap. At the World’s Fastest Street Car Shootout, it’s fun looking at the driver when they come across the 1/4 trap at over 200. Some of them really look like they have their hands full! Thanks again for the “heads up” on Musclepalooza. I hope to be there!
