CHRISTENSEN ARMS RACES IN THE DAYTONA 500
Race Day
Feb 18, 2020 | Christensen Arms
Christensen Arms teamed up with Rick Ware Racing® and driver, BJ McLeod, to race in the 2020 DAYTONA 500® at Daytona International Speedway®.
One of the highlights for the DAYTONA 500 winner is the traditional victory lap. If you’re a racing fan, you know that a victory lap is when the winner of the race takes a celebratory lap around the track. We took a lot of those during the race.
On Sunday and Monday, Christensen Arms raced with some of the best drivers and fans in the world. During lap 90, BJ was involved in a crash that would eventually take him out of the race.

The outstanding Rick Ware Racing pit crew worked relentlessly to repair the car, but once BJ left the garage to reenter the race, he decided against taking more laps for the safety of himself and other drivers.
This race was Christensen Arms first time on the Nascar® stage, and we are thrilled to have made so many new Nascar friends.
Christensen Arms participated in the “Great American Race” with a great racing team, driver and fans. No. 11 Denny Hamlin might have taken the one official victory lap, but we think our No. 52 Christensen Arms car took 90 of those at the 62nd Daytona 500.
