DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Race fans visiting Daytona 500 Experience during the months of November and December will be able to enjoy the high-energy racing thrills of the 60,000-square foot attraction as well as help give back to the community.
Daytona 500 Experience, “The Official Attraction of NASCAR,” will donate $4 from every attraction admission purchased to the United Way of Volusia-Flagler Counties.
“United Way of Volusia-Flagler Counties touches so many people in our community,” Daytona 500 Experience General Manager Kim Isemann said. “We’re proud to be able to do this donation to a great organization and hope race fans will be able to come out and enjoy the attraction and help the United Way at the same time.”
Daytona 500 Experience is an interactive motorsports attraction designed to appeal to both hard-core race fans and casual observers. Wall-to-wall activities, challenging thrills and one-of-a-kind sights include the Coca-Cola 3D IMAX Theatre, the 16-Second Pit Stop Challenge, three different racing simulators, the winning Daytona 500 car of Matt Kenseth and daily track tours.
In addition, the attraction is home to the exclusive Tribute To The King exhibit through Dec. 31. From race-winning Richard Petty cars to the driver’s suit that Petty used to win his historic 200th and final NASCAR race at Daytona, race fans will be able to view priceless artifacts documenting a historic racing career.
All of the cars and mementos are on loan from the Petty Museum in Level Cross, N.C.
