Miss The Daytona 200? Catch It All On YouTube
If you missed the Daytona 200 this year, you can catch the full race, in its entirety, now on Youtube. See it below.
Many fans of road racing in the U.S. are well aware the series isn’t doing so well this season. A dramatic drop in scheduled races this year hurt the series, but perhaps the biggest blow was not being able to secure a television package for the season. An extremely late announcement that the entire 2014 season would be live streamed on Fanschoice.tv clearly wasn’t noticed by all.
That’s too bad, as this year’s race was highly entertaining. At least for the first two-thirds of it. There were large drafting battles and good battles for the lead. An unfortunate crash meant the battle up front came to an end, but nonetheless, the historic finish marks the end of the 200 being run by the middleweight class. Next year, the Daytona 200 will once again be run by the 1000cc Superbikes.
Troy's been riding motorcycles and writing about them since 2006, getting his start at Rider Magazine. From there, he moved to Sport Rider Magazine before finally landing at Motorcycle.com in 2011. A lifelong gearhead who didn't fully immerse himself in motorcycles until his teenage years, Troy's interests have always been in technology, performance, and going fast. Naturally, racing was the perfect avenue to combine all three. Troy has been racing nearly as long as he's been riding and has competed at the AMA national level. He's also won multiple club races throughout the country, culminating in a Utah Sport Bike Association championship in 2011. He has been invited as a guest instructor for the Yamaha Champions Riding School, and when he's not out riding, he's either wrenching on bikes or watching MotoGP.
