Where Did They Race On The Beach At Daytona Beach?
Beach racing at Daytona Beach was the foundation that led to today’s Daytona International Raceway built by “Big Bill” France who organized NASCAR.
Original beach racing photos and movie coverage is captivating … assuming that you like that sort of history with all of the drivers and unique challenges associated with an earlier era of technology and safety issues.
Today, if you want to go to the actual beach race course the best location is Racing’s North Turn Restaurant which is located at the point of the north turn along the beach. Inside the restaurant are hundreds of photos and memorabilia. Spending some time at Racing’s North Turn Restaurant is an opportunity to look back at history.
