*** Official Daytona 500 thread ***

Nascar is so messed up they have their biggest race of the year first

Hate to admit it but you have to get peoples attention somehow. Though no one really cares about the NBA until post season, so generate some excitement (for nascar) at the beginning and the end with the points race (although I deplore the 10 race chase, little france has just ruined nascar for me).

Not even FB so much. I drool over College Basketball, and pass the remaining time with baseball.

I guess w/ baseball you dont have to be born into your abilities you can roid into them. LOL. Ill watch anything just about but Ive always loved working on cars so Nascar still holds a spot for me even though the last 5 years have been terrible.

How many times does the championship come down to whoever wins the last race, though? It's pretty anti-climactic when the champion is determined with a few hundred laps yet to go in the final race.
 
My future brother-in-law went to school in Daytona Beach. The pictures he uploads to Facebook during 500 week make me extremely jealous. :sad:
 
Do NASCAR drivers wear depends so they can just pee on themselves and not worry about having to go to the bathroom during one of these long 4 hour races?
 
kids, drinking games are fun, but if you take a drink every time they say Danica Patrick's name, you'll be dead before the green-white checkers.

Try just while she's on the track, that should be less than 100 laps.

Did everybody join michaelrr1's fantasy picks group?

all right, gotta go workout quick and be back in time for the start!

Aww, someone's jealous they don't get any attention.

Assuming they aren't 50 year old women 5 hours without ******* shouldn't be a big deal.

Especially in 80* plus weather in a car thats probably over 120* inside. I think keeping hydrated is harder than worry about ******* yourself. That is unless 200mph 1" from your opponent while sliding up to a wall half our of control isnt enough to make you wet yourself.

Although Stewart did mess himself one year while he was racing with the flu, I think he even one that race, though.

it would have last year but Johnson blew an engine. The year before with Edwards and Stewart they ended the race tied in points, so yeah, that one come down to the last lap. Stewart won on the tiebreaker (wins)

naaaaw, I just can't stand all the attention she gets for having boobs and posing for Playboy. I *want* female drivers, but not ones like her. Didn't hear a mention of Johanna Long yesterday and she was in the race longer and finished better than Danica yesterday. Would have done even better except for that crash. It does no good for women in the sport if they can still only become well known due to their sexiness and not their talent.

Have to say I never saw that one coming either, I was really hoping Cousin Carl would win.
 
I Like what Keselowski says about danica, "I dont see a women driver, I see a 30th place driver."

LOL, so true, she sucks and her agenda is pushed by nascar who is DESPERATE for a minority driver (especially a sex symbol).

Jeff Gordon's not enough for you?
 
THAT is how you sing a National Anthem! Didn't make anything up, didn't milk his time, just got it done and sounded good!
 
Boy, Franco sure has been exposed as an A$$hat since he showed his anus at the Academy awards and now this...???
