SAN DIEGO, Aug. 4 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Fleet Week Coronado Speed Festival will be barreling down on San Diego like a Blue Angels squadron coming out of the hot summer sky, faster than you can say "Gentlemen, start your engines." No surprise then that the race to get your tickets has begun with this weekend's Sign on San Diego Daily Deal.  

Two-day event passes, normally $30, will cost just $15 when you click the Daily Deal button at Sign on San Diego, http://dailydeal.signonsandiego.com/, from Friday, August 6 – Sunday, August 8.  Fleet Week Coronado Speed Festival will be held September 25-26 at the Naval Air Station North Island and promises to rock the base like never before.

Not only is Coronado Speed Festival the only auto racing venue in the world held on an active U.S. Navy runway, it's two days packed with heart-thumping racing and military demonstrations guaranteed to delight the entire family.  Landing Craft Air Cushion display, Leap Frog (Navy Parachute Team) performances, flyovers and ship tours are a few of the exciting ways the military shows its expertise over these two days.

Car enthusiasts will love the virtually non-stop racing, test drives of several car models, strolling through literally hundreds of vintage autos on display, plus Garage Tours where visitors are encouraged to freely inspect the race cars and talk with owners and drivers of these captivating vehicles.  There is live entertainment available all day during race activities.
