The race was good. I wish someone else would have won. Just glad the tornadoes didn't land directly on us in the camper.

I'm not a fan of having drivers marry up to race.

Only like that on the plate tracks. I like it BTW. Better than 43 drivers marrying up together to race like with the old COT.

I don't think the two car draft will last forever. I think as the pavements at Daytona and Talladega start to wear out and get bumpy it will be harder for the guys to stay together like they are right now.

There were some amazing saves today by Ryan Newman and Dave Blaney. Kurt Busch should have been black flagged for all the wrecks he caused today.

Some of the guys are just really bad pushers/bump drafters. I'm sure Tony Stewart is thanking Nyan Newman for saving him some $$$ out there today.

IT was a good race, really enjoyed it. Wish Gordon and Martin wouldnt have left the bottom open for JJ and JR I like the 2 car racing, makes it alot more interesting and i think they said 85 lead changes today . Im sure Kurt Busch had to much Bare Bond on his front end, thats why he was spinning everyone , I like when they showed Ryan Newmans Team putting grease on the rear bumper, talk about some smart rednecks

Did Smoke even race today? I didn't see him hardly at all.

Listening to Junior and Johnson all day on the race scanner was pretty cool, those guys are pretty darn funny. Pretty cool of Jimmie to give Junior the checkered flag too.

How about Junior third in points right now too! I thought he was a talentless s.o.b. livin off his daddys name who was washed up and needed to retire? hows that crow taste haters!
