If anyone is attending, it would be an honor to share a beer in the FanZone and extend some Florida hospitality.

I envy you...I wish I could go, but it's all the way across the country

Have fun! And I wonder how these COTs will handle Daytona in a 43 car draft...

Thanks, we are 62 rows up at the end of turn two, if they are going to have trouble that's where it's going to happen. Could be an interesting day, LOL.

Won't be going to Daytona, but will be going to the Indy 500. My first time going to a "big" race.

Hope there's great weather and racing for both of us!!

Very cool, so far the forecast is 72 and sunny. Hopefully that holds out. Last year was miserable cold, well at least for a Florida boy it was.

Cold for a Florida boy is warm for this Michigan boy! Up here, we haven't had sun all month, and it's going to be a lovely 12* Sunday!

Daytona 500

If you get a chance, theres a go-kart track right across the street that has a mini 500 track and the karts they have really move. I lived in Daytona for 10 yrs. and never went to a race. Of course I was a teenager so I had other things on my mind, but we lived about 10 miles from the track in Ormond Beach, and it was like you right there. It was loud,and tons of people. So we would take out the cabin cruiser and head down the Halifax river to get away from the noise and all the people. I kick myself all the time for not experiencing THE DAYTONA 500 ! Go # 20 fellow Hoosier !
