Thread: Turkey Rod Run in Daytona

We have discussed it, but nothing definite. It's a long ways from here.

Another thought is that we could meet right at that shopping center and park in one area together. (wish I could remember the name of the shopping center

Don, you talking about Bel Aire Plaza??? Across from the old La Playa hotel?


Unfortunately not this year. Well be at the NSRA Southeast Nats next weekend (10/12 - 10/14) but can't do both this year. Which is unfortunate because I had registered last year then broke my shoulder and couldn't go. Guess I will have to wait until 2008 to get back.

There is nice restaurant on South Atlantic just below the Orange Street bridge on the right side. Can not remember name (man's first name) good size and very good food. Plus close to bridge for easy access to raceway,

Yep Bob, that's the plaza. One of the things we will have to look at will be availablility of parking (safe parking) for our cars while in a restaurant or whatever. My thoughts are that maybe Friday night would be the best night? Probably most of us will be there for that night, and we all have to grab a bite to eat sometime,so maybe we can kill two birds with one stone.

I'm up for anything the group decides though..........parking lot, restaurant, etc.
We just need a place where we can all get a chance to finally meet each other and talk a little.

The restaurant that I couldn't remember before was Steve's Famous Diner at 1620 South A1A. Fairly good size parking area, food used to be good and probably still is and not expensive, and good portions. They serve B-L-D

We used to stay at a ocean front hotel a couple of blocks south of there. Other than the Olive Garden which is a couple of blocks North of the BelAire Plaza, I used to enjoy going to Steve's. Bad thing is that they are usually always busy, but can usually get a table in a few minutes.

Damn, just thinking about it makes me want to go.

Bob, you KNOW you really want to go to TURKEY RUN. What could be better than Daytona Beach in late November??

Hey, I looked up Steves Famous Restaurant, and called them. They say they do not take reservations, are open til 9 PM during the week, have primarily Greek cuisine, but also everything else too, and showing up with a party of 10, 20, or whatever is not a problem. Here is their website:

We'll see how things shake out as the date gets closer, but this is certainly one good suggestion. Thanks for telling us about this place.

YOU KNOW YOU REALLY WANT TO GO TO DAYTONA !!!
