Daytona International Speedway
50th Anniversary Race!

The 2008 Nascar season includes 36 races starting with the 50th running of the Daytona 500 on Sunday, February 17th at Daytona International Speedway. The 2008 season also marks NASCAR's 50th year of stock car racing.

The Daytona International Speedway in Daytona, Florida, is probably the most well-known raceway in the United States. Built on a swamp in the 1950’s, this monster-of-a racetrack seats 168,000, and every seat is needed. The Daytona 500 race in February starts off the auto-racing season for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. The Daytona 500 race in 2008 will mark the 50th anniversary of this famous race, and will still be the culmination of Speed weeks. View the 2008 NASCAR schedule and Daytona Speedway betting odds.

Daytona is also the location of NASCAR headquarters. The track at Daytona Speedway is 2.5 miles long and is a tri-oval super speedway. The Sprint Cup series racers will be back for the July Daytona race, the Pepsi 400.

NASCAR Nationwide Series fans can check out their favorite stock car racers here in February for the Orbitz 300 and in July for the Winn Dixie 250 presented by PepsiCo. Also in February, the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series will host the Chevy Silverado HD 250.

The Great American Race returns to Daytona International Speedway for another heart-pounding, edge of your seat, 500 miles of racing! Don't miss your chance to bet on the DAYTONA 500.

The 2007 Daytona 500 came down to a green-white-checkers finish. Mark Martin was in the lead with Kyle Busch, Greg Biffle, David Gilliland and Elliott Sadler in line behind him.

Kevin Harvick got a run on the outside. There was a huge wreck coming off turn four in the last lap. Mark Martin was in the lead at that moment but NASCAR decided not to throw the yellow. Kevin Harvick beat Mark back to the line by just a nose.

DAYTONA 500 HISTORY
The Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway is NASCAR's premier race and was established by NASCAR in 1959 at the newly opened Daytona International Raceway in Daytona, FL. The 2.5-mile banked track at Daytona, which has permanent seating for about 90,000 spectators, was built near the site of a Daytona beach course that had been used for stock car racing in the 1930s.

The annual NASCAR race at Daytona had previously been staged on a 4.1-mile beach and road course in the area. The 2001 Daytona 500 was the darkest day in NASCAR history as Dale Earnhardt was taken from NASCAR during an ill fated accident at the end of the race. In 2004, Daytona International Speedway broke ground on a multi-million, multi-faceted infield renovation project which includes a new tunnel located in Turn 1 that will accommodate team transport vehicles and guest's specialty vehicles.
