found this and found it amusing...

24 reasons to go to Daytona.

1.You know you want to
2.24hrs of sportscar racing
3.you carnt say you have if you havent
4.Paul Newman will be there (tell your wife)
5.so you can say you were one of the first to see Grand Am racing in the new millenium
6.other people have been going since 1962 Chevrolet came back with the corvettes..isnt it about time you joined them.
7.the best sportscra drivers in the world will be there.well over 100 of them maybe more.
8.when was the last time you stayed up for 24hours ..never mind greeting the millenium.
9.The rolex 24hr is held one week before the Nascar races...sportscars are still number 1
10.you can soak up this great event and great track in person
11.Hurley Haywood has won this race 5 times and will be there again in a Porsche.
12.You get out of the house for a while and someone else takes out the garbage.
13.you needed an excuse to go to Florida anyway
14.you love noise and what sweeter sounds can there be than a Ferrari , Judd or Porsche screaming away
15.you can bring the family and when the flag falls at the end you can go over to Orlando and see the mouse thing (Disneyland) and repair the damage to your marriage that one all night stand can bring
16.Kevin Doran and Pat Smith will make sure their Reynard 2KQ's are competitive from the start
17.Wayne Taylor is looking to win again this time in a cadillac. the first time that cadillac has had a chance of winning
18.Florida in Febuary is so much better than Chicago , New York , Detroit or any other sity for that matter
19.Spirit airlines is offering tickets for $68 from New York to Orlando only 60 miles away
20.One rolex 24hr is equal to 2 12 hr races..that means 11 event tickets you dont have to buy and 11 trips you dont have to make to see top sportscars in action..(but you can buy the 11 tickets if you want to see them all)
21.if you miss it you will have to wait 12 whole months to see it again (or you could buy those 11 tickets)
22.Corvette versus Viper
23.its guarenteed to be more enjoyable than cleaning out your garage
24.Getting to Florida from any point in the USA doesnt require a Visa like that other 24hr race


SOUNDS GREAT TO ME !!!!
