I was wondering if Becco had been contracted to re-pave Daytona.
The eventual winner of the race has several local connections.
For those of you who don't follow NASCAR closely, the winner, Jamie McMurray, is a Joplin, Mo. native. He used to be sponsored by Tulsa-based Williams Travel Centers when he was first starting out in NASCAR ten years ago and his current sponsor is Springfield-based Bass Pro Shops. This was a great story: He had lost his ride near the end of last year due to downsizing at his previous team and practically had to beg to get the deal that got him into the car he won with yesterday. Many had written him off as a not having "it". Jamie is truly a nice guy and hopefully, this is a sign of good things to come for him.
