5 night package from £1379 per person

NASCAR’s most prestigious race kicks off the 2011 Sprint Cup Series on the fabled Daytona Speedway, culmination of a week long festival of stock car racing. 43 drivers will be on the grid to hear those magical words – ‘Gentlemen, start your engines’. 500 miles and 200 laps of bumper-to-bumper racing will keep the fans enthralled until the final lap when the light is fading. 2010 turned out to be an incredible year for team owner Chip Ganassi who won the Daytona 500 with Jamie McMurray and the Indy 500 a few months later with Dario Franchitti.

Two full days of on-track action are included in our 5 night package, with excellent front stretch reserved seats in the Weatherly Tower for the 300 mile, 120 lap Sprint Cup race on Saturday and the 500 on Sunday. We have also included Sprint FANZONE for Saturday so you can go infield and watch what’s happening in the garages.

We will fly you from London Gatwick Airport to Orlando where you spend five nights at the excellent Doubletree Resort Hotel off International Drive. Track transfers on Saturday and Sunday are included and you will be accompanied by a knowledgeable representative who will be on hand throughout your stay.

When you are not at the track you can relax in the hotel or visit some of the many theme parks in the Orlando area.

The Daytona 500 is one of the great motorsport spectacles. Join us there in 2011.
