I hated the ending, but a good 500 overall. I'll go a 7.5.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

8.5 can’t lift on the last lap. It’s the Daytona ****in 500

But seriously 8 it was good fun, and not inundated by restarts at the end

 

[Efisher131]

3, and not for the winner. Another plate race, another junkyard.

2 due to the finish. I won't look at NASCAR press until next week's race is over.

Another 4 hour plate race that went by in a hurry.

7.5

The new aero package created some good racing. Too many wrecks including the eventual winner dumping the leader. But a product of this type of racing. Overall pretty good race.

I'll go with 7. Taking out half the field on 3 different wrecks took away from it.

I can't rate the race cuz I didn't see the whole thing but I was entertained by what I saw especially seeing I am not crazy about plate races. If I was going to rate the part I did see it was a 7 which I think means a good race. I watched up until the wreck at the end of the first stage and then bailed as I just really don't like the wrecks at plate tracks so instead of watching and complaining I shut er down and did something else. My 2 cents but the part of the race I saw was way better then the twins

I will give it an 8 even though most of my drivers got caught up in crashes. I like the fact that they were racing 3 and 4 wide and not just riding around for most of the race like in the past. This was one of the first races in a few years that I just couldn't leave the tv because I didn't want to miss anything. I would have preferred less crashes and less car carnage but I cant have everything.

 

[Mispeedway15]

7. Too much early carnage affected it, not enough cars left to have multiple lines on the draft led to single file racing for most of the last stage

This stuff is far more difficult than it appears to be on TV.

10 only for the fact that she's finally gone

Hearing she will re-appear at Martinsville and possibly Homestead.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Other than the final stage it was a good one.

A pox on you, Desert Rat.

You would probably have multiple suicides from a few on here if Go Daddy announced a 5 year deal with her. There are at least 3 members here that has let her get into their head so bad that I don't know what they might do.

Daytona? More like Wrecktona...

Was pumped seeing Almirola nearly win the thing, only to see him get taken out blatantly. The 20 year anniversary thing does nothing for me. That's not how you win a race imo.

I'd give it a zero but I'm not taking into account the fact that one of my favorites got flat out wrecked. Man, how nice would've been for Almirola to win the 500.
