Justin’s Daytona NASCAR Tour Notes:

This is the only restrictor plate night race on the NASCAR schedule, and it’s amazing to see these NASCAR Cup Series cars racing under the lights here in Daytona Beach.

The travel time from the hotel to Daytona International Speedway is approximately 40 min via luxury motor coach, even in race traffic.  We stay on the north side of Orlando, so our guests may take advantage of flights into either Orlando International Airport (MCO) – OR – Sanford International Airport (SFB). Sanford is usually a little less busy and easier in terms of traffic than Orlando International Airport.

Of course Daytona is one of my favorite race tracks.  History has been made here, and every race fan should visit this track at least once.  In November 2010, Daytona is underwent a repaving project which made the 2.5-mile tri-oval a better surface to race.

On race weekends, our charter buses park close to the location of our seats on the front stretch.  For race fans, there generally isn’t more than a 10-minute walk required to get from one spot to another at Daytona.  The grounds are pretty flat and easy to navigate.

Weather during the August race weekend in Daytona is usually warm with a high in the 90s and lows in the 70s.

Fans get close to the action at Daytona International Speedway in the fan-friendly Sprint Fan Zone. Race fans watch car inspections, get a view of race team garages and pay tribute to the tracks’ greatest drivers in the Goodyear Legends of Daytona exhibit.  The Fan Zone pre-race pass allows fans to walk across the track surface, over the grassy Tri-Oval area and onto pit road to be a part of pre-race driver introductions.  Fan Zone passes are included with all RaceAway Hospitality race weekend vacation packages for the Daytona 500 and are available with our August Daytona package.
