From Tony's site:
And then in the Daytona 500 yesterday, all the accidents/wrecks, cautions, and restarts, including the 17-car pile-up on lap 30, which put my hometown favorite Jimmy Johnson back 20 laps, and the 20-year-old birthday boy Trevor Bayne winning the 500.The .007 of a second margin of victory was the third closest finish in Nationwide Series history and the closest in series history at Daytona since the introduction of electronic scoring in 1993. It was also Stewart’s sixth win in the February Nationwide Series race at Daytona in the last seven years.
I didn't even see the truck races, but they made the top 5 video clips from Daytona, just a great race weekend!!
Watching these guy drafting each other around the track, pushing 195-200 MPH all the way around the track, pushing those cars/engines to the limits - it's new, there are parts I like and parts I don't like about the new style of racing - and it's because of the new Daytona track.
At least not all the other tracks are as smooth as the new Daytona track and guys are going to have to shuffle, mix-it up, rub & bump their way through the pack - rather than running three abreast in a pack of six cars together. It just makes things more interesting.
YMMV
