I’ve never been to a nascar and I’ve heard great things about both. I’m trying to decide between both of them. We’ll get an rv and camp on the inside track at whichever one we choose. Any suggestions?

Talladega by far if you’ll be on the infield

I don’t think you could go wrong with either. I think Talladega has the better racing, and definitely is a huge party if you’re there for camping. However, if you have the opportunity to go to the Daytona 500, that’s hard to pass up because of what it is.

They are both great. But I have been to Dega twice and have had a great time both times. Your feet literally shake under you the first time the pack comes by you under power.

Plus, nobody does debauchery like the Dega infield.

I’d go to Dega but Daytona is an awesome track to see. Dega has a party in the infield all weekend long.

I only wanted to go once. Got w major sponsor customer of mine. We did Dega on the infield for two days and I got what I wanted. On big race day they threw us in stands … we lasted an hour then headed home . Great experience don’t need to do again

PSA Don’t forget Fried Bologna Sandwich

Talladega used to be a riot, especially if you RV'd over by the mud hole.

Daytona is okay, but it's no Bristol

Talladega has a bigger ratio of incestuous
people and Daytona is the better track and experience

Hard not to say Daytona especially if you have a week or so.
In the past, the infield at Talladega has been instrumental in the development of young men's introductions to and appreciation of the female upper torso.

Can’t go wrong with either. Been to both tracks. Both extremely similar as far as racing goes. Depends on how you’re traveling. If you’re in a RV, I’d go Dega for the infield. If you’re looking for a vacation, and stuff outside the track, Daytona. Also probably depends on the race. Obviously Daytona 500 is the best race, and I would recommend Daytona if they still had the 4th of July race, but they don’t anymore. Daytona is also home to me so I’m a little bias. So I’d go to a race anytime in Daytona before Talladega. Daytona just has a more big time feel to it. It’s built up like a NFL football stadium outside, they have a better museum with each previous Daytona 500 car in there. The party is probably bigger/ more southern at Dega, but Daytona is Nascar. That’s where the super bowl is held, and where the greatest driver of all time died. Imo Daytona has a feel that is more special than Talladega.

Talladega was a a great 5 days we stayed in the infield I was 27 and with my boys it was spring break for an adult I would highly recommend.

The beach this time of year with kids if you have them is a massive plus for Daytona i would imagine. Also if their small the boogie board riding being a blast there. Only second to sebastian inlet.

I have no clue about Talladega but i would imagine the eating spots are better in Daytona but could be dead wrong .Right off the beach you got games games for kids. Say it rains movie theater with bubba gump shrimp and others right there too.

Daytona isn't far from gainesville so yeah i love it id literally sleep in my car or before i had one the beach. Unless i met a generous girl.

Hell even black bike can be a fricking blast. Im white btw but in my younger days women actually would approach me there.
