Daytona International Speedway has been host to the Daytona 500, the crown jewel of stock car racing, since NASCAR Hall of Famer Lee Petty won the first running in 1959. Since then, his son Richard -- NASCAR's all-time winningest driver with 200 victories -- won the most Daytona 500 crowns with seven over the course of his career. Jeff Gordon leads active drivers with three wins in the Great American Race.
