Daytona Monument bricks

by

A packed crowd gathered at the Daytona Monument, which stands adjacent to the old start line for the original Daytona 200 beach race, to witness the placing of the latest memorial bricks during Daytona Bike Week.

Pictured are Dick Klamfoth, three times a Daytona 200 winner, the original instigator of the Daytona Monument, and Daytona 200 winner Don Emde who does so much to keep the memory of all the Daytona racing greats alive.

A mixed audience of former Daytona racers, fans and even a good number of the young guys still taking on the challenge of the Daytona banking shows the respect held for the pioneers of this great race.
