2: The number of repeat winners of the 400-mile NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Daytona in the last 20 years. Tony Stewart won the July 4 weekend event three times (2005, 2006 and 2009) to tie Jeff Gordon (1995, 1998 and 2004) for most wins in the last two decades in what is now the Coke Zero 400. The other 14 winners are an interesting hodgepodge of stars and surprises: Ernie Irvan (1992), Dale Earnhardt Sr. (1993), Jimmy Spencer (1994), Sterling Marlin (1996), John Andretti (1997), Dale Jarrett (1999), Jeff Burton (2000), Dale Earnhardt Jr. (2001), Michael Waltrip (2002), Greg Biffle (2003), Jamie McMurray (2007), Kyle Busch (2008), Kevin Harvick (2010) and David Ragan (2011).
