Mr. Daytona x 8
No rider has ever had the success that Eli Tomac has had at Daytona International Speedway. Come to think of it, nor has any driver: “King” Richard Petty, also known as “Mr. Daytona,” holds the NASCAR record of seven Daytona 500 wins. Tomac has done it on four different brands of motorcycles over the years. His latest win, however, proved to be costly—Eli had to pay $492 for a dentist to fix the front tooth he chipped when this eighth trophy broke on the podium!
