Logano has a jam-packed schedule of media activities this week, including appearances on the Late Show with David Letterman tonight and the TODAY show Tuesday, plus a trip to ESPN\u2019s studios in Bristol, Conn.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t sleep much [last night], that\u2019s for sure,\u201d Logano said. \u201cI didn\u2019t go to sleep, really. My mind just kept thinking about the whole race, how it all played out. I just kept reliving the moment over and over again. It\u2019s amazing &#8230; the DAYTONA 500. It\u2019s something that\u2019s very special. And now, I\u2019m excited about the [media] adventure that\u2019s ahead of me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At Monday morning\u2019s breakfast, Logano, crew chief Todd Gordon and car owner Roger Penske spoke with media prior to another tradition being renewed: installing the DAYTONA 500 winning car \u2013 in this instance the yellow-and-red No. 22 Shell Pennzoil Ford \u2013 inside the Speedway Ticket and Tours Building. The car will be part of the Speedway tours program and will be returned to the team at the 2016 DAYTONA 500, a tradition that began in 1996.<\/p>\n<p>During the Champion\u2019s Breakfast, DIS President Joie Chitwood III presented champion\u2019s jackets to Logano, Gordon and Penske; the Harley J. Earl DAYTONA 500 trophy to Penske; and the Cannonball Baker trophy to Gordon.
