Where's the Best Place to Watch the Daytona 500 in FFX County?

I'm looking for a bar where people regularly go to watch NASCAR races. I'm for a place where fans know the drivers and the sport.

The last place I went the bartender was more about watching golf. Who wants to sit in a bar drink beers and watch golf? That to me is as exciting as watching ice skating.

Any one of the local toothless redneck bars should be able to accomodate your needs.

I'm an executive, but I'm fine with hanging out a dive bar to watch the Daytona 500. Certainly be more refreshing than all the office drama I have to deal with during the week. But where?

Hopefully these redneck bars will also include the obligatory big boob bartender showing lots of cleavage and the drunk girls flashing everything.

Dream on. What you will find is a bar full or angry white guys who will want to fight when their favorite driver crashes out or blows up.

Try the Fairfax County Parkway between Pope's Head and Ox, folks always drive crazy there. Same thing with the Franconia Springfield Parkway between Backlick and Rolling. Those are two good places to get the racing experience. Hell, you can even join in if you want!

What's..."NASCAR"? Race cars were meant to go left AND right EVERY race...not just twice per season.

Formula 1? Those aren't cars, those are rockets with wheels attached. NASCAR uses parts a normal man can buy.

I dont know many "normal" men that can afford $50,000 cylinder heads and $2000/each tires! The term "Stock Car" is a misnomer. The only parts of those cars that are the same as the car in the showroom is maybe the hood and the trunk lid.

Why don't you secure tickets to the event.
You wouldn't want to lower your standards.
The Penthouse is quite enjoyable with a complete view and safe.

Those are different metal, different shape, and also have hood vents attached that open when the car spins around to allow the air to pass through to avoid going airborn and doing flips/rolls.

So, technically, nothing is the same.

Just git you a couple of cases of Natty Light or Busch and sit on the front porch of your trailer and hoot and holler for your "driver' ( God bless Dale Earhart)

On the other hand who the hell wants to sit in a bar and watch race cars go round and round 200 times? Your best bet is to go to southwest Virginia where the rednecks live.

Formula 1 is about as boring as racing gets. Drivers don't know shit about their cars past what the computer tells them, 2/3 of the cars don't finish on the lead lap, and passing a car is a 12 lap process. There's a reason open wheel racing is flailing in the States - the racing is crap.

Give me a bunch of rednecks in suped up moonshine wagons trading paint, hitting 200 on the straightaways, and fighting in the pits rather than a bunch of wankers sipping tea with their ferrari/mercedes/etc. team owners.
