I was just told by a ticket agent at Daytona Int'l Speedway that the Daytona 200 will be a NIGHT race for the first time this year

They don't have the schedule of events yet, so I couldn't get the start time.

Has anyone else heard this? I know the Super Cross race is Friday night, but the 200 at night? The agent confirmed it was going to be at night when I asked if she was sure. Since it follows the Boxer Cup and maybe one other feature race on Saturday, it will be interesting to see when each race will run.

The schedule on AMAsuperbike.com says it is supposed to start around 2:00. Not a night race.

Thanks. That's what I figured.

I had looked at AMASuperbike.com and couldn't find the schedule anywhere even though I knew I had seen it before. I guess I was really in a panic over what the agent had said.

I believe the Supercross is at night now to shorten schedule so road bikes can race on Saturday.
