welcome. i just moved here a few weeks ago so im not really familiar with the area yet. i have raced my car down at speed world, its a dragstrip about 30 min away from where im located. also every sat. night there seems to be tons of cars down on international drive, down at sonics. kinda crowded though, and a lot of rice. im sure others will be a little more helpful!

You are gonna have to prioritize tolls or traffic. The best way I would think would be OBT to the East-West, the east to 50. Of course east on 50. I think you will only hit 2, maybe 3 tolls. You could go OBT to 50 but that will take you a ton of time, same with OBT - 436 - 50. You will burn up as much money on gas as you would on the tolls.

I live in Winter Springs. I take 434 to Oveido. Turn left on 426 all the way to 50. Then to the left a couple miles to the track. Traffic isn't that bad. I've been thinking of heading out there myself this Friday. It'd be great to have a mass of F-Bods running together. If anybody sees me in the Orange SS be sure to say hi. I think I'm gonna get a friend of mine to take his 99 NBM Firehawk out too. It's gonna be his first time. So if you want to be able to say you roasted a Firehawk, here's your chance.
