Beginning in the 1920s and 1930s, Daytona Beach is widely regarded as one of the places to record speed.

In 1936 Daytona Beach became a synonymous with fast cars. The riders race on a track along the 6.6 km, with a straight track along the coast from 2.4 to 3.2 km and the other straight track that is now known as the state.

Stock car racing in the United States have the basis of the distribution of liquor prohibition policy in the early 1920s. The entrepreneur and creator of liquor then figure out how to distribute their products so that in the end they do the creative but the illegal smuggling of such products on the vehicle (in this case a car) that has been modified so that fast but stable in order to pass through the foothills while avoiding examination / police pursuits.
Junior Johnson (pictured in 1985) is one of the NASCAR driver who at a young age became a paid driver for smuggling liquor.
Changes in the rules regarding the distribution of liquor ban in 1933 to stop the illegal distribution efforts were at once made by employers and drivers who are already looking for other ways to modify the car so that what they have done on their car does not end up in vain. In the end in early 1940s car modification continues and this time they made some sort of small racing event that prizes money. This race success attracted the attention of the audience and become the new trend in the Southern United States with a close association with the Wilkes County region of North Carolina. The majority of races are held hold a road car that has been modified.
