Where does the Daytona 500 take place?
You're not going to like this answer, although it's true. The best seats for the Daytona 500 are at whatever sports bar in town has the biggest television. Daytona International Speedway is so big a person who attends the race can only see about half of it, and it's cold outside. I love NASCAR but I wouldn't attend the Daytona 500 even with a free ticket.

Who brings in more fans the Daytona 500 or the Indy 500?
It's tough to say because the Daytona 500 is the Nascar Super Bowl and more fans like Nascar than Indycar, but the Indy 500 racetrack has more seats than in Daytona. So I think more people go to the Indy 500 just because the track has more seats and the Indy 500 is the most important race in motor sports.
