I went to the 500 on Sunday. Haven't been since Dale Jarrett won his first race for Yates, so it had been a long time. I don't care for all the crashing. I attended my first NASCAR race at Charlotte in 1984. Although they have not been able to keep all the fans that they had during the boom of the 90's when they were the flavor of the day, the crowds are bigger than they were in the days of the traitor flag. Daytona was not real nice when I went before, it is real nice now. I liked the racing at Ocala better, but was impressed with what I saw at Daytona. The facility was real nice.
