Melbourne area drag strips

That is the question, the title, as well as what would you show a New Yorker while here? Just wondering........

Whatcha got for 1/4 or 1/8 mile strips?
Good places to tour, eat, drink a little and see a band?

Supposed to be fishing tomorrow...

Bump

If I were in Melbourne, FL, I would look up Ben Donhoff Automotive in the phone book, stop by
and chat with Ben (he's a real nice guy), then take a look at the original Mopar Missile Duster.

Pictured: HemiDenny and Ben at Henderson, NC this October, Denny and Ben with their
cars and Denny sitting in the Mopar Missile Duster. This car is the same one that was in
the famous Accel Spark Plug ad (last pic)......before it was updated from a '73 to a '75-6.

Well, that sounds like a nice idea but does me no good in knowing/finding a local strip. Thanks anyways.

Well, the above is the part of your question that I was responding to.

Also, I'm sure that Mr. Donhoff could tell you where all "local" drag racing establishments
are located.

Florida Drag Strips? See list. I sent an email to a firend in Lakeland to ask him
which would be close/closest to Melbourne. If I get an answer, I will post it.
