    We had a strong turnout in Nov '07 so we're doing it again!

    Located south of St. Petersburg Beach

    3500 Pinellas Bayway S.
    Tierra Verde, FL 33715
    Park Office- 727.582.2267
    Campground Office- 727.582.2267
    SHELTER #13
    (same shelter as last time, perfect spot!)
    10:30am - ???

    Come join us for a day of cars, food, and fun!
    The focus is on SRT vehicles, but if you have friends who drive other cars (and won't cause trouble), feel free to invite them!
    Hot dogs, hamburgers, potato salad, cole slaw, and bottled water will be provided.
    $5 suggested donation or whatever you can afford, please send via paypal to:
    [email protected]
    The money I receive will go towards food, water, supplies, and RAFFLE PRIZES.
    Feel free to bring other drinks, food, and snacks that you would like to share.

    We will also try to get a volleyball game going. Bring footballs, frisbees, soccer balls, etc. Just don't hit any of our cars!
    Very important: We need one or two people to volunteer to bring a radio/CD player!

    For detailed map/directions, questions about the park, and campground info:

    More info:
    *The parking lot supporting our shelter holds 250 cars so there is plenty of room!
    *Restrooms are near shelter.
    *The park has had car events before and therefore we will NOT get kicked out as long as everyone acts responsibly.
    *Hate to post this, but alcoholic beverages are NOT permitted into the park.

    Come by yourself or bring your convoys from Orlando, Tampa, from the south, the east coast, from wherever!


    Note: In the highly unlikely event that someone decides to act in an immature manner, he or she will be asked to leave.
    Burnouts, trash talking, and any other childish behavior will NOT be tolerated. We had ZERO problems with the park ranger at the last picnic so I don't expect any this time, either.

    Hahahaha. Its hard when everyone was following me and it was daylight with a bunch of cars on the road. Only reason Amanda took off is she was tired of me driving slow lol. So Frank yelled out the exit we were getting off and she took off.

    Soon my friend... soon you will see some vid coverage. I need to update you on some of the future parts for the car.
