Yea Florida is like Texas in the aspect you spend almost a day crossing it if you start in the keys to its tip of the panhandle

I think anyone that had driven in the panhandle has gone through that. Lol. It's like the bremuda triangle. I had to pull over under an overpass. Jewel about shit herself from the thunder. Lol

When I find out if I can even go in December then I will discuss with my dad the possibility of towing the Camaro there. If not it might be another rental or I might just tape the heck out of the car.

Worst I have been through was a storm on the Turnpike on my back from Miami. I couldn't even see the windshield wipers in front of me and was hydro planing at basically every stop.

That happens in Houston too, but only in May, no need to worry...

I have been two fest number 1 and fest number 4. For the first I had my car and for number 4 I didn't. I thought it was gonna be worse not having my car but really it was fine and don't regret my decision on not bringing it for the most part. I would have spent so much time washing it I would have lost valuable fest time
