The Daytona Beach Road Course was a race track that was instrumental in the formation of the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, or NASCAR. It originally became famous as the location where fifteen world land speed records were set.
The course started on the pavement of highway A1A . A restaurant named "Racing's North Turn" now stands at that location. It went south two miles parallel to the ocean on A1A to the end of the road, where the drivers accessed the beach at the south turn at the Beach Street approach 29.084705°N 80.925566°W / 29.084705; -80.925566, returned two miles north on the sandy beach surface, and returned to A1A at the north turn. The lap length in early events was 3.2 miles , and it was lengthened to 4.2 miles in the late 1940s. In the video game NASCAR Thunder 2004 by EA Sports, the course is shortened to about half its distance, but still shows how the basic course was set up.
