the only really rough day at LOTO is Saturday, but if you run before 11 am and after 5 pm, you will be fine.
There is nothing that matches LOTO for the places to go, hardware to see and lifestyle of the midwest.
But then again, I am prejudiced!

Question.....if you were to pick one to go to with a 30 Daytona which would you choose? Would fl be too rough for the 30? About the same distance to either from home. We've never been to one so we were hoping to get the full experience.
I'm thinking about taking the boat to one of them and doing the PR. But I'd also like to have the best chance of selling it while I'm there for WAY less than what I'm asking for it just so I don't have to drag it back to Texas.
What do you guys think?

Emerald Coast is run mostly in protected waters. It is as flat as you can get. Beautiful blue/green water. 2 or 3 days of salt water aren't going to hurt any boat. As far as Poker stops and fun parties you will not beat this event.
And Poker Run 388, here you go again. Commenting on something you know nothing about! You mean if you brought your Dads Eliminator to Florida....
LOTO and Emerald Coast are awesome events. I agree if you could do both that would be the best!
Good Luck with your decision.
More cats and fast boats in Florida than any Poker Run I have seen. Key West is obviously the biggest.
Take Care...

Im with Ya Hawaiian. I think your 30 is a perfect size lake boat for LOTO. I can't picture myself spending all that money for an eliminator, skater, mti etc... and launching it in the salt water and ruining my trailer, etc etc.... I'm too picky about my belongings lol. There's plenty of fresh water runs throughout the year, the salt's not for me..!
Have fun at LOTO, if you go..!!!!
