There are a couple car museums down there. Nothing really mind-blowing. There is a rad indoor carting place though. Shotgun beers in parking lot, race, repeat. I really like the aquarium, and there's a barcade in ybor that used to have Ferrari Challenge.
aquarium is good, downtown st pete is always a good time, right on the water front. thats where they run the grand prix.

Fantasy of Flight in Polk City.
CFRC autoX is Sat morning 9am - 1pm in Orlando, and I believe they have drifting and drags starting at 4 pm
East Bay Speedway dirt stock car track runs on Sat night.
Bif Burger in St Pete has a huge cruise in on Fri nights, and damn good burgers
Actually, CFRC is doing a "mini roadcoarse" event this saturday morning. It's rent-a-car friendly and they have loaner helmets
Great stuff! Thanks Guys
have you been to one of those championship games before? do you know if scalping tickets would be easy? I might drive up on Saturday if BC wins tomorrow.
There is a great Taco Bell in Tampa on Dale Mabry 
Mon Venus used to have nude car washes for charity. Owner Joe Redner is a real character.

We go every year. You can typically find scalpers outside
Busch Gardens far better than Rat World. (Disney)
Fishers Buggies is down by Ybor City and maybe hit the Columbian restaurant . Across the Street is the awesome Restaurant Depot bring your business license . For the best cuban food try this cafe by the Stadium . La Terisita link
Tampa? Well, you could score some oxycontin, go to the beach, check out a commercialized area where people used to roll cigars by hand, get some hookers, or score some oxycontin!
The world is your oyster in Tampa.
This place is cool: http://tbauto.org/

I stopped to eat on Dale Mabry while returning from the St. Pete Grand Prix. Yep, that's where they keep the strip clubs. There's a good Moe's in the mix, too, if you have a hankering for a burrito.

Ah, yes.....Ybor City (the song)
If you're going to the clubs on Mabry, you're doing it wrong.

The hojo we're staying in is right across the street : ( oh, that tacobell is now a pizza place.
So much for booking thru travelocity
That area is a lot safer than Ybor.
We'll be at the games as well. Just got back from a pre frozen four cruise this morning, too.
There are a pair of tickets at the shereton, so I suspect tickets are easy to come by this year.

BC won and most likely will win Saturday. Scalpers were everywhere.
