Default Daytona speedway this past saturday

Just a couple pics for the cyber grey vette fans





I give blood there several times a year, finally remembered to bring my camera, to get some pics with not much traffic around.

Thanks, yea, she will turn 36k on the odometer this week.

I remembered I had one more pic, after giving blood, I had to get some food and beverages in me. Hooters is just across from the track

Great car, great racetrack. Everyone should see the Daytona 500 at least once in their life, if they follow NASCAR. Do the Sprint Tower if you can.

The Rolex 24 is fun too, if you like to be able to come and go as you wish, see the day stuff, then the night stuff, etc. You are also able to go most everywhere to see different things too, like the pits, get on top of the buildings to see the entire track better, etc.

I was just at the track this July for the track tour.

Went to Hooters, too. Didn't think to have the girls pose with the car, though. Wife probably wouldn't have thought too much of it. She goes to Hooters for the wings. I like the thighs.

I forgot about the Turkey Rod Run, that is my favorite event there!

For anyone that wants to see virtually every type of drivable 4 wheel vehicle, you stand a good chance to see it Thanksgiving week inside the Daytona 500 speedway. Google Turkey Rod Run, and it should have the details.

There are rows and rows of vehicles of every make and style (many custom), and the past 2 years I've took a whole day to walk probably 10 miles looking at them. You can even put your vette there for a fee, and many do.

Then, all around Daytona, you will see many more nice rides that week cruising.

Yes you said it and then some. I've been going the last two years and each year they average about 6-7 thousand show cars, and yes my Z is in that mix. It really is a car show/event on massive amounts of steroids. Where else can you see 6,7,& 8 second cars drive legally up & down the blvd?

I'll be up there on turkey day probably eating my thanksgiving dinner at buffalo wild wings and watching football.

Good luck trying to find me in that sea of cars, but I can tell you that I always park on pavement.
