Daytona is not just about Redneck Nascar racing.  ;)

Porsche Legacy at the Daytona 24 Hour


Quote
The 48th running of the Rolex 24 at Daytona marks the 42nd anniversary of Vic Elford's victory in the Porsche 907, Porsche's first 24 hour endurance win. To celebrate the occasion, David Donohue pilots a 2010 Porsche GT3 around the Daytona road course while Vic Elford, the Grand Marshal for this year's race, tells the story of his victory for Porsche.

There were a lot of historic Porsches on display last year when I went as well..

and Daytona... that place is for rednecks. The 24hr Rolex race barely gets any attention over there. They all wait for NASCAR which is a few weekends after the 24hr. It's really like a ghost town during the 24hr race.
