Looking for something extra to do while in Daytona for Speedweeks? Here are a few reasons why you'll want to attend the annual Circle Track Racing Expo:
* Autograph sessions with many top drivers from the NASCAR Winston Cup Series, Busch Series and Craftsman Truck Series.
* A pit crew competition with $10,000 at stake for the winner.
* Interactive racing games, plus radio-controlled racing.
* Racing collectibles and other merchandise.
* The hottest racing products the market has to offer.
That's just part of what's in store at the expo, scheduled for February 13-15, at the Ocean Center on the beach at Daytona.
The Circle Track Racing Expo is a must-see event for the die-hard racer, but there's plenty in store for fans of the sport compliments of the Stock Car Racing FanFest. It's a great opportunity to get up close and personal with the stars and cars of racing.
You don't have to be a shade-tree mechanic to enjoy the Clevite Engine Builder's Challenge, where real NASCAR tuners assemble an engine and start it in less than half an hour, racing for bragging rights and a $20,000 cash prize.
For the serious racer, a pair of engines will be given away during the three-day show. In addition, check out the latest parts and get your technical questions answered by some of the many manufacturers who will be on hand. You may just walk away with a hot new setup for your machine.
New products garner much of the attention at the expo. The editors of Circle Track and Stock Car Racing consider the new pieces and award the winners.
Located just a few miles from the racetrack and right across the street from the World's Most Famous Beach, the Circle Track Racing Expo is right in the heart of the action.
