Daytona 500 - February 2009

Frank and I managed to get tickets and attend both the Camping World 300 and the Daytona 500 in February 13th & 14th, 2009. Although we have lived here in Florida for over 25 years, neither of us had been to the races. It was a blast. Unfortunately, rain cut the Daytona 500 short but the thrill of watching the action was still great.
