Never raced there in my life. Not the place to play ray. Just funny everyone wants to race when you are in a fast car. Good place to fish under the bridge at nite.

However, it has come to my attention that there is frequent drag racing on the bridge and large groups of racers gather (revving engines) on the St. Pete side at Gandy Beach. I really like the complex and location but don't want to live with constant noise.

Anyone live nearby or have any experience with this? Is it every night? Every weekend?

Thanks for any info.

My daughter lives in the "Verandah's of Brighton Bay". In the back of the Grande Verandahs? It's a nice quiet, safe place to live. Convenient to everything. Good luck!

It's been about 10 years since that kind of street racing scene was active at those levels. It's nothing to worry about now.
