Daytona 500 qualifying

[Clutch]

Biffle is one of those guys you don't always expect to get it done

but also one of those guys you can never dismiss.

 

[FLRacingFan]

There it is.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Austin Dillon to the pole as expected.

 

[Clutch]

And then the 3 sneaks in...Lol

 

[DaBiff1618]

And the fix is on

 

[Magicmiler]

Woody conspiracies abound.

 

[FLRacingFan]

And the fix is on

All of their cars are fast.

 

[ToyYoda]

Danica must have lent Austin Dillon her "special" qualifying engine from last year

 

[DaBiff1618]

All of their cars are fast.

Coincidentally the one driving the 3 who's been at the forefront of tv coverage and hyped by nascar all offseason.

 

[BobbyFord]

I threw up in my mouth a little. Washed it down with Fat Tire Ale.
I wonder which moron is going to be the first to suggest that "Dale must've been riding in the car" when Dillon qualified....

He used the same fuel additive as Danica did last year: STP Ratings Booster.

 

[VaDirt]

I normally stay away from the conspiracy/fixed view on the sport, but even I am questioning this one. Hours and hours of hype over the return of the 3, and now it's on the pole? Confidence? Not sure about that....

 

[SlicedBread22]

Fords are pretty quick.. taking up half the top 10 right now Big improvement from last year.

 

[DaBiff1618]

I normally stay away from the conspiracy/fixed view on the sport, but even I am questioning this one. Hours and hours of hype over the return of the 3, and now it's on the pole? Confidence? Not sure about that....

And don't forget the garbage finish at homestead last year. NASCAR anointed this kid to shove down our throats. I could care less about car numbers honestly

 

[HoneyBadger]

Did Austin Dillon get Danica's bigger restrictor plate from last year?

 

[BobbyFord]

Plate racing is a crapshoot. This year it will be a crashfest.
Like I said, the real racing starts March 2nd, in Phoenix.

Confidence?

Lol I wouldn't doubt it, and nice profile pic

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Truex almost ruined the conspiracy theory.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Oh look, another ECR engine on the front row.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Lol I wouldn't doubt it, and nice profile pic

All kidding aside, I agree with VaDirt. I'm very skeptical.

And a MIRACULOUS drop off in just a couple feet for Truex LOL.

 

[HoneyBadger]

I'm not even going to rehash the Nationwide race at Miami.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Come on TRD

 

[FLRacingFan]

Truex almost ruined the conspiracy theory.

NASCAR called for a last-second gust of wind.

 

[BobbyFord]

Jimmie would've had the pole if Tech would have let him by on the first attempt

 

[#17D500winner]

A have no problem with Dillon and all but man the hype is going to be excrutiating

 

[ChexOrWrex]

For an ENTIRE WEEK

 

[DaBiff1618]

All kidding aside, I agree with VaDirt. I'm very skeptical.

And a MIRACULOUS drop off in just a couple feet for Truex LOL.

Yeah 3 tenths in a foot. How weird.

 

[HoneyBadger]

"You're going to lead the field to the green in the DAYTONA 500 in the 3 car"

Because that somehow makes it more important than leading the field to the green flag in the Daytona 500 in any other car. I'm about to throw my TV. Through a window. That is closed.

 

[dpkimmel2001]

Couldn't have been scripted any better.

 

[Chevymaster3]

Austin Dillion on the pole

 

[lisa]

Kurt didn't do well at all. bleh

 

[DaBiff1618]

Whelp good news for Jimmie is that he isn't my least favorite anymore

 

[Magicmiler]

Woody won't start at the front of the Daytona. Engine,crash, something and anything can go wrong for Woody.

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Some of you will get it.

 

[BobbyFord]

Whelp?

 

[DUN24]

This is going to be danica-style media suffocation for the next week. Be prepared.

 

[ToyYoda]

Good showing for Rich Children Racing today.
