>From Tampa, you should take I-4 (Interstate 4) east towards Orlando, but just 
before you reach Orlando, take the 528 east towards I-95.  Don't get on I-95, 
but cross it towards the little island where KSC is.  Approx 4 hrs.

>From Miami, take I-95 north until you get to 528, then it's a few minutes east 
to KSC.  Also approx 4 hrs, during non-traffic times.  I-95 crosses many 
decent-sized cities (Miami thru Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, Palm Beach, and 
more), so plan your trip to NOT be there during morning or afternoon rush 
hours.

As an alternative to the I-95 route from Miami, I would take the Turnpike 
north up to the Fort-Pierce / Port-St.-Lucie exit, then switch over to I-95 
and continue north from there there.  (The Turnpike and I-95 are somewhat 
parallel for most of this distance, but are closest near the this exit, and 
split up after that).  You'll be out of the Miami, Ft-Lauderdale, West Palm 
Beach traffic by this point, but it'll cost you some $ in tolls on the 
Turnpike.  Haven't done this in some time, so not sure, but I expect maybe 
$10-$12 ... don't hold me to that.

Email me offline ("neil" at the same domain as this email) if you need more 
details, since I might miss your emails on the piclist.

Cheers,
