Leaving tomorrow around noon for Daytona,

That's 11PM for me. It'll be like watching a F1 race from Asia.Not staying up for Duel 2 at like 2am?

LOVE they are doing it at Bristol. It is, I believe, the smallest track they go to so makes sense they would do it there.I am so out of touch with this sport. I had no clue about them tossing down dirt at Bristol until I heard Clint and Jeff talking about it late in yesterday's broadcast (which I watched all of like 12 minutes of). I suppose I get the novelty of racing on dirt, but what I don't get is why such an iconic track as Bristol? Will they be racing outlaw type cars, or the base car with some possible tire and splitter mods? Lastly, will there be "ringers" like road courses (does a guy like Tony Stewart still race anything and everything and could he be in the field)? I suppose NASCAR accomplished what they are looking for here as I am intrigued and will likely watch at least some racing all weekend (as I see several drivers are racing multiple events all weekend).
They are finally getting smart in trying different things rather then the same old race schedule.. Many "Road courses" this year, plus this is adding some excitement back.. If only they could look to make changes to the Cookie Cutter 1 1/2 mile tracks ( Vegas, Texas, Kansas, Atlanta, etc.) to make them more exciting.I feel like they chose Bristol strictly because of the precipitous fall off in the Spring race attendance. We'll see how it goes today.

Way better than the truck raceThe Nascar race was a blast to watch and already decided that next year will be dirt again.![]()
There was a 20 minute period where, due to the sun setting, the drivers couldn't see anything. thought for sure they would red flag it until the sun set. At one point Busch could be heard on the Radio " I can't see a bleeping thing.. I can't even see the car in front of me! ".. Then they showed a view from behind one of the drivers.. They were completely blind on that one stretchThat was fun to watch, but probably sucked to be a driver though
I'm old enough to remember when folks were afraid to wreck the 3 car
Yeah, really wanted to attend this year, but things just didn't work out. Was a hot one any way.Great finish at MIS
Been to a lot of races over the years at MIS and hadnt watched one that exciting right up to the finish in many years. Great day in Brooklyn today.Great finish at MIS
Kyle is such a piece. When he wins its I drive hard, I drove smart.. Me, me, me!!
He crashes/loses .. My team sucks, they can't figure anything out.. They, they, they!
Was fun listening to the crowd cheering when he crashed out![]()
It's just a fancier version of plates lolLFG!!! (A rain-shortened, plate track) Bump for Bubba![]()
ETA: I know they don't use plates anymore
The fantasy league site looks like it's going to be back up before Daytona. I'll revive the league if there's interest.
No idea who won last year.
