Daytona Pre-Race Race Thread (Monday Edition)

[HoneyBadger]

And this differs how?

You have no idea.

Nobody better ask me to drive to the other side of the state to cover events for them because they want the night off this week, that's all I'm saying.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Every Wednesday @ noon est, SPEED replays the previous week's CUP race, so if they do, in fact, run the race Monday or Tuesday, it will be replayed on Wednesday so you can set your DVR to record it.

Don't fret, Andy! It will all be OK!

I was gonna go buy a damn VCR but you can't buy videotapes anymore. #PISSED

YAY! I can have them delivered to my house. Hope they have teleportation technology.

do you need a bullet andy

 

[SST55]

Krap, another FedEx, UPS, USPS delivery rant from Andy coming up...............

 

[HoneyBadger]

do you need a bullet andy

No, I just need Brian France to have a brain transplant.

 

[NeverNeutral]

I don't think there is a free Tapatalk. For me, the $2.99 was more than worth it.

I use a free app called ForumRunner, which works decently for browsing but you need to open an internet window (in-app) to post...

 

[Matthew2470]

Oh this really sucks. We're gettin hammered again with rain.

 

[HoneyBadger]

KEEP ON RAINING!

Let's get this party delayed until 9pm (where I will have a slim chance of seeing any of the race) and I'll be happy.

We just need storms to stop popping up.

I know, unfortunately thats how Florida is..

 

[mike honcho]

Hey Andy can you drive over to Amarillo and cover the lawnmower race there for me on Fri. I can't do it and need the day off.

 

[Mopardh9]

Looks like there is a chance for showers tonight too, Speed just had a update said the track got a little wet with latest shower , but that they now have it dried. This could be a mad dash to half way tonight, I'll be surprised if all 200 laps get run. The damn aticipation of running this race is getting old.......lol

 

[VaDirt]

Well, if the future track thing they have on weather.com is any indication, it looks like they should be fine.

 

[Lap3Forever]

I can't believe people were dumb enough to do that.

Belle-Clair Speedway in Belleview IL the flag man still walks out on to the track

 

[FenderBumper]

Breaking news
Danica Patrick is in Salt Lake City, Utah, filming a GoDaddy commercial with Brian France. NASCAR postpones race until Tuesday.

 

[FenderBumper]

More breaking news

Fox fails to meet demands of their biggest race day mascot. Digger becomes spokesrodent for Funerals R Us.

Yes, I'm bored.

 

[FenderBumper]

I wonder what a GoDaddy commercial filmed in the heart of Mormon country would look like.

 

[StewartHaas-Gibbs Racing]

Speed has a pre-show on now lol more Waltrips

 

[StewartHaas-Gibbs Racing]

It's a shame that the stands look pretty empty so far.

 

[Bucky Badger]

I just talked to a DIRECTV rep. They told me this...

"The race will be on 607 tonight". Speed TV for folks that don't have directv.

This is an official answer from DTV.

My DTV guide shows it on Fox

 

[VaDirt]

My DTV guide shows it on Fox

Mine still shows the regular shows on Fox.

 

[dpkimmel2001]

HotPass channels are loaded too!

Let's go racin!

I never get my seat until after the invocation.

[Matthew2470]

Ok. I am almost getting excited about the race...

Hermie looks like he should be singing 70s era country music. Eddie Rabbitt anyone?

 

[nascage]

Marty Smith just reported live from Daytona on Sportscenter. Says the race is a go and that "it's finally here". Saw the sun peaking out of the clouds from behind him. A good sign.

 

[#17D500winner]

Hermie Sadler is looking like Kenny Rogers. lol

 

[StewartHaas-Gibbs Racing]

I've had enough of the pre-race stuff. Lets go racing!

Funny, we posted basically the same thing at the same time. I thought Eddie Rabbit though.
