Fodor's Review:

The "official attraction of NASCAR" lets you experience the thrill of a race from the driver's seat with motion simulators like Daytona Dream Laps and Accelerator Alley, a highly realistic head-to-head racing experience in an 80%-scale stock car at speeds reaching 200 mph. Participate in a pit stop on a NASCAR Winston Cup stock car or computer-design your own race car. There's also an exhibit of the history of auto racing with a rotating display of cars, an IMAX theater featuring "NASCAR 3D," and track tours. Daytona USA is also home to the Richard Petty Driving Experience (800/237-3889), where you can ride shotgun in or drive a stock car at Daytona International Speedway (call for prices).

  • Cost: $24
