Thanksgiving weekend.

big_al_71 · 11-02-2010, 11:55 PM

I am planning to be there.

Only 45min. up there, I'll probably get up there a couple of times. Our car club has a vendor site. We're supposed to display the cop car clone again under that first big hangar in the front where you go in across the track. Have out of town kin-folks coming for Thanksgiving so I can't go and just hang out for 4 days like I'd like to.

I usually go but I'm skipping out this year. I was in Daytona last week and it was great. There was no one there we stayed at the beach for $40 a night and there was like 5 other guests at the hotel. The weather was great and the beach was empty after 3pm. You know we as Floridians only have a few weeks of perfect weather and no tourists and we hit it at the perfect time. Hope the weather is just as good for you who are going as it was for us last week.
