2013 Budweiser Speedweeks

NW wasn't 'dropped'. Bruton and whoever owned Loudon at the time bought NW, then moved its dates to those other two tracks. NASCAR won't assign a race weekend if the owners don't apply for one. It's the same thing that happened to The Rock; Bruton bought it and moved the dates to Texas and one of his other tracks. Oh, Darlington lost one of its two races too.

I agree with dropping the 'Top 35' rule. I do wish they'd kept qualifying order based on practice speeds. I thought it added a bit of drama to qualifying by having the fastest cars go last.

thx........did'nt know
Idid'nt like the 35 rule,wished if you made the chase,you were locked in next year
think quaifying by speed,was dropped,due to sandbaggers.

DP you provide us with more information than the new Nascar site does

I can't find anything on there.....

 

[dpkimmel2001]

I can't find anything on there.....

I hear you. I'm probably about the only one that doesn't mind the layout of the new site but they sure are lacking information. I hope that it is still a work in progress.

I don't mind the layout too much. Along with the lack of info, it just seems much harder to navigate than in the past.

You can tell it's racing time. First day cars are scheduled to hit the track there is a 70% chance of rain.

[BobbyFord]

I hope these Fords are hiding something...

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Kasey is running 13 miles tomorrow? Dang, I can barely run 13 feet.

 

[HoneyBadger]

If it wasn't for bad luck, Juan Pablo Montoya would have no luck.

 

[HoneyBadger]

This one's for Greg.

Matt didn't run them over to did he?

 

[HoneyBadger]

Looks like Danica's got some competition.

 

[FenderBumper]

Matt didn't run them over to did he?

He tried bump drafting but turned them instead. Now they play for the other team. Damn Matt!

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Damn Danica is flying. Just two tenths off the fastest plate lap ever at Daytona.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Danica Patrick's got a rocket ship

 

[HoneyBadger]

The first debris caution of the season has come out.

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Danica Patrick's got a rocket ship

If she can make it through the duel in one piece she's got a real shot in the 500.

 

[FenderBumper]

Damn Danica is flying. Just two tenths off the fastest plate lap ever at Daytona.

That's awesome.

 

[HoneyBadger]

If she can make it through the duel in one piece she's got a real shot in the 500.

If I was Danica and I won the pole tomorrow, I'd start and park in the qualifying race. No sense in destroying a good racecar.

If you were Danica, nobody would listen to Danica.

 

[HoneyBadger]

196 mph in single car runs? What will tonight's pace be?

 

[Tennessee Racing]

These cup guys are so spoiled. They come in prop up their feet and watch people work on the cars. lol

 

[Johali]

Looks like Danica's got some competition.
