Tampa played host to the inaugural RubberNeck Race on December 5th. Influenced by its professional and college sports teams as well as its history as a pirate's cove, Tampa proved it had the spunk. Rubberneckers used their physical grit and mental wit taking on challenges through the streets of downtown Tampa, trendy Channelside and historic Ybor City. The rain cleared up just in time for the race and the weather held out to make it a great day for RubberNecking! Even though it was a little chilly, the racers heated up the course by solving the tricky clues, scampering around Tampa and discovering some hidden gems!
