There's a spot we go to in miami and we drag race very Sunday night. They start at about 10pm and go until whenever. Last weekend I left at 1am and they were still running. About 300 feet of drag and 200 to stop. It's all for fun but there's always plenty of people there if you want to take it up a notch from just fun. No classes. Just run what you brung. It's on the northwest corner of biscayne blvd and 79st. In the shopping center there.
 
Thank a lot for the info I found some guys this weekend that run rc funny cars and dragsters thay run every other sat thay set up a real tree spray vht down its pritty cool u get a time slip after every pass just like real drag racing but thanks again for the info behear . If there's anything I could help u out with just halla at me

I hear there’s a place somewhere on okeechobee near turnpike I’m trying to find out where myself
 
It's always been my dream to fish for bass in Lake Okeechobee.
There are some nice bass in there, but in central Florida we got the big girls in a lot of lakes. Okeechobee, Lake Placid, Istokpoga, the Kissimmee chain, the Harris chain. My son got a 10+ pounder on Placid, I even got a 10+ from a golf course canal. Got an 8 in Dinner lake, dozens in the 4-5 pound range, countless up to 4

Dayum!
 
I was gonna say - a kayak in Florida, no thank you sir! Give me a PBR on the waters in Florida any day! Yeah, this would be me.

Even then I would be afraid of a gator or shark jumping on deck.

@NCNitro
I used to shake and sweat going over the gator spots. Ones on the Turnpike where the snake wall rest stop is. The second is St john I think. Its above Seminole on I4, gators visable everytime I go over it.


As for drag racing..... . Orlando used to have street racing at Best Buys. I have an Ofna Ultra castle converted that was raced at those races. I scored it through work, the guy owed money for work, I was owed hours and got the 1/8 Aston.

Garlits museum of drag racing also has events.
