I personally spoke to the Manager/part owner Friday night and he said he's definitely interested in hosting a huge car show. They've put on numerous events in the past with much success and he would definitely like to try out having a car show.
Strokers Tampa is conveniently located on Hillsborough Ave in the Cody's Steakhouse plaza off of Silvermill. The plaza has a huge parking lot and there would be plenty of room for vendors as well.
Strokers is a huge pool hall / sports bar and it also has a stage for a DJ or band, and they also have a private VIP room. The food there is also very good.
If anyone is interested in having Strokers Tampa as a car show venue, please send me a PM and I will give you the contact name and phone number.
