Steve’s take
Big Daddy Don Garlits' drag racing museum sits right off I-75 and it is way cooler than you'd expect. Two buildings full of cars that went 300mph, plus a vintage car collection that'll make your dad reflexively reach for his wallet. The kids will love the noise videos and the sheer absurdity of the vehicles. Even your spouse will admit this was a good stop — eventually.
