Both Daytona races were let downs. It was riding around in the same position for 350 miles. The new pavement and lack of ability to push someone for more than 50 ft. make it almost impossible to pass on the outside.
But this race will be amazing. I'm also excited for the second Pocono race in a few weeks.
Truth. I forget they race at Pocono twice a year now. I miss the days of N. Wilksboro, Rockingham, and Richmond. Dega in April and July.....meh...

I just like any track that isn't the norm. Phoenix, Pocono, Talladega/Daytona, Indy, and some of the 1.5 mile tracks like Texas, Charlotte, and Atlanta. I'm not that big of a fan of the oval 1.5 and 2 mile tracks. It's basically the same track.
I'm kind of glad they started racing Darlington twice.

I think if Jr. wants to win the Championship he will have to get at least 1 win during the chase especially if Jimmie and Knaus keep it up. I know he's done a good job of avoiding trouble and keeping himself in contention but I don't know if he'll be able to just make it with top 5's.

I chuckled when I heard the people from Andretti say that their entrance to Cup racing was doubtful because they could essentially run 3 IRL teams for the price of one single cup car....
I didn't know there was thatmuch of a price difference.
Penske released Almendinger. I remember Mayfield who got caught up in drugs. Haven't heard of him since.
Mayfield has been in and out of the news around here.. He lives approx 20 minutes from me in Catawba county and has been linked to all kinds of stolen property cases...

For real? That's not dope. Pun intended.
Whatever happened to Ray Evernham Motorsports? They were a pretty decent race team when they had Elliot and then Kahne and Mayfield.
