Well it is an airshow...just not your average, typical one. Its more of an airshow as in tons of planes flying banners around the track, all the blimps and helicopters covering the races, flybys for opening ceremonies, teams and drivers flying in and out, airline service, and all the Embry-Riddle students doing their flying.
The F-15s were doing the flyby for the Camping World 300 opening ceremonies, and the Thunderbirds will be doing the same for the Daytona 500 today because its the 50th running of the 500.
