Fantasy League?


General

You can enter more than one league. I think JC created last years RR.com league. I'll start one for RR.com if no one else does.

Bud Shootout? More like Dancing with the Stars!


General

Tommy,

I see your point however, I'm not hoping for racing the way it was, I'm want to see racing the way it ought to be, driver against driver. If watching cars get pushed around the track is something we can expect from the super speedways of 2 miles or more I'd rather not watch it and NO, I will not be watching the Daytona 500 if this is what I can expect on Sunday. Again, I'll watch the first few laps and if it's more of the same I will find something better to do with my time.

SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL SHORT TRACK!

Quite the analogies here! I like Bobby's quote from Monte Dutton ""it was a stupid ending to a stupid race..."

That is exactly in line with what I was thinking. After 5 laps I realized that the drivers figured out how to go fast to win and threw out everything we've ever known about stock car racing, that it is the driver's skills along with the team's skills to build fast, good handling cars that win races. Now here it is, the Daytona 500, the SUPERBOWL OF STOCK CAR RACING and all we get to look forward to is 500 laps of 21 cars pushing 21 other cars around the track (one car will be the 3rd wheel)....BORING!!!! Congratulations NASCAR and drivers, you've turned the most exciting race of the year into some silly looking tango. And the 2011 Daytona Dancing With the Stars trophy goes too......Derek Cope perhaps?

I think I'll tinker around in the garage Sunday and maybe, just maybe catch the last 5 laps, I need a good laugh.

What is your take on the 2-car tango at Daytona? Is it a racing or dancing?

RIP JIMMY (PORKY) EDWARDS, JR. CAROLINA DIRT TRACK RACER


General

Sad news in the racing community. I never saw Porky or Chubby race but their racing legacy goes far beyond their fans and competitors. Rest in peace #96 and #48

Now you know why Racers Reunion Will survive if you watched sundays parade in Homestead


Current NASCAR

I for one wish Kevin would have won but now that Jimmie Johnson won it just goes to show how the "Chase" points is a 10 race shoot out, forget the what happened prior to New Hampshire in September, those last 10 races make ya or break ya and Chad Knaus has figured out that if you bet all your chips on the last ten you have the best chance of winning. Jimmie Johnson is #1 again, like or not, he's $5 million dollars richer and all we can do is cheer or complain but Johnson and Knaus are crapping in tall cotton.
