hmmm really the last time I was really interested in Nascar before everything was equalized so much.

Danica has little chance. only 20% of Daytona winners come from the pole. I'm pulling for the 42 like always, hope he doesnt hit the track dryer this year.

Greg Biffle, Because he's local and I've had the pleasure of meeting him and his family quite a few times when they used to own J & S Steel. He's always been a solid guy. Danica starting on the pole doesn't really mean anything, as mentioned before. I would be suprised if she leads 5 laps during the whole race. Yesterdays crash was crazy.

I'd like to see Patrick do it, first because it'll be a first time for a woman. And it will hopefully silence (or at least dampen) all those chuckleheads talking crap about her all the time. Other than that, Kayne's a local guy too, which would be nice to see. Wouldn't mind Johnson winning it. I'd love to see him pull of another bunch of series wins, really put things out of reach for current drivers.

I would like to see Danica win but k have a feeling it's going to be Dale Jr
I have a bunch of friends from drag racing/stock car racing backgrounds and the all have an opinion. Most of the stock car guys hate merely cause she's a woman and has had success. Many think she's arrogant, (those are the fans of Dale Earnhardt Sr.) Who was the most self serving arrogant prick I ever had the chance to meet.
But we drag racers are mostly rooting for her. Guess we've had many women through the years do pretty well on the Strip. My favorite was the "Dragon Lady" of the late 60s Shirley Shahan. Long before a real arrogant bitch Shirley Muldowny came along.
This Shirley's hubby was the master mind behind all the really fast early funny cars. Sox & Martin, Butch Leal, Dick Landy, & that entire era of early altered wheel base cars. Shirley got bored being around the races all the time and not getting to participate so her hubby, I think Neal was his name built her a B/S 440 NHRA door car and she proceeded to embarrass a lot of guys for a long time.
Sadly that great time in drag racing history faded when funny cars became "FUNNY FUEL CARS" with custom frames and fiberglass bodys. Thanks to Don Nicholson's first Comet in 1966
Sorry for getting off line there.

20% shot from one position of a field of 43 is actually pretty good odds. Much better than most other starting positions.

Good race overall. Was happy to see Jimmie Johnson get the double-U.

When I used to watch Nascar consistently, I was a Kasey Kahne guy, pretty cool considering he's from WA (Eumclaw or something like that I believe right?). I actually used to go to Talladega twice a year. Those superspeedways are insane when the cars are going by.

Why? He's not a punk asshole. Just a quiet, unassuming guy that doesn't showboat, get mad, create scenes, or anything other than just win. How is that not cool?

I like Jimmy Johnson more than I care about racing.
I love domination and he has done it. My old boss loved Harvick so I always was rooting for Kyle Busch or Jimmy Johnson.
