We have gone the week before Presiden't Day for the last few years, mainly because it's cheaper. I have been thinking, other than cost savings, are there any advantages to booking the later week? We usually have the FRI and MON off from school, so we could go either week. I've heard people talk of 'Race Week'. The race is Sunday, so which week is busier?

Thanks for your ideas!

While the events in Daytona do help drive crowds up some the week before Presidents' day, there's really no comparison in the crowds the week before and the week of Presidents day. The week of Presidents' day is very crowded and is the kickoff of the busy spring break season.

Many schools in the Northeast, and perhaps other parts of the country, are closed the week of Presidents' day and many of those families use that week to travel to Disney.

I'd stick with the week before.

The earlier in the year you go - the better due to school schedules mostly. Less crowded, cooler weather etc.
