Hello Daytona Beach, Florida! Any #Daytona500 fans down there? Here is a nice pic of Daytona International Speedway from @Space_Station.

This was taken Feb. 24 --- but still cool.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Come on! Let's get going!

 

[Clutch]

Awesome anthem! Who was she?

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Jordin Sparks

Jordin Sparks

Thanks I wondered if it were her. I remember her from Idol.

 

[Kiante]

Tony's a goofball.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Only NASCAR would have timing and scoring issues before a race starts

 

[KodiakRusty89]

Sure is a perfect day!! Hopefully it's a safe race. I'm expecting a chaotic final 20 laps. Who wins is anyone's guess....

 

[Michfan]

Boogity

 

[RacerrecaR]

Something big will happen today. What it will be I have no idea. Way too much energy for this to be an uneventful race.

 

[ReturnTrip]

Drivers, start your engines....then turn them off again.

 

[Racer1930]

DW actually just made a good point...there will likely be some creative "strategery" based on the whole three stage thingy.

[Hotrod]

Please please no first stage cautions. After that you can take the gloves off.

 

[racer8]

Gordon ear to ear grin

 

[Professur]

I knew you couldn't wait for the green

 

[Kiante]

Still hard to believe Kurt has never won a plate race in his career.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

A lot of fresh faces. This is going to be interesting.

 

[Blaze]

Good luck with that.

 

[Racer1930]

is it just the stage winner who gets points? They have gone through it a bunch but I can't keep track

 

[DUN24]

Yes, I hope they do the exact opposite of the past two days. Lol

Yeah, that's nuts. He's came so close to winning the 500 multiple times. Can't believe he's never had any RP wins in cup

 

[sdj]

Spoiler alert, Matt is going to win today.

 

[ToyYoda]

10-1 for 1st through 10th.

 

[Michfan]

And of course Fox is the one channel that HD is not working on my TV...

 

[*WEAVER*]

I'm taking Bowyer for the win today.

 

[Rick]

The stage winner also gets 1 playoff bonus point

 

[Professur]

*drumroll*

 

[Conner]

Go get em Chase and Dale Jr!!

 

[racer8]

Is the pace car gonna win the first segment?

 

[jws926]

Still hard to believe Kurt has never won a plate race in his career.

I hope he can change that today

 

[Hotrod]

One more tug on those belts.
