I'm flying down on Thursday. Will miss the Duals but I'll be there for the 500. Can't wait to see Robby show NASCAR the aggressive driving they're wanting to see at Daytona this year!
My daughter and her fiance will be there. They're not big Robby fans however, but I'm going to pester them to try and find me some new RGM/Monster/Daytona gear.
Since announcement of the Monster theme, we have been actively debating whether or not drive there. It is fun to watch Robby drive in person and we worry we won't see the car on TV, unless of course it is in the front (yay) or wrecked... We have to make our final decision tomorrow. With the cold weather we have been having here in the south, we are a little concerned about freezing in our tent, but we are tough! Where will everyone be staying? Last time we went (July 2008) we stayed at the Speedweeks campground.
During the Rolex 24 broadcast, they plugged a new "party patio" on the backstretch. It's actually where they removed seats from a grandstand. I wonder how that will work out?
