Default Daytona!!!!

If you haven't done it do it!

Finally made it to the Daytona Club race this year. Year after year I vowed to go but something always came up. This year I made it down there. All I can say is that it was a bucket list experience that did not disappoint.

The banking and drafting added a completely different element to racing than the other tracks I go to.

And the speeds! It's the fastest track on the schedule.

My intention was to go down there and secure a 3rd place finish in the national championship but after finishing P1 in both sprints on Saturday my transmission gave up on me a few laps into the Sunday enduro.

All in all a great experience that I will add to my annual schedule.

Enjoy the videos!

PS: these are NOT a great example on how to drive Daytona as I never got the horseshoes right. I over drove the first one and under drove the second one. Frustrating bit of track. No doubt that cost me time but there's aways next year

Nice. Must have been frustrating to have the same car pass you just before the horseshoes then hold you up (nice guy or not).
