Daytona Beach Real Estate & Community Events Blog. By Lisa C. Hill, "THE SMART CHOICE!" |
So here I go with another post that's not about real estate. But it is about my home town. Yep. I'm proud to call myself a Daytona Beach native. I'm one of the few! And this is a topic that many people can't get enough of.
But considering we're now a few days past the 2008 Daytona 500 (and Bike Week is fast approaching), this will be the last of my Daytona 500 posts... I think.
So I thought I'd provide you with a list of all the winners of the Daytona 500, since it was moved from the actual beach and A1A, to NASCAR's Daytona Speedway. I actually have a list of how much money was won by each winner, their top speeds and their cars. But since the 500 is now over, I don't want to keep dragging this out... unless you want to hear more. In that case, you'll have to indicate that in the comments =)
So here we go. 50 years of winners of the Daytona 500
