    Anyone have tickets to the 500 on Valentine's Day? Jesse and I will there. I'm driving over from Gainesville on Sunday morning and he's meeting me at the speedway from Miami.

    This is my first NASCAR race and I'm really excited. Especially with the enlarged restrictor plates, it should be an awesome race. Pit passes don't hurt either ;)

    The Chevy dealers are giving away two free tickets to Daytona with a test drive. Probably not the best seats, but it shows that the race probably isn't a sell out.

    You can find decent last minute deals on Ebay. Last year I bought two 47th row Sprint Tower seats for 50% of face value. I think this year it will be even better.

    I recommend the Sprint Tower, or the Petty Tower. The higher the better. You can see the entire track, and you would have a full view of the pits and the S/F line.

    Or if you want to pay full tilt and get assured of good seats, call my friend Tim at 954.493.9141, give him my name. See what he can do for you.

    I think you will really enjoy. Can't stand the COT car, but its still probably the best show in racing.

    We already have tickets/pit passes. I'm not sure where the seats are though. I was wondering if anyone else will be going this year.

    I really hate the COT also, so I'm happy they'll eventually be changing it (for the most part) back to the old car.

    I am already at Daytona - my bus is parked right across the street from the track at turns 3 & 4 - it is back & white with some gold and I have a black Taho tow vehicle- I have 4 more rvs that are friends of mine coming today - tickets are always available on the street(especially over where I am) at face value - scalping at over face value is illegal at Daytona and they will flat ass put you in jail for it so all the tickets on the street are regular price - there is no reason to pay over before race day. I used to get seats in the tower for years but you had to pay for a whole package so we quite- now we just pick and chose which race we are going to - beware of traffic before the race. If anybody is going to be around, let me know - also let me know if you need advice
