Haven't been for a couple of years, but if it is the same and you're going to Belaire Plaza (across from the LaPlaya hotel), get there early as it gets full quick. Plus you have to deal with your everyday plaza shoppers. For a while there it was so bad that the police wouldn't let you in there, they had it blocked off and traffic was diverted. Merchants use to complain that all the rodders were parking, not spending any money, and scaring off their regular customers.

That was the reason why the Daytona Beach Street Rods, relocated the host hotel and also started having after hour events at the Speedway. They tried to get people away from Belaire Plaza. Didn't really work out the way they wanted it, though.

Hopefully it has changed and won't be too bad. Hope you all have a great time, I will surely be thinking about the fact that I will be missing it.
