Daytona 200

Felt like ice in the stands 40s on thursday and maybe 50 on friday. I was surprised to see that they use tire warmers, but the past racers I was travelling with told me its not unusual.

I encountered the same issue, It just did not record, so by the time I tuned in they were already on lap 14....

Thanks maybe speed wil re-run it, but its so long.

I wonder if they use normal road racing warmers or if they have their own special size since they run 18" rims not 17" like sport bikes.

Chickenhawk shows 19" dirt track warmers on their site.


Didn't realize how rough the track gets. My only exposure to flat track prior was running an mx bike at the local county fairs in the 80s so I couldn't compare.
