Posted by JenP in : General, News & Events, Travel , trackbackPreparations are in full swing for February 17, 2008, the 50th running of NASCARS biggest and most prestigious race of the year, the Daytona 500. The Daytona 500, the most important race for NASCAR’s premier series, is held annually at the infamous Daytona International Speedway. NASCAR fans from all over the country come together to watch the 200-lap, 500 mile stock car race. The list of Daytona 500 winners dates back to the opening race in 1959, and included some of the most legendary racing names in NASCAR history such as Richard Petty, A.J. Foyt, Mario Andretti, and Dale Earnhardt.
The Daytona 500 had its first race in 1959, but can be traced all the way back to 1903. This was the year where racing enthusiasts decided that the smooth, hard packed sands of Ormond Beach would be the perfect place to put their souped-up cars to the test.
From there on, beach racing in the Daytona area became a marvel. One of these thrill seekers by the name of “Big Bill†France came to Daytona from Washington D.C. and announced his plans to build what is today the epic Daytona International Speedway. Four years later, the first Daytona 500 was run.
Daytona 500 opens the NASCAR season every February, a time of year when many other tracks across the country are covered in ice and snow. The Daytona 500 offers NASCAR race fans the chance to get away from their winter blues, and soak up the sun, surf, and speed that this race offers. Roughly 200,000 fans make it to the opening race an annual sell out.
With that many fans headed to the Daytona 500 you can imagine hotels will fill up very quickly. A great alternative is a timeshare. Buyatimeshare.com has many great deals on timeshares for rent.
