    Speed. I am speed. One winner, 42 losers.
    This review is just for the track and its facilities. I was greatly impressed with everything. The midway with vendors still had some free product demos to be found. The parking off site and shuttle in were seamless. With thousands in attendance never was there a long line for entrance, food, or bathrooms. Food was priced reasonably. The bathrooms were clean. Definitively a place to watch the great american race.

    Love the Rolex 24hrs
    Attended the IMSA Roar and the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona. Great experience, especially staying at the track for the entire 24 hours of the race. Walking around at night trying different viewing locations was fantastic.

    Awesome visit.
    What a breathtaking experience to visit this place. The entrance is $30 p.p. if a group is travelling or just 2 people it is $26 p.p. Free parking. We visited this place the day before the race, so we got to see some cars practicing. The trolley tour was awesome. Free parking.

    A eye opening visit to the race track.
    It was our first time at the race track. We took the tour. It was amazing. We got to see so much. The views from the top rows of seats is awesome. The museum is very good also. We really enjoyed the visit.

    Camping at Daytona Speedway during Scout Days
    Our Cub Scout Pack had a great time camping inside the race track during Scout Days. Such a cool event with scouts from all over the country participating. Scouts got to sign their name on the finish line and walk the race track, they had a movie night, tram tour of the facility and driver meet and greet with tour of the garages.

    Rockville was Epic. This Venue was set up perfectly with PLENTY of water sprinklers, FREE hydration stations. There was plenty of food stands bathrooms well kept. Probably the cleanest concert festival experience I’ve ever had. Plenty of space for breathing room. Loved it and will return!

    Daytona International Speedway!
    Daytona International Speedway has always been on my list to visit. Having visited Florida numerous times, for some reason we never made it down to Daytona Speedway before. On this trip I visited with a friend who like me has a larger than normal interest in cars :-) We booked the tour easily in the reception area of the Speedway next to the museum. Our tour guide was very knowledgable and told us he worked at the speedway since he was a young boy (he was now in his 60´s). He told us about many really cool things he experienced over the years. On our visit there was no track activity. Some people might find that dissapointing, but for me it actually suited. It enabled us to actually walk on the track and sign the finish line. We were also allowed on the podium with the number 1, 2 and 3 position. All in all a very amazing experience. I always tip the tour guide after every tour I do in the United States, however this tour guide didnt take it. He said ¨your interest in our speedway is enough for me¨Very nice of him of course, but still I felt a bit ¨wrong¨. Anyway, very nice of him. After the tour we visited the museum. This is an experience in its own. There is lots of cars on display and lots of memorabilia. For someone like me that likes memorabilia in particular this was an amazing visit.

    Visit the Museum. (Not sure that a tour of the track is worth it unless you are a big fan)
    Daytona Beach (the actual hard sand beach) was famous for motor car racing long before today's race track was built. I went to see the site... and visit the museum attached to the race complex. Museum has many artifacts and stories. I enjoyed them all.

    Rolex 24 experience
    The 4 day pass we got was great. 4 races 4 days. The racing was amazing. Watrhing the mclaren lead the 24 hours of daytona I consider to be the greatest moments of my life. That all changed when the car broke while in the lead and made me sad. But other than that the seats were good they had restarants inside the grandstands and overall I want to go back.

We attended the Daytona 500 and overall, it was a very memorable day. But super frustrating. Now we certainly understand the weather couldn’t be controlled, and we understand that security was heightened because of the president being there. What we were most disappointed by was that because we had Fan Zone tickets, we were told to take a shuttle to the infield, then put in a line for an hour, then when we could finally see the end of the line, we were put in another line. After 2.5 hours in line, we made it into the Fan Zone only to find out that the drivers were all done with their autograph sessions, the whole reason we spent an extra $99 per person to get in there. A total waste. And we were there very early. Then, we went across the track to go to our seats only to find out that we could have accessed the Fan Zone that way and since we were there early, it would have taken only a few minutes. We were given terrible information multiple times by track employees who should have known better. We really should get that money back. And we won’t even talk about how it took another 1.5 hours to get out of Lot 7. They needed parking attendants. Half our party came back the next day and had a fantastic time. Might never come back but managed to redeem this visit with Monday’s race.

I went to my first Daytona 500 when it was still on the beach. Who would have ever imagined the possibility of a facility like it has become. The stands are awesome in size and internal facilities. There must have been 50 or more food vendors and restaurants on the grounds, plus another 50 serving various drinks, appetizers, you name it. Beginning on Thursday before the Rolex 24, wandering the garages, watching the teams at work, even sitting in an occasional car, provide a photographers delight. Moving around the stands, the infield stands, provide a number of perfect places to view the action. The vehicle displays, racing merchandise, and widely available benches to rest are great. The ADA service is superb, though admittedly, in a venue as large as this, there is still a lot of walking involved unless patience is one of your virtues. On top of that, the 4 day experience of the Rolex has to be the best value in motor sports. Where else can you spend 4 days watching racing and practice action for less than $150 including parking. This should be a bucket list item for every automotive fan.

The speedway has reopened for tours. You must get your tickets onsite for the basic tour but you can order VIP tickets online in advance. The basic tours sell out fast!! We arrived by 9:30 and the earliest tour we could get was 11:30. By 10:00 tours for the entire day were sold out so I strongly suggest going early. There is a decent museum you can visit while you wait and admission is free with the purchase of a tour ticket. You can also get a variety of souvenirs at the gift shop. The tour takes you through the tunnel to the track where you see pit row, cars running on the track, the lake, campground and much more. During a stop you get to check out the grandstand seats where you get a great view of the track and all that is happening there. This tour is a must do for racing fans.

Attended the Rolex 24 in 2015 and it was a great experience so we decided to return
For the 2020 event. We won’t be back. We bought the $125 4 day pass that included a hat. We arrived at the track at about 5:00 Friday night to pick up our tickets at Will Call. We attempted to park at the west end of the track and they wanted $25.00 for parking so we risked parking across the street in the shopping area. We were able to pick up our tickets at the main ticket area, but they did not keep hats there, which meant we had to go outside the track and walk to the will call booth at the east end of the track, which was about a mile away. Saturday, we paid $50.00 to park. The track itself is amazing and well set up. The race is fun, but the cost of parking is outrageous when we purchased $375.00 of tickets. This will be the last visit for us.

We were able to arrive an hour before the office opened and snag some standard tour tickets for the family (2 adults and 2 children *under 6*). We really enjoyed the tour. My son is really into race cars and her was very engaged in the tour and the stops we made as we enjoyed the tour. The information was very informative. We were able to hit several different points of the track and the media center. The museum at the end of the tour was great and the kids loved it. This was a great experience and I would absolutely recommend seeing this attraction.

First visit to FL we did the tour with two young children. Absolutely worth it. Our 9 year old is really into racing. We visited FL again in perfect timing for the Coke Zero 400 race. First, the seats were section 111 row 8. The section was perfect right after turn 4 and two of the wrecks happened right in front of us because that is such a fast important turn. If the seats were available I would have gone higher than row 8 to see across the field to the other side. Sound decibels are very high so being ear protection. Most importantly I had read reviews recommending the radio scanner for kids. My son was able to listen to his favorite racer Joey Logano talk through the entire race and it also gave him good ear protection. I assumed I would rent on site the day of the race. Rent ahead of time! A few days before the race a representative from the track called me to upsell some of the packages etc. He asked me if I had any questions and I asked where to get the scanner. He said I could prepay $60 with him or $80 on-site. I reserved with him and I am so glad I did! They sold out of scanners! Only those with reservations could get one! So thankful that man called. My NASCAR angel. I would have had a very disappointed little boy. He had an amazing time and a great experience.

Accompanied my husband for the all access tour, and although I’m not overly into nascar it was still a neat experience. It was cool to walk on the track and also stand in victory lane, see the garages, etc. My husband also really enjoyed seeing the media room and going up into the stands too. Whole tour took about 2 hours in total, about an hour and a half spent on the tram which is also narrated by our tour guide who was very informative and funny. Price is good value and if you want a cool little photo package to add on it’s only $5 extra per ticket. Worthwhile if your in the area looking for something to do. Daytona Beach is only about 5 min down the road from there as well.

Took a side trip on our way to Orlando. Where not disappointed.. As big NASCAR fans it was Awesome got to go into the stands drive into the Infield and where able to snap a Photo on Victory lane Ticket price includes the hall of fame museum .where able to book tickets as we where driving on our way through. Did not get to go on track as they where doing the racing experience. Which was good and bad got to see cars race by and got some cool pictures but would have loved to get on the track you are in a open tram and only thing they cancel for is Lighting so rain or shine they go. Our driver was Awesome . Race fan or not would highly recommend

We came to the Duel evening races Daytona International Speedway is an exciting way to spend about 3 watching 43 high performance cars traveling at 200 mile an hour circling the track Thursday Friday and Saturday are usually less busy and not so crowded as Sunday. The totally redone seating and bathrooms are great. The Cons Parking is at a premium. There is free parking along some of the roads during the races but be prepared to walk over a mile or more to get to the track. If you’ve never been to a race you may enjoy it.

I’m going to be honest, I had low expectations for this one, thought when the tour was so affordable it would be a 20 min walk around of some of the basics. I was entirely wrong. This tour was an hour on one of the trams, visiting and stopping at the places around and on the track. Was awesome to be allowed on the track and into some of the garages and the in field. This engaging tour was followed up by a free trip to the museum, as a non museum person myself I thought I’d skip this one but ended up getting sucked in by the exhibits and ended up spending almost another hour in there as well. Definitely worth the trip. Hope I’ll be back to see a race there soon!
