It's Time For: Trivia Day Is Back!

Welcome back once again to my blog! As noted in the title, trivia day is back! Not sure if it will be every Friday like before but it has returned for now. And if you have looked at the picture above which I'm sure you have, you can probably guess what this trivia is about. That's right this will be on the history of "The Great American Race" the Daytona 500. As the 59th annual race comes up this Sunday I couldn't resist doing some trivia to get revved up for the new season. Now it will be the same as before. I will list a few multiple choice questions and you will answer in the comments below. I will post the answers after a couple days. Now there is a new twist this time. You can only use Google for 1 question. That's it. And no I won't know if you use it for every question but try to answer them. You never know you might get it right. OK here we go!
