Default bike tracks close to tampa?

My boss asked me if I knew of any bike tracks closer to tampa other than Jennings, Moroso or Sebring. I know Gainsville has a small road course, but I dont hear much about events for bikes there. is there anything closer and do they do bike events at Gainsville?

I see people racing on 19 and 54 everyday. Maybe he could try one of those? You can really build your skills that way. You know, dodging cars and FHP and what not. I'd say give it a try.

Jennings and Moroso are the 2 closes tracks. Jennings offers open trackdays for anyone to come participate. moroso, Homestead, and Daytona, you need a race lisence to get on the track,
Sebring is not a motorcycle track, they do not have the run off required for motorcycles, meaning that if you rode off you wouldnt have anywhere to go, you would hit a wall.

there are other application tracks closer, motard/go-cart track in palmetto and Ocala,
motorcross track in Dade City and Lakeland

need tires (take offs)? PM me
need a deal on a track day? PM me

disclaimer: I sell used tires (take-offs), these tires have been used at Jennings, Homestead, etc. (road courses for those that dont know) therefor these tires are more used up on the sides than in the middle,
