    I never understood the "crank it up" bit. The cars never sound particularly good. They just seem to be humming along.

    I've almost totally lost interest in this race....the ratings are going to be interesting.

    Seriously... there is so little actual racing going on. It's all commercials, parading around, and Fox promo's.

    Kenseth just clobbered the wall on the front stretch.

    welcome to laps 25-175 of a NASCAR race ;)

    there will be a caution with 10-15 to go, then another right before the end forcing a green/white/checker... :rolleyes:

    You just might have called it. Newman may be out and Montoya has a chance

    Robby's made a career out of peeing in the pool.

    indeed, shame about the 88.

    Wasn't Robbie's fault, IMHO. Tony tried to jump back into a hole that he just wasn't fast enough to fill.

    Nice run for 20-year old Trevor Bayne in the Wood Brothers Ford. Problem is, no more Fords to help him...

    Robby's spin in T2 shuffled the pack, causing the bottleneck.

    he has as much blame as anyone IMO.

    Gilliland, Labonte, Smith in the top 10 as well. good race for the little guys.

    not the most exciting race ever but good to see someone other than Hendrick/Roush/RCR get the glory for a change.

    Kid made me a believer. Kept his nose clean all day, didn't make waves or big stupid moves.

    THAT is how you win the Daytona 500.

    hopefully he gets a full-season ride now.
