Harry M. Wyatt III was given the position of honor as the grand marshall of the last race before the "Chase for the Cup." Wyatt, alongside Maj. Gen. Daniel E. Long, Jr., Adjutant General of Virginia, toured the race complex and visited the numerous Airmen and Soldiers of the National Guard there participating in the pre-race ceremonies.As part of his duties as grand marshall, Wyatt was given the opportunity to announce the famous saying, "Gentlemen, start your engines in front of the near sell out crowd." He also awarded the Air Guard 400 trophy in Victory Lane to the winner of the race, Denny Hamlin, who secured himself the number-one seed in the NASCAR chase for the championship.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - On Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, 2008 Daytona 500 winner Ryan Newman poses for photographers with the Daytona International Speedway show car. Newman is visiting Kennedy in honor of NASA's 50th anniversary and the 50th running of NASCAR's Daytona 500 in February. NASA presented Newman two green racing flags that were flown last February aboard space shuttle Atlantis' STS-122 mission to the International Space Station. One flag was given to Newman, the second was presented to Daytona 500 Experience General Manager Kim Isemann. A third flag that was flown will be kept by NASA for public display. The connection between NASA and Daytona's International Speedway extends beyond their close proximity to one another. During recent years, technology developed for the space program has found many uses on Earth, including helping NASCAR drivers stay safe and increase performance.
