Chase Elliott. In his Rookie year.
Biffle had some impressive speed in happy hour.

High attrition early. Careful and fortunate playing of flags and wave-arounds. Rain just after half way. It just could be that certain, special driver's evening.

Did you kids enjoy today's earlier festivities?
Louie Shamilton was gifted the Monaco Grand Prix by RedBull's ineptitude and was later caught on camera in an awkward embrace with Justin Bieber.
The 100th running of the fabled Indy 500 produced a surprise fuel mileage winner in Alexander Rossi, recently displaced by F1 team Manor because the Indonesian government produced a larger financial package with which to buy Alex's seat for their guy. Fascinating stuff. The event was further highlighted by the appearance of Lady Gaga in the two-seater behind Mario Andretti. No word yet on whether or not she was wearing a meat dress.
Okay ... let's get back to dissing NASCAR ...

I really, really want to see a first-time winner tonight. I am so ready for the next generation of drivers to step in and displace the older veterans.

Of course, the sympathy vote goes far in NASCAR, fans love to root for underdogs. If he ever wins it'll be when literally nobody expects like fuel mileage or something, he can't handle the pressure. Now Chase could certainly win tonight

Trevor Bayne or Stenhouse winning tonight would be awesome...

A win would be big for Kahne. With Harvick takin' his ride next year it could raise his value to another top team.

Out of 6 long shots they think he has the best chance to win. Not out of the entire field.

Competition caution at lap 25, I heard.

You know, I forgot to add that part, silly me.

I can see Bayne winning, last few races, he is like a totally different driver.

For all the anthems that get ripped to shreds on here...that one was easily the worst.

I would guess there will be a half dozen cars a lap down by then so I can see Nascar wanting to slow things down a bit just in case some of the better funded teams need to make adjustments.

Totally better cars. Remember those new hires we talked about?

I could be wrong but didn't they adopt some software within the past year that most big teams were already using as well?
