I'm watching the first ARCA race in Daytona right now. Later tonight is the NASCAR Bud shootout at Daytona. In 8 days (Sunday) will be the first offical main NASCAR race. (Actually there is stuff happening all week at Daytona - watched many practices and such for the past couple of days.)

Actually there are 10 days of NASCAR related activities leadng up to next Sunday.

IRL - i don't know, i don't follow that. :-)
