    Xfinity RACE thread --- Daytona Road Course

    I'm hoping this is both fun to watch and resembles a race and not "chaos" so it ends by 7:30! I have the race/DePaul hoops FS1 double-header going tonight!

    Caution out! never got to the last chicane for the final dive bomb attempt..... I watched the whole thing but didn't think to post until it got real whacky at the end. oval or road course doesn't matter; chaos is Daytona!

    How good was Hut Stricklin?

    He was solid! Had several good runs in the Reybestos #12 (beautiful car!) but couldn't get over the hump! He had the dominant car at Darlington one year when he was in the #8 Circuit City Ford. Ultimately, something happened and he lost it with only a few laps left.

    Rusty nearly died at Bristol when he barrel rolled down the front straight then had those two nasty flips at Daytona (3 car incident) and Talladega (just him) in 1993. Dale Sr. bumped him at Talladega on the last lap which sent him flying past the start finish line. Sr. showed legit concern for...

    While I don't think ROVALS were created for straight up chaos there were definitely designed for more "beating and banging" and by default more wrecks WHILE providing a better tv/spectator setup (infrastructure in place) relative to a traditional road course. It has the feel of the old Mickey...

    It has not happened at every plate race the last 20 year;s, I can provide numerous examples of clean finishes. When there was still fear of injury pre COT is was less common. Talladega still has races that finish relatively clean from time to time. Daytona is definitely more of the "chaos" track...

    I love how popular the word "chaos" became over the weekend. Tons of Monday morning headlines are using it. I've been using it for a couple years now when it comes to plate/pack tracks. I think it's more appealing to the average consumer than "racing". Embrace the carnage!! I posted this last...

    Yup! Davey Allison was the first driver I ever recall having post-concussion symptoms that were brought to light following his Winston wreck. It took another 20 years for people to take notice again. Those were big time hits and adrenaline/emotion can mask injuries for a bit....

    I can see that. From my perspective he brings a little modern day Benny Parsons to the booth which is refreshing.....

    It's chaos it's not racing. The drivers and broadcasters are straight up telling us that. That word is being used over and over now. No one is trying to hide what type of entertainment they're selling us.

    8 Racing stinks but the wrecks were once against spectacular. NASCAR will be the talk of the sports world tomorrow due to that last lap crash!

    Fans in the stands too. There was a tire that went flying in that wreck. We've recently had some injured at Daytona...

    I know the wrecks are what sells and imo is sadly what pack racing is about these days. With that said, when you continue to disrespect the fragility of human life it NEVER ends well. Kyle Petty said some like that but in more in-depth manner during the "Intimidator" ESPN special. It's not a...

    That's what sells! that will be far more popular than McDowell winning. That wreck will be shown 1000 times tomorrow morning and be a huge hit on twitter and fb to start the week.
