Not sure on plate size but Toyotas just did 5 laps of tandem draft. 193 mph.

I have no clue on setup but Montoya turned a lap of 188 mph in a single-car run.

That'd be...different.

Can't see them allowing it for plate tracks though, that's right at grille level for the pusher.

I read that Kasey Kahne gave the new car positive reviews. He basically said that the racing should be more exciting and the cars aren't as stable, so that makes wrecks more of a possibility.

Thank fucking God. The stability of the current cars is absolutely killing the racing.

Nice. Here's hopping old Front Row Joe will give it a go this weekend.

I feel a big upset this weekend. I don't know why, it just feels like someone shocking will win.

DEGA baby.....DEGA!

Some teams wanted to run Dodge.

Dodge didn't want to run them.

Maybe Norm Benning can get a hold of the Dodge body at a bargain price and putter around in the Daytona Duel races.

Wait they're moving the exhausts to the rear of the cars and we're NOT worried about dirty air?

Uuhhhhhh I can see this opening a giant kettle of fish...
