Don't really like the result but there was some good racing in this one.

No caution in the final 15 laps is also something you don't see very often at Daytona.

 

[Brentford]

I honestly don't know how to feel or what to think. I just can't rate this thing, but I'm interested to see what everyone else says.

8. for the entertainment and show it was while the gimmick points system was front and center all weekend. Game 7 moment of a driver racing his way into the playoffs is what this is all about. I will say Daytona during a summer day is whole different beast, wish we could see more of it

6 for the race,

0-For the points system, where it doesn't matter how mediocre you are throughout the season, if you can back into a win through dumb luck, you get to race for the championship

10 - for Nascar getting the entire race in

0 - for the wreck fest.

And as usual AD had to hit and knock someone out of the way to win at Daytona, what a silver spoon wannbe dirt bag, but he gets a pass from everybody.
One of these days AD will win a race straight up, NOT! Never happen.

6. County fair demo derby type of **** show, entertaining as hell and even dumber

7.0. Hard to rate the race but there were some short periods of good racing but they were interrupted by yet another crash. Just glad NASCAR waited to dry the track and get in a legitimate racing finish. Dillon wasn't the best car today but he definitely was the luckiest.

Got to give Nascar credit for finishing the race.

I think you'd have to consider it a race first in order to rate it

Wonder what the over/under is for a wreck in the last 5 laps. The race is exciting to watch, but I really dislike the carnage that always occurs at the end. If they make the final 10 laps under green I will go for a 10 race rating.

Dang it...I have to give it a 10.

I thought it was awesome up until Briscoe, and then the rain, wrecked the field.

6 overall considering the weather delays, the big wrecks, and the lackluster finish

0. Hamlin got screwed. NASCAR ****** this up, and Scott Miller says nothing could have been done. bull****. The best car didn't win, the officiating was an embarrassment, and once again we have a **** show. I am ****** pissed.

Letting guys barrel into Turn 1 at 200 mph in a rain shower....I give NASCAR credit for not one ****** thing tonight.

The 'best' car rarely wins a plate race. Indeed, how do you determine the 'best' car in the first place? Field position is dependent on the favors or tolerance of others.

2. Typical superspeedway s*** show with NASCAR adding the layer of screwing the pooch big time. Only reason I didn't give it 0 was that they waited out the rain and actually finished it despite the booth gerbils' pleading.

 

[Tony_K]

0. I got 0 pleasure from watching this.

7, crazy race...lol

6, same thing I give any plate race.

Fair point, but it's my rating, so I will go with whatever criteria I see fit as there is no official metric. Best car is defined as a car which in the hands of a great driver can be taken to the front to win. Denny Hamlin had no peer, and he didn't need anybody--everybody gravitated to him just like Junior. The only thing that beat Denny was the officiating.....but Scott Miller though.....BS.

Blaney and Truex both deserve to be in the playoffs, but it is what it is, and my dude made it.
Has the Blaney luck finally changed????
