The tour concludes with access to the Coca-Cola Theatre and a close-up look at Trevor Bayne’s DAYTONA 500 winning car.

“The new VIP tour was developed for fans who desire a truly up-close and personal tour of the ‘World Center of Racing,’ ” said Daytona International Speedway Joie Chitwood III.  “Not only will they see the most exclusive and premier areas of the speedway, they will take a walk down memory lane at the ISC Archives and enjoy all the history of racing in Daytona Beach.”
