    Default Info on Miami Mile?

    Anyone have an update on the mile-marker 1 Miami Mile? Last I checked, there wad a dispute between counties and use of the air strip. I had a blast at the last one. Anyone know of an update on upcoming events?

    Great thread.

    I was just thinking about this event as well. I'd love to attend another one of these now especially with the weather being so beautiful here in Florida.

    Here are the websites: topgunrun and Mile Marker 1

    Looks like all the organizers packed up their bags and closed up shop. I had heard some rumors circulating in regard to the runway itself and the possibility of future events potentially not being able to happen anymore.

    I would be hugely disappointed if that ended up being true because quite frankly, I loved these events. It was an opportunity for me to have a designated date and location for many of my automotive friends around the country to meet up and legally take their beast of cars to the triple digits without any problems.

    Hope to hear more updates regarding these events.
    I take photos. Check it!

    Hey guys I'm doing a similar event but it's a half mile. However we will be allowing heads up racing instead of just solo runs. We are hoping to branch out to some longer runways in the future. This event is still going to be a blast though. It's about an hour south of Tallahassee, FL.

    Carrabelle Speed Festival March 12th, 2011

    WannaGOFAST.com is proud to present our first event of the New Year the Carrabelle Speed Festival. It will take place at the Carrabelle-Thompson airport in Carrabelle, FL. This event is all about speed! Test your vehicle and driving skills on an open runway. We will be doing standing HALF MILE races all day long!! The best part is that we are allowing head to head competition instead of solo runs like other airstrip events. The theme will be classic grudge match style racing. Hit speeds you only dreamed about on a ¼ mile track in a fun and safe environment!

    Come join us for what is sure to be an exciting day of speed and entertainment! We will have a live DJ spinning tracks all day long and food provided from the Pit Stop Grill!

    Our 2 sponsors for the event are TopSpeed Motorsports of Atlanta, GA and Unique Audio of Destin, FL! TopSpeed Motorsports (Top Speed Motorsports High Performance Cars Custom Modifications Go Faster) is one of the premier tuning and performance shops in the nation! Their 911 GT2 just recently won the One Lap of America in 2010 and broke the course record! They will be bringing a couple of their vehicles to take down our runway. One of them being a 1300hp Supra!!

    Unique Audio of Destin (Unique Audio - Destin, FL - Car Audio & Electronics, Marine Audio & Electronics, Home A/V, Window Tint, Wheels & Tires) is a one of a kind customization center for your car or truck! They specialize in audio, security, window tinting and custom wheels and tires. If you can dream it they can create it for you!

    *Check out our website (wannaGOFAST - Carrabelle Speed Festival - High-Speed Racing) to register. Be sure to read all of the forms and have your tech sheet filled out prior to entering the gate!

    *This event is limited to 50 cars I can’t emphasize enough that fact that you should pre-register. If you wait until the event date to register it is almost certain that the event will be sold out. For places to stay in the area click the link that says things to do and places to stay in Carrabelle (or visit Carrabelle Florida Places to Stay, Things to Do, Fishing, Real Estate and more for Carrabelle, Florida). If you need a hotel it is recommended that you book it now to make sure there’s availability!

    *Parking is limited for spectators so please carpool if possible!

    If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to call or email us.
