Vote.

I voted 9, it was a crazy 10 days or so, great racing, awesome crashes, great winners, but that finish at the 500 leaves me with a bitter taste, so -1.

Fuck Greg Biffle.

7. Pretty entertaining speedweeks all up and impressed with what NASCAR has done to improve the show in all series, unfortunately a bit of a lame finish to the 500. Hope Nationwide and CWS continue at this standard for the rest of the season.

8. Fantastic and bizarre. The finish and the racing to the actual 500 was a little disappointing though.

10, even with the end the 10 was very well deserved after the Montoya incident and the other races. And the finish was somewhat something unexpected. It's Biffle's fault that 1 car got away clean. Where was everyone else trying to make a 2 car draft?

8. Thoroughly entertaining. Just let down by a lame finish in the 500, and the ARCA boys were pretty tame as well.

I took an average...

Shootout - 9/10
Twin 150's - 8/10
Truck Race - 10/10
Busch Race - 10/10
Daytona 500 - 6/10

TOTAL: 43/50 = 8.6 Average, rounded up to a 9/10 for Speedweeks (only counting the NASCAR sanctioned events.)

As others have mentioned, this was probably one of my favorite speedweeks up until the Daytona 500. I'd have to give that a failing grade, due to all the delays and it amounting to a very disappointing finish with Biffle dragging the brake. It was great to see pack racing back. ARCA and Busch had amazing finishes. Busch and Trucks had great first-time winners. (Especially John King. I mean, what the heck? I didn't even know who he was before the race.) We also had a handful of memorable moments and accidents. Great racing for the most part. Nobody hurt aside from the jet dryer driver taken to the hospital. But in the end, the Daytona 500 was a bit of a turd on a nice sundae of races.

8/10!

Are you guys serious? Mediocre as fuck.

Fuck Greg Biffle. Fuck the rules package.

Be rational and think about this for a week. Worst Speedweek that I can remember.

Before the last 40 laps of the 500, would've been a 10. After the fuckfest of shit towards the end, 8. Was thoroughly entertained by just about every race this last two weeks.

Plenty of interesting and bizarre things during Speedweeks this year. Gave it a 7... wish the 500 had ended better. I'd been happy if they called it with Blaney leading.
