    I'm absolutely attending east bay but when? I'm not a lucas format fan, don't mind other divisions and tracks so what's everyone's best opinion to see Florida speedweeks in all within 5 days or so? Trying to get best bang

    I think you will be really satisfied with Little Harbor. It will be our 6-7th year after leaving the hotels in Brandon. We wouldn’t thi k of staying anywhere else.
    Make sure you have your parking/gate pass with you when you leave for the races. The guard is on duty at night and you have to stop at the guard house before entering.

    Ummm, if you don't like Lucas (for whatever reason), you better just stay on the Atlantic coast side...

    There are mod/sprint/crate shows at East Bay too. But the giant crowds are there for the
    Lucas shows.

    East Bay late models have always been the main draw no matter the sanction or series. The only thing Lucas brought into it was provisionals.

    Well parking lot at beach is paid parking, so just walk there or to sunset bar & grill. Burger and fry at sunset was good, you pay little extra for view but worth it. Had breakfast yesterday at Barbara's family diner, good food reasonable price and it was a plate fill! View at condo is excellent and its quite here. Drive to & from track simple 25 min ride. Checked out manatee park and well worth couple hours, and it's free. Gonna do the fish house tomorrow as it's always busy. Think only open Thursday-Sunday? If ya like coors light I'll probably have plenty left over when book Sunday. Just let me know.

    If you go to Sunset Grille- they will validate you inside for 3 hour free parking. Tag # & phone #.
    We tried a new restaurant today on Apollo a beach Blvd. called Circles. It’s a little pricey- but excellent quality/quanity.

    If you can rent directly from owner(some will) you can save taxes/fees.
    But still cleaning fee.

    Just tell the person at the motel counter, you're an illegal immigrant and get a very special rate!!!!

    FREE!!! Hint, don't speak english and do some skin prep ahead of time.
    If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention!

    The fish house is very good. But just a heads up, everything is fried.

    Appreciate all the information. We will check out Barbara’s for breakfast. I’ve heard good things about Circles and the other main restaurant in apollo beach

    You should try Doc Fords on the bay in St Pete. Excellent seafood and the view is awesome!

    Its right beside the St Pete pier with a nice walk and shops at the end!
