[Dean]

Hi

I am going on vacation in Florida from d. 18.2.2011 to 7.3.2011, Can any you recommend some classic cars events or dealer, I can visit in that period.

I have bought tickets to the Daytona 500, I've never seen a NASCAR race before, so I am very excited

I would highly recommend checking out Gunnar Racing. They do some awesome work and typically have some sweet cars sitting around.

Send them an email, to touch base and let them know you are coming. A couple years ago I was told it is best to try and visit on a saturday when someone will have more time to show you around.

We at Gunnar do welcome visits on Saturdays but you must e-us to know we are in town and-or....... I'm not painting something... (can't give the 5 cent tour if I'm in the spray booth)

Kulbsport is also worth a visit if in town.
