We normally don't rate these but It's fun to see what everybody thinks at certain truck races.

9

A helluva race. The only downside was the constant wrecks.
 
8.5 The racing was intense, and definitely kept my attention. I hate to see that much carnage though. Thankful that there were no serious injuries.
 
7 But when I apply my automatic reduction for spec motors, I give it a 0.
 
9, one of the best races I have seen at Daytona. Unfortunately the crash fest at the end kept me from giving it a 10.
 
9 only thing that stopped it from being a 10 was the carnage at the end. The Daytona truck race is one of my favorite races every year

9..... We are gonna watch more truck races. Much more watchable than the duels!!!
These drivers ain't scared of not finishing. Go for the lead, then go for the win!

9 Yes lots of wrecks but guys were making lots of moves, and some inexperience shows in that. Still love the trucks anyway and they put on one heck of a show!
 
10 This guy is like somebody with a water hose at the pool party. Nice touch blasting Decker and her helpers when she is trying to go over the wall. Nobody hurt so all is well that kinda ends well? and funny as hell

 
9 - I was thoroughly entertained and stayed awake! Cant say the same for the Duels.
 
9 it was fun to watch.

Anybody else see Decker take a dive going over the pit wall?

The best truck won and everyone walked away. Otherwise, terrible decision making and poor racing techniques led to uneeded wrecks. The driving talent was subpar. To me that wasn't racing, that was a circus. Much rather rather a single file train where cars/trucks have to really work to pass/advance position.

These rankings prove to me that people do watch racing for wrecks and that ultimately distance racing has no place in modern American sports culture.
 
6, due to the time it takes to clear the wrecks. The last part of the race went on, and on, and on.
 
5.

I don't like the rule that prohibits pushing and encourages bumping/banging. It is unnatural and leads to too many trucks getting turned, IMO.

I liked the intensity of the race during the green-flag moments, but just too much carnage to earn a high rating from me. Basically, I agree with @KodiakRusty89.
