Countdown to Daytona

Distributed by The Sports Xchange

There are 24 days left before the Feb. 24, 2013 Daytona 500; hence, today's number is:

24: The number of NASCAR Sprint Cup Series victories posted individually by brothers Kurt and Kyle Busch, who are tied with Matt Kenseth for 26th on the all-time list. With 48 wins combined, Kurt and Kyle are fifth all-time in victories by brothers, a category led by Bobby and Donnie Allison, with 84 and 10 wins, respectively. Though neither of the Busch brothers has won the Daytona 500, they have accounted for the last two victories in the Sprint Unlimited (formerly Daytona Shootout), with Kurt winning in 2011 and Kyle in 2012.
