In 2002, after he set pole for the Daytona 200, I had an idea. I recorded the at race broadcast stream for Nicky Hayden. Later I burned it on a CD and gave it to him at Road Atlanta in '02. He kept the CD in his car and listened to it quite often, he said. Years later he put the audio on his iPod and would listen to it when bored on flights to Europe and Asia. It's a fun race to listen to; with a great deal of detail.
It's a full radio show of the 2002 Daytona 200—one hour and forty minutes run time. The race was called by Richard Chambers, Pat Gonzales, the late Chris Carter and Honda's Ben Cheatwood.
If you were not at the track, where you could listen to the broadcast on your radio while you watched, you never heard this version of the race.
It's almost a forgotten detail that Jamie Hacking absolutely ran down Anthony Gobert in the final laps of the race to steal second place from the Go-Show.
