Central Florida Robitcs Social Event!!

1083 is inviting all Central Florida teams to the "Crash a Rama" this Friday (June 3rd) at the Orlando Speed Way in Bithlo.

Cost is $20, gates open at 6:00pm.

This even is open to all teams - and is a lot of fun. This is the last one they are having for a while (at least that is what their website says).

Questions? - Email Nathan Pell

Thanks!

Re: Central Florida Robitcs Social Event!!

I already have plans to go with my father and some of his friends.

To everyone in the Central Florida area that hasn't gone: This is one of the most fun (and most redneck event) you can ever go to.

If they do it like previous years, there are the following (and then some surprises):
- Figure 8 School-bus races
- Boat-towing oval race demolition derby (while racing in an oval, racers destroy the boats in tow like a derby, but still is a race to the finish)
- Trailer-home towing oval race demolition derby
- Demolition derby
- Stock car racing
- Etc.

Every year they tend to include some really cool "surprises". A few years ago they had a truck with a 100+ ft flame thrower shooting out the back of it. Another year they had 2 School buses standing vertically with explosives in them... and another School bus ram into them at the bottom with them crashing down on top and exploding.

Very, very interesting once-in-a-lifetime experience. It's a blast for everybody. Definitly come check it out.

It's very easy to get to. It's on SR-50 just west of where 520 and 50 intersect, not more than a mile. Coming from the West, I'd say it's about 10 miles East of where Alafaya and SR-50 intersect.

Re: Central Florida Robitcs Social Event!!

It has a giant sign that says SPEEDWORLD...there may or may not be a school bus with a big racing wing on the back in front. Im sure there will be cars going there too.

Party at Mike's trailer afterward. I'll bring the pork rinds.

Or maybe at Nathan's - I bet he's one of them uppity people with a doublewide. Probably drinks beer out of a glass.

FYI, I had to make a change in plans. I didn't think about it when I saw the date originally, but tommorow's my mom's birthday. So, I'll be missing this year unfortunatly. Have fun everyone!
