200 I belive it's called Daytona 500 for the number of miles ran.

Mr Hawk · Answer

I think it's 500 after the title, but then again it could be 500 miles. I really don't know but then again I think it's like 250 laps or something like that I don't know for sure though.

200 but if there is a gwc(green white checkered) then it is 203 but they just instaled that rule so usally 200 if not stopped by rain like in 04 where there can be any numba of laps from 1-203
