For a look at the daytona 500 coming up on sunday. Ryan a look at what it means to be a racecar driver. Good morning, guys john i hope you can hear us. They started a woodchipper on the other side of the fence here. Of good timing amy you know, were not the only people out here. John had to take a few trees down during the break it is tough. Talking to jeff gordon about how you think it is just driving but its not at all. It is tough work. Amy look at the numbers, a racecar driver is indeed an athlete. A typical race is comparable to a three hour workout and, wired. Com looked at Danica Patrick and she focuses on Upper Body Strength and neck muscles and stays up right during the hard turns and controlling the Steering Wheel is like holding a medicine ball for two hours. Straight. Can you imagine . A medicine ball two hours straight. And, 150 degrees inside the cars and many add a body suit and drivers can sweat off 7 pounds in one race. Did you see danica doing the yoga class the other day . That is how they stay physically fit and the pit crew works out hard. John Andrea Jackson talked with one ucf professor who helped one race team go all the way. Nascar pit crews change huge tires and gas up cars in a what theyp do, the pit crew, i dont think they get enough credit. What they do all week long. Dr. Jeff stout is a ucf professor of sports and exercise science and helped dale jarrett win the winston cup after and exercise and Nutrition Program specifically for the pit crew. The transformation was amazing and morep importantly, their pit times went down by about two seconds. And i was told that for every second you save in the pit you gain 400 meters on the track. The doctor broke down the routine down to the slightest movements of changing the 75 pound tire and designed a plan to build their speed and power. When it comes to being part of the pit crew, size and body type matters. The body type is similar to a navy s. E. A. L. Not too pp big. You have to have fast be fast and lean and have endurance, mental and physical endurance. Reporter mind and body must be at Peak Performance to endure long hours at the track and focus on the precision of the sport. And i have never been a nascar fan but i am now reporter Andrea Jackson, fox 35 news. John it is hard work and you dont think about it. Amy it is. And the other thing, it is not easy. Still ahead the cars in the daytona 500 will have something a little different than what theyve had in the past. They had digital have digital dash boards, a look at the new additions and what it means for the drivers. It is 8 39. Live at Daytona International speedway on your friday morning, watching good day on the road on misleading advertising. How to fight it, today at 5 00. The low rider is a little higher amy welcome back to good day orlando. Live at the track. And a nice view this morning. And there is a bit of a breeze but man alive, talk about a difference a year makes and one year ago, it was in the 20s out here and we could not there werent enough layers in the e world to make it work last year. Could you imagine race time and talking mid 70s, it is perfect. Couldnt get any better in Central Florida and over 100 Million People came to florida for vacation and this is what they experience. Amy and weve seen a lot of amenities, too. It is beautiful. The car the racers drive at the daytona 500 may look plain on the outside, right, just a shell but on the inside theres a lot of technology. Place they lagged behind. A lot of the cars we drive and our farce were fancier and now that changed. Tom johnson shows you nascars brand new digital dashboard. Nascar is changing the way drivers monitor pretty much everything on board their cars. This is what the dash boards used to look like before the season. But these dash boards have taken a technological leap forward. It is a leap that catches up with the text a ch you have in your cars. Casey mears, number 13 chevy, and the fancy ltv video screen, the leap. The avenue for drivers and cars. And, pat works for casey mears racing competition Ford Performance and says the digital dash boards are about making sure the drivers and teams have quick and easy access to info. You want a fuel saving mode flag mode. It lets them customize and switch between screens to keep track of what is going on. And eventually, it will feed some of that info to you, the fans. In the future it will allow the fans to engage more with the data. As the data becomes available. Now, it gives drivers an easier, more techcurrent way to do their jobs. This is the next step of nascar. Cool. I want one of those. How much do they cost . I cant afford them. Thank you. I cant afford it, either. Amy in the front know of eliott. John a young guy. 20yearold, and, in college, maybe starting the guy and this guy is on top of the world, at just 20 becomes the youngest the daytona 500. And more impressive does it as a rookie making his first ever lap around the daytona in a car and if it sound familiar because it should be. His dad is legend bill eliott.

Hes the son of bill eliott, one of earnhardts racing rivals. Earnhardt died 15 years ago yesterday. Right here at the daytona 500 and he was 49 when he died and, that has left an indelible mark on racing. 15 years later and dale earnhardt, jr. Said hes amazed how many people miss his dad and they held a vigil in North Carolina for his dad and people talked about it and tweeted and the picture has a lot of emotion. John and with nascar, i spoke with darrell waltrip. 20 years since he won the daytona 500 and they are about numbers and dale earnhardt, jr. Last night talking about, day dreaming, dreaming of winning the race last night on the anniversary of his fathers death.
