Why Daytona Testing Sux. . . .

Living as close as I do to DIS, there could be several reasons why Testing is bothering me. The fact that they begin at 8 AM when I am still alseep doesn't bug me, In fact it's quite soothing to sleep in listening to the sounds of stock car engines, and It's the best alarm clock anyone can wake up to, as far as I'm concerned. No, the problem comes when others don't like this early morning mystery noise, those others being my two dogs in the backyard; and every other dog in the neighborhood, to be exact.(And around here, if you don't have a dog in your yard that's at least 50 pounds, you just don't have a dog.) They did not stop barking and hollering and barking and hollering for 2 HOURS STRAIGHT! I got up and went in to work early just to get away from it. I guess it's just the price I pay for living where I do.:rolleyes:

by the by, I've MIA for 6 months cuz I lost Internet access.
 
Geez, I'm surprised they can startup that early. I visit tracks in New York and New Jersey and none are allowed to fire up motors until 10 am by law.
 
I don't believe so, but the tours at Daytona USA probably let you in for a little bit.

Yes it is. Fans can watch the teams test from the grandstands for free.

That may change in the future. They are wanting to make a bigger deal with the two weeks of testing with more and more things being offered at or around the track. Fans have been able to watch from the 4th turn grandstands and I suspect that someone has seen some dollars signs up there in the stands. Anyway, they want to get some souvineer haulers and other things. Because the sport is growing so, more people are traveling down to Tona for testing to get their fix before the season starts. If that does happen, I look for the cars to have full paint jobs instead of just the primer coats.
