DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) Three-time Grammy Award winner Darius Rucker will perform a pre-race concert before the Daytona 500 in February.
It will be Ruckers fourth appearance at Daytona International Speedway and first at the Great American Race, which will again serve as NASCARs Cup Series season opener. The 500-mile race is scheduled for Feb. 16.
Track president Chip Wile says Ruckers appeal is massive, encompassing fans of both rock and country music, making him a perfect fit for fans at Daytona.
