    I saw him do a save that they say most drivers couldn't do and I agree with that.

    Gatorade Duel this afternoon - 2:00 EST. Check you local times.

    Might be a couple good 150 mile races - or a double crash fest if the 'boys' haven't figured out they can't bump/push in the corners

    From the talk on the HUB this week, it would seem most have ruled out hitting someone off center---but for those who have to race their way into the 500, I don't think driving conservatively will be part of the race plan!!!!!

    I saw in one of the papers that "they've" renamed the big race to the Danica 500 or another one was Danicapalooza! Here comes the circus! LOL..

    Well Patrick proved her toughness in this crash today.

    Danica Patrick endures a heavy crash at Daytona, proving her toughness in the process - NASCAR - Yahoo! Sports

    Now she needs to prove her driving skills on the 500 coming from near the back of the pack,

    Smoke won the 1st race, Kenseth won the 2nd.... Didn't watch the races, just the highlights but from what I saw it was a lot better racing then the Shootout!!!!

    You're right Dave. With this year's mods to the cars it looks like the cars are somewhere between the pack style of a few years ago, and the tandem style of the last couple, and these guys are starting to figure it out better. Still, the 500 will probably be 450 miles of round and round, and then start getting dicey the last 50 or so.

    Yeah, but always the same story; In order to finish first, you must first finish! Curious now to see if it becomes the old 2 pack race again---450 miles of trying to position yourself where the big wreck isn't, then 50 miles of trying to win it!!!! With the shorter rear spoiler the cars all seem to be a bit on the loose side, probably why the old dirt trackers could have an edge on Sunday....

    Danica was doing great for herself 'til she got clipped on the right front. Oh well, last lap desire to improve by everyone knocked her out.

    The BIGGEST Nascar race of the season, you can bet it's on Network TV! Check your area listings.

    My vote for most hilarious headline of the week: Vickers says he's just waiting for right 2012 option

    Translated into plain english, that probably means his phone hasn't exactly been ringin' off the hook.
