Ormond Beach
At the end of the 19th Century it was a winter playground for northern industrialists. By the dawn of the 20th Ormond Beach became a practical destination for pioneering automobile racers to find top speeds on hard-packed sand. And today it is known as a nostalgic place where modern Daytona 500 revelers can discover where racing began.
