Daytona 500

[GTO Man]

Great to see Matt Kenseth win the Daytona 500. He put himself in a position to win and ended up leading one lap, the most important one.

What do you think of Earnhardt Jr.’s driving?

There are many people upset with Dale Jr., but he was doing what any other driver would do in protecting his position on the track. He was a bit too aggressive, but he was also clearly frustrated in being penalized. Granted, he was outside his pit box and rules are rules, but it couldn’t have been more than 1/2″ or so….

Did you catch the national anthem singer? Talk about HORRIBLE!!!!

Everybody is crying about Jr and his driving, but what about Vickers’ driving? he knew what he was doing when he ran down and took that lane. I’m glad Dale spun his ass out, #3 would’ve done the same thing!!

Ditto…

I saw the race, the pit box thing, OK: it was a violation, but 1 lap is a little harsh

And the accident: He was pushed down onto the shoulder, he was trying to get back behind Vickers. Yes, he sent him out, but he didn’t do it intentionally, people see too much into this stuff, he just calculated where he was wrong.
