ARCA race tonight, 7:30pm EST... televised live on SPEED.

Magnethead is on location for the Rattlesnake 150 and will be covering the race for RacingForTheWin.com.

I do hate the name of the race, but the logo is cool as hell!

Looking at the weather, it does not look good. This could be a race to lap 51.

Hard crash

Saw the race Friday night, just been too busy to comment on it. Good race. I was expecting James Buescher to run away with it and a lot more crashes. Steve Arpin and Justin Marks look like the front-runners so far, but Craig Goess has been strong as well.

I'm not supposed to have any biases, but I was really pulling for Enfinger. Yes, he has good equipment, but he's still the underdog. Not a powerhouse team like Venturini Motorsports and Eddie Sharp Racing. Nothing against those teams but I'd rather see a little guy win.

Now, on to Talladega -- let's hope we get through this one without killing anyone.

I was expecting a lot more crashes.

The ARCA races have been impressive this year with the lack of wrecks. Even in the rain at Palm Beach, they were great. The race at Salem was good too. Expecting that to not continue at Talladega. Toledo is coming up too and out of all of the ARCA short tracks that one usually has the most wrecks.

ah yeah, i didnt catch daytona. I was just thinking of the races i saw. Talladega will probably end up being like Daytona anyway.

That's typical ARCA Daytona. Daytona and Talladega are usually the suckiest races of the year in ARCA racing.

The spring race at Rockingham and the road race at New Jersey last year were really clean as well.
