I was'nt going to post, but I'm up so I figured why not.
Daytona500---My DaleJr.in the 88 did not win
,he was in the top five all night but he finished 9th after a strange pit call and some sort of radio communication problem,and being shuffled around at the end-I think he did good considering it was pretty much him against the world for most of the race, since his teamates 24-48-5- all had some problems, and his car was'nt as good as he would have liked and not as good as his competitors esspecially the 18 and 20.
The 12 of RyanNewman won the race after getting a push from teammate, the of 2KurtBusch-I don't really have a feeling one way or another about Ryan, so I guess congratulations to him.
I've stated before that I don't really root against anyone-but I have to admit I was totally rooting against KyleBusch(18) I CAN NOT stand him, and after the race instead of being gracious in defeat he blamed Newman and Busch for laying back or something to that effect. Really all drivers have one excuse or another, but you got beat!
I did'nt see any blatant cheating or anything so suck it up. I was hoping the 20 of Tony Stewart would win, just so he could get it out of the way- oh yeah ,and cut his hair.
I find it very interesting that the DEI stable, the 1 of TruexJr. and, 8 of Martin were barely mentioned and when it came to the end they were really no where to be found, I only mention this cuz if I remember correctly Jr. always had them upfront(until the motor would blow) and of course he always got them press, and I barely heard the DEI brand mentioned unless someone was speaking of Jr. leaving the company, or Sr. starting the company-otherwise not much.
All in all it was a good race-certain Nascar web sites I've gone to, fans seem to be complaining/scared that Toyota is gonna take over; seeing as how dodge did today they should be worried about them. It was the first race of the season---here's to the rest===on to California.
And if you might be reading this, but you don't watch Nascar racing-just please try it pick a number or find a list of the drivers and pick one--then just watch and root for your guy I promise it's a good time and you'll become addicted; as I clearly am.
PEACE&LOVE!!
88
good
