My husband and I weren't very impressed. Would only recommend if you are a huge nascar fan. We went and there was nobody there to operate any of the attractions and the movie was already over so the only thing we really got to do was tour the race track. more

My husband and I had tickets to several race days for the Daytona 500. It was a really nice experience since it was our first time going. I would suggest that for those who do no like loud noises to buy some inexpensive ear plugs as they really help. You can definitely still hear the cars as they whiz by... more

I had a great time at the Daytona 500 Nascar race on July 4th. We went to the beach during the day and attended the race at night. While it was hot during the day, at night there was a cool breeze blowing from the ocean onto the race track. The race was exciting as well as the fireworks show... more

I always wanted to see how the Daytona 500 speedway looked liked up close and personal. This has answer my prayers as you can be on the track and get the tour of victory lane and the team garages and more. Very educating and very good picture taking opportunities. Something to brag about to your friends. The museum is not... more

I absolutely loved my visit to the Daytona 500 experience. There is so much to see and do there. We had a great tour guide, named Dale, who was both entertaining and very informative. The Imax movie was fun and entertaining. The exhibits were great and a blast from the past, with both pictures of the early days of racing... more

After shelling out 71 dollars for 2 adults and one child, I was greatly disappointed. A few cars on display, a few trophies and a gift shop is all you get. The video game section for the kids was terrible, old games, etc. There was one other simulator game there that looked fun, but it was for an extra cost.... more

Spent a few hour at Daytona Experience in Daytona Beach, FL. We loved every minute of it. Very reasonable price as well. We enjoyed the track tour, didnt actually get to go on the track but we got to go up to pit road while the Richard Petty driving experience was going on! Lots of other fun setups to look... more

Pros: This is a must see for race fans. I would allow 3 hours to do everything. There is a 45 minute IMAX movie and a 30 minute track tour, so check the times for these and plan the rest of your visit around those. The rest will include a motion simulator ride, a decent computer racing game, and a... more

Fist the bad news: it is not cheap -- more than $100 for a family of five, so bring a coupon if you can. The museum part is very small; after about 5 minutes you will get the "is this all there is" sinking feeling. Now the good news: if you are a race fan, it's worth taking the 30-minute... more

Our family visited the Daytona 500 Experience on June 17. We all had a wonderful time! Our 11 year old son has gotten into Nascar over the past year, so it was very exciting for him. We really enjoyed the 30 minute track tour and were able to get a lot of neat pictures and video. You actually get to... more
