We went down to the Ponce de Leon lighthouse. You can climb to the top and get great views, then right nearby is Daytona Speedway. We took a tour inside there and that was just awesome. There is a museum inside you walk through after the tour. They drive the winners car inside and leave it for a year each year, you can see the battled car as it came off the track.
