Finally the Daytona 500 Race Thread

[VaDirt]

Funny the difference in the number of commercials on during the race to what they had on during this cleanup?

Now that you mention it, that is something.

It will all come down to who is in the front after the next two wrecks

 

[BobbyFord]

He knows. He's won 4.

Keep in mind that you can't win without a car.

The race isn't over.
And...he's only won 4

 

[Jeffrey00]

I bet JPM has already landed in Miami, taken a shower, and watching the rest of this race from his bed.

Or makes it through.

185K Keselowski has entered Juan Pablo territory.

 

[Racer1930]

Actually - those fellas did a pretty good job...I would expect that the TIDE did it's best and they will slide around and crash....they should have used bleach.

 

[Mopardh9]

99 to the back. Dumbass Ford driver forgot about Marlin. Candyass too.

That will make Edwards unravel, Kyle will just roll with it.

 

[StewartHaas-Gibbs Racing]

All of these fans in the stands deserve major credit for sitting through all the bull**** they have sat through these past two days. I know it won't happen but they really should offer half off tickets to the summer race or something.

 

[Racer1930]

Or makes it through.

Yep - exactly

Those aren't fans, they are Cuban refugees.

F the fans - they have a cool memory...

 

[Mopardh9]

You are exactly right - I was just taking it from NASCAR's point of view - thought you would catch that.

no offense

no problem

 

[DanicaFan]

I am praying no more wrecks. Im ready to get a winner in this thing.

 

[Mopardh9]

I bet JPM has already landed in Miami, taken a shower, and watching the rest of this race from his bed.

 

[Jeffrey00]

So how many of these cars wont fire up??

 

[FenderBumper]

F the fans - they have a cool memory...

Hot...hot memory.

 

[FenderBumper]

So how many of these cars wont fire up??

Juan or 2.

 

[mike honcho]

Why don't they check the SHINEY black parts of the track?

 

[Racer1930]

We have to remember - this is the last 35 laps of the DAYTONA 500....this is going to be - probably - more wild than the other laps. No driver is stupid enough to look at this as a race they just want to finish out - - - this is the DAYTONA 500.

 

[Mopardh9]

The drivers have to be wondering what's going to happen when they go over that spot in 3 at 195mph.

Going to be just like the Bud Shootout, essentially that's what is just for more $$$

 

[FenderBumper]

It looks like a chaulk board. They'll run a few laps under yellow to let the drivers test it, but it could get real messy over there. It doesn't look like it has any grip.

 

[Racer1930]

Cars are moving...I thought...maybe not

 

[FenderBumper]

Carl and Kyle may have made the move of the race by brain farting and pulling their tear offs.

 

[VaDirt]

Watch the track just completely rip up the first time the cars go over it

 

[Jeffrey00]

Could you imagine if Dave Blaney came back and won this?

 

[StewartHaas-Gibbs Racing]

Watch the track just completely rip up the first time the cars go over it

Bite your tongue! lol

 

[kkfan91]

fire em up!

 

[Racer1930]

Engines fired

 

[Jeffrey00]

Nice no rain!!

 

[kkfan91]

The cup is half full damnit

 

[Jeffrey00]

So Robby S&Ped. Maybe he should have sold the ride.

I have my fingers crossed, but NASCAR checked it real good. I'm more worried about no grip.........wait, is that stuff coming up already?

 

[HoneyBadger]

 

[Racer1930]

This is a new race...we

 

[StewartHaas-Gibbs Racing]

Montoya would have loved that, then Waltrip would have been the one who crashed into the jet dryer.

JR. sayin its bad

 

[Racer1930]

88 miles to go

 

[Jeffrey00]

Jeff Gluck on twitter saying drivers are saying burned patch feels weird. Kind of like gravel.
