I will check it out. Distance racing sounds like it would be a blast.

Distance racing in florida (and really anywhere on the gulf too) can be very exciting when the weather gets wild (which is every afternoon in warm months)... -

we have daily hurricanes! jk but yes, on the gulf side (tampa area) we usually get thunderstorms that start around 4 pm. they start inland when the eastern sea breeze and western collide and then march back to sea.
but with all the heat and humidity - they can happen at any time of day and they can get very serious quickly. I have been caught in a bunch of lightning storms (no fun with a 30' mast) and been in 40+knot wind.
you feel VERY alive when you survive them - but i still would prefer to avoid them -
