500 2010...14th February 2010 - Motorsport main menu - 0845 003 2213
5 night package from £1209 per person NASCAR drivers do it on ovals - and on the occasional road course – 36 times a year on 22 different tracks. From the fast and furious half mile ovals to the longer 2.5 mile ovals the super V8 cars, specially built to absorb bumping, have a different set up for every track. Grids are enormous with over 40 Fords, Toyotas, Dodges and Chevrolets competing at each event. It’s a family affair – the NASCAR dynasty’s are legendary but there’s also a smattering of drivers more well known to the European race fans. In the US they don’t believe in saving the best ‘til last. The season always starts with the Big One at the Daytona International Speedway and it’s a week-long festival of motor sport with all the razzmatazz you could possibly imagine. Two full days of on-track action is included in our 5 and 7 night holidays. Staying in Orlando – just an hour down the road from Daytona – you will have time to visit your favourite theme park attractions as well as experience auto racing American-style! Your included two day grandstand seat is in the Weatherly Tower on the front stretch and we have also included the infield Sprint FANZONE™ for Saturday so you can see what’s happening in the garages. Florida is a year round holiday playground and combined with one of the greatest motor sport spectacles of the year it’s a must for any race fan.
