his past weekend, MidFlorida Cars & Grub celebrated its 2nd anniversary in style—bringing two full days of high-octane energy, stunning vehicles, and community spirit to the Elev8 Fun complex in Sanford. As one of Central Florida’s fastest-growing car show series, this milestone weekend delivered on every front.
Two Days, One Big Celebration
Friday Night kicked things off with an open-style meet filled with vibrant lighting, custom builds, live DJ vibes, local food vendors, raffles, and chill hangs.
Saturday turned up the dial with a fully judged car, truck, Jeep, and bike show, plus wild activities like a burnout trailer, dyno runs, wheelie machine, and a crowd-favorite dunk tank supporting a local cancer charity.
🔥 Show Highlights
Bike dyno testing and the wheelie machine challenge gave spectators a chance to test their skills or just enjoy the thrill.
The show field featured everything from bagged street builds and lifted trucks to slammed imports and retro muscle, all under one roof—or rather, one open sky.
📸 Steel & Style Behind the Lens
Our team was on site for both days capturing the action. From engine bay closeups to night-lit stances and daytime burnouts, the photo coverage speaks for itself. Expect full galleries to drop this week over at steelandstylecarmag.com. You don’t want to miss these builds.
💬 Community Driven
One attendee summed it up best:
“When life knocks you down, you get back up and join your car buddies at MidFlorida Cars & Grub.”
And that’s exactly the vibe. From the showrunners to the builders to the families walking through vendor booths—it was about connection, creativity, and community.
🍔 Food, Fun & Family Atmosphere
The Elev8 Fun location added a whole other level of entertainment with indoor go-karts, bowling, laser tag, and an arcade for all ages. Paired with on-site food trucks and small businesses, the atmosphere was part car show, part block party.
🔭 What’s Next?
MidFlorida Cars & Grub will be back with more monthly meets already on the calendar. Each one grows the scene and welcomes every style—from track builds to daily drivers. Don’t just watch—bring your ride, bring your crew, and be part of the movement.
