I'm watching on mute, and I've been running around the office a bit, but is there a reason Danica's average is 5mph slower than the next slowest driver? Not quite a fail of Nur Ali proportions, but I was thinking there had to be an explanation of some kind. |

Love being able stream it. Just like Andre, I'm at work with it on mute and when I get a chance I pop it back up and catch a bit of it. I had a week of vacation time carried over from last year but company rules say I have to take it by March... SO, I took Feb 17-Feb 24 off The cars look so fuckin good. |

She went out later than the first 20-25 cars, Brad K's first lap out this morning at 9AM was 183 as well. Probably just shaking the car down. Also Austin Dillon sitting 5th. |

Is it just me or has NASCAR changed the rear end of the cars since the Charlotte test? It looks like they filled in the shaped rear bumper. |

I read that Michael Waltrip will be running the #30 car at Daytona. |

FHgrad99 wrote: I read that Michael Waltrip will be running the #30 car at Daytona. Yessir. Teamed up with Steve Hmiel and Tony Eury Jr... it's like a DEI reunion of some kind. He also said he didn't want to run his own car, simply due to the fact that it might take away some of the focus from his other teams' efforts. Definitely a fair statement on his behalf. |

Steve Byrnes, who screws up so rarely, said "Danica Stewart" as they were heading to commercials. He immediately realized his error after they came back, and they all laughed, and talked about the bitching on Twitter. Good thing Twitter wasn't around when Ken Squire mis-labeled drivers and cars left and right. I know he's a legend and all, but goddamn, he got a lot of shit wrong on his broadcasts in the 90's. haha |
