Daytona Beach Visitors' Guide

On race day, a lot of eyes will be focused on where the rubber meets the road – literally. Daytona International Speedway reportedly spent around $20 million to repave the historic track for just the second time. The entire race surface was torn up, leveled and repaved in a process that was started after the July 5, 2010 Coke Zero 400 and finished earlier this year. A lot of time was spent making sure  track dimensions remained exactly

What is a Sprint Fan Zone Pass?
- The Sprint Fan Zone is a great addition to see more of the racetrack prior to the start of the race.  It allows you to walk the track surface and onto pit road. This is also an opportunity to take part in a Q & A session with the drivers, viewing garage windows, photo opportunities, access to the Sprint Fandeck and MORE!

Where is the best place to sit?
- The Earnhardt, Petty, or Sprint Towers are the best option for a great view of the racetrack. The Towers are located on the front stretch across from the pits. The Sprint Tower is located directly in front of the start/finish line.

What location should I pick: Orlando or Daytona Beach?
- Daytona Beach is a great option to be close by the race track and to sit ocean side when you have a moment away from the race. The Orlando area is a great, lower cost option which also places you near Disney World. Take those tips into consideration to decide what is right for you and/or your group.
