    Bleacher report's video break down of Biffle's failure to race.

    Not I. 2nd and 3rd (or just the top 10!) is a respectable finish for two cars in the same race team at any track. :p

    Things you miss and things you don't miss about "old NASCAR"

    Yea they did, it used to be pretty horrible. They've done a lot to that track since I started going to it in the early 90s (turn 3-4 seating comes to mind). Honestly the parking wasn't THAT bad before they re-did the place, but the fact that it rained every year just turned the place into a...

    Lawn Mower racing.

    Oh well guess not. :p I seem to be the only backwater hillbilly with a local lawn mower racing scene. :D Honestly I didn't like it til I found out there was free beer to drink. When the season starts up this year I'll get a video and some pictures so I can annoy you guys with 'em. Some...

    Things you miss and things you don't miss about "old NASCAR"

    I miss my father relying on me to keep up with who was in what car every year, what happened during the race while he was passed out in his lazy-e-boy snoring so loud that I could barely hear the TV, and of course getting pulled out of school on race weeks to watch practice and qualifying at the...

    Okay, pack racing fans time to speak up

    I was mostly talking about begin 'pushed' to the front. In other words, I wanna see more sling shot passes without a car behind you begin a requirement. It was a great race. Funny thing is he did that after complaining about the rule changes at Daytona at the start of the year.

    Okay, pack racing fans time to speak up

    If we can get back to the days where one driver can actually make a run to the front without help from someone pushing him I'll be happy with pack racing again. I saw a little of that this weekend and a lot of riding around. I'm hopeful given more chances NASCAR and the drivers might get it...

    Finally the Daytona 500 Race Thread

    Its not really hate from me, just bleh over a disappointing finish. If he would have taken a look or something I wouldn't have said anything, but he was just riding around and blocking the only person with a chance that was actually trying to make the finish interesting. Has nothing to do...

    Things you miss and things you don't miss about "old NASCAR"

    Everyone always goes on and on about how things were better "back in the day" in my experience with fellow NASCAR fans. So since I'm new I thought it'd be fun to ask you guys what you liked and what you hated about the old days of NASCAR. I'll start (note, I ain't that old ;)); Thing I...

    Finally the Daytona 500 Race Thread

    Oh I understand, its a lot of money and sometimes you gotta race smart. Why take out two of your three cars when we could have finished 2nd and 3rd and just gave the win to someone else. But is that good for the fans? I know I'm not a fan of it and have never been. The big teams exist for...

    Best Race: Daytona 2012

    So could the money spent on gas and tires, and the sport isn't very green either. We should just disband all auto racing and make it totally illegal. ;)

    Finally the Daytona 500 Race Thread

    I was amazed when everyone simply forgot he was blocking after it was announced that he had died. I'm still ashamed by the death threats that were sent to Sterling Marlin by my fellow NASCAR fans back then. In this situation I understand why he didn't go for the win, but I think any driver...

    Best Race: Daytona 2012

    Voted for the shootout too, good finish. I don't mind a ton of wrecks or a lot of cars getting taken out as long as the finish is worth watching.

    Finally the Daytona 500 Race Thread

    I agree it would have been better with a second groove. I hate watching them go around with the second line 10 positions behind the inside line. Everyone on the bottom was afraid to go up there, they rode around in 6th place or so with no chance of getting by rather than taking a shot at...

    NASCAR 2012 – BOLD Prediction Thread

    I was thinking that same thing when that happened. :D I'm out but it was worth a shot, if Mark runs next year just go ahead and add mine to the 2013 list. ;)

    Props to Jr. on a good interview, handled that well.

    Congrats to Matt, but this race would have been so much better if the outside line could have got going.

    Was starting to wonder if I was the only one that noticed him holding back a little just waiting around for a chance. :D Go Mark!

    Adding one lap so we can get that commercial we forgot to run last time in. :D You know, maybe we should do something about the amount of commercials that come on during a race. Something like I don't know....allow a company to sponsor the cars and paint big advertisements all over them. I...

    The FOX motto: Nothing interesting happening? Show commercials side by side with race track. Green flag racing? Show commercials full screen so viewers are not tempted to look away.
