My husband and I are curious as to whether or not there is a group from the Villages that travels together to attend Nascar's Daytona 500 event.

We're looking forward to going again next year and would appreciate any input!

Check AAA, they had bus trips to the race. These were better than some of the other bus trips as they left about an hour earlier and were able to actually park in the bus parking. Also, their tickers were in turn 1 which was close to the bus parking. We used one of the other bus trips, tickets in turn 4 and they arrived late ended up in the bus overflow parking (turn 2) which meant we had a 1 mile plus walk to our seats EACH way.

There is a Racing Fan Club here, they have done Daytona as well as other local races. We have a neighborhood group that goes to short tracks locally and will resume our Saturday night track visits after COVID

Are you accepting new members to the Club? If so, can you tell me how to do so?

Thanks!
