NMS Adds DAYTONA to the Calendar!



For the first time, NMS will be driving on track at the famous Daytona International Speedway. Well, it's not quite NASCAR, or the famous Rolex 24 Hour race, but we will be driving on the ROVAL course at a Track Night in America (TNiA) event. With the TNiA  format, you get three driving sessions during a weekday, so it's perfect for drivers that like to skip work. Or drivers that don't work. Whatever!

NMS visited the track in January to watch the 24 Hour race, so we know some important information to help us navigate the course:

 1: It's in Florida! Pretty sure that is south of South Carolina and Georgia. 

2: It will be hot. 

3: The track uses a bunch of the big steep banking, but also uses the infield twisty bit, which all adds up to 3.56 miles per lap. 

4: If Brian doesn't go, I can set the internal NMS TRACK RECORD AT DAYTONA! That would be fun, because he's faster than me at every track we've both driven!

5: There is a Buc-ees at the next exit!

6: It's not a race, there's no prize money, so we'll be strictly limited to driving just to be HAVING FUN!

Look for a report from Daytona late in June.
