For over the last year, Florida Street Rodders have been enjoying the convenience of having not only one, but two Total Performance retail locations in there area. What many may not know is the convenience of these stores has also allowed us to offer products that we have not been able to in the past. Below is just a very small example of some of the items available at our Total Performance Florida store locations. For more information, call our Bunnell store at 386-437-9996 or our Ormond Beach store at 386-671-6415. A web site is also in the works specifically for these stores as well.

Camaros and Firebirds were the featured cars at the August Cruisin' Destination Daytona. (L to R) Jim Lionelli, of Ormond Beach copped the "Best Hardtop Award", with his beautiful Gray and Black Firebird. Pete Lyden of Flagler Beach picked up the "Merchant's Choice Award" with his, perfect, all original, 1968, 'big block' Camaro convertible. Mickey Lauria, of Total Performance presented the awards. Charles Hines, of Port Orange, took home the trophy for "The Best Convertible" with his deep black, 427, '67 Camaro.

Camaros were the theme car for the August Cruisin' Destination Daytona and they were given a special parking area as well as awards for Best Hardtop, Best Convertible, and the Merchants Pick.

Nearly 500 hot rods, customs, and specialty cars filled Bruce Rossmeyer's Destination Daytona for what was the largest Cruisin' Destination Daytona (CDD) ever. Every available parking spot was filled with cars from Michigan, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, and, of course, all parts of Florida.

The theme for the August edition of CDD was Camaros, and the Camaro owners were on hand to show off their beautiful creations. Awards sponsored by Diamond Back Classic Radial tires were given to the "Best Hardtop" and the "Best Convertible", while the Destination Daytona Merchants sponsored and selected the "Merchant's Pick" award.

A vast array of door prizes were given out every half hour, including: four $100.00 gift certificates from YearOne, the leading muscle car parts supplier in the country, a number of $25.00 gift certificates from Total Performance, Inc, a co-sponsor of CDD, along with gift certificates from Doc's Rod & Kustom. A large array of caps, shirts, cigars, and other merchandise from the Destination Daytona merchants was also awarded to many lucky cruisers.

As always, live music came from the main stage near the food court and the Saints and Sinners Pub, while "The Wanderer" spun everyone's favorite oldies near the Destination Daytona Specialty shops.

The monthly 'split-the-pot' set a new record and the money benefits the Flagler Humane Society.

Remember Cruisin' Destination Daytona happens the third Saturday of every month (except this October when Biketoberfest takes over Destination Daytona). The fun officially begins at 5 PM and goes until it is over. Admission is always free to spectators and participants and with good music, good food, good drinks, and good friends, a good time is guaranteed.

Destination Daytona is located at I-95 and US 1 (Exit 273) in Ormond Beach, FL. For more information call: 386-671-7103
