    From the first race in 1959 to the last 2010 race before the repave, Daytona International Speedway holds more than 50 years of unforgettable racing history.

    Daytona International Speedway, which was built in the late 1950s, has been resurfaced only once previously - in 1978. The Daytona International Speedway’s entire 2.5-mile tri-oval will be repaved, including the skid pads, apron and pit road. Concrete will be used for the pit stalls. The repaving project has a target completion date of January 1, 2011.

    Lane Construction, which repaved other ISC race tracks including Talladega Superspeedway, Homestead-Miami Speedway, Richmond International Raceway and Darlington Raceway, removed the historic track and has been contracted to repave Daytona International Speedway.

    Jostens supplies trophies and championship rings for NASCAR-sanctioned series and is the exclusive designer/provider of NASCAR championship rings. Jostens presented Jamie McMurray with a one-of-a-kind Champions Ring following his thrilling triumph in the 2010 DAYTONA 500®. Jostens has created 28 of the 43 NFL Super Bowl rings, including the ring for the Green Bay Packers Super Bowl I victory. Jostens has also designed and produced NBA Finals and World Series championship rings, as well as rings for collegiate sports championships.
