Over the break I went to the Daytona 500. The Daytona 500 is a nascar race that is in Daytona, Florida. In the racing season the Daytona 500 is the biggest race of the year. It is also the first race of the year, which makes the sport very unique. In each race there is three stages. The first two are 80 laps and the third is 60 laps. The winners of the stages get points and the winner gets points. Also, if you lead a lap you will get points. This a brand new system for points that nascar did this year.
I have been going to the Daytona 500 for five years in a row now. I always go with my grandpa and dad. We always used to go for Jeff Gordon, but he retired last year. Now me and my dad go for Chase Elliot. My Grandpa likes Chase, but he like Kasey Kane more. This year we are also trying to go a race in Alabama or Texas. The races are super fun and we hope to go again for many more years.
That sounds really fun. I wish I would have gone to the Daytona 500.
