Coca-Cola 400 The Coke 400 is the name of a 160 lap/400 mile (approx. 640 km) NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series stock car race held on the first Saturday night of July, usually around Independence Day weekend, at Daytona International Speedway. The Coke 400 has a storied and unique history, known formerly as the Firecracker 250 for the first four runnings (1959-1962), then as the Firecracker 400 until 1985, when Pepsi-Cola became the title sponsor, adding the Pepsi name to the race title. In 1989, the "Firecracker" name was dropped, and the race was renamed the Pepsi 400. The race name is being changed to the Coke 400, as The Coca-Cola Company becomes the corporate sponsor in 2008, as part of a new contract with International Speedway Corporation, Daytona International Speedway's parent company.
