If you live in the Southeast, you probably already know about this legendary show. With each passing year, however, the reputation of Slamfest grows as more and more drivers add this weekend party to their list of mandatory events. Held during the first week of October, when the Florida weather is neither too hot to enjoy the outdoors nor too cold for the traditional bikini competition, Slamfest is a late-season show that everyone looks forward to all year long.
The Florida State Fairgrounds has been a favorite location for the past decade, thanks to its spacious facilities, indoors and out. The Mini Madness club members, thanks to years of experience, expedite all of the details from welcome aboard to send off, ensuring the primary emphasis is always on fun. Drive-through judging speeds up the process, allowing you to enjoy your day sooner. And, with almost 1,400 vehicles in attendance, there was a lot to see.
