Well I was hoping that Mark Martin would win and darned if he didn't almost do it. I still can't find one of the batteries out of the remote control after I threw it to the floor. My exact words were "son of a -----!!!!" while "spiking" the remote. I had hoped the other drivers would give Mark a little slack and give him his first Daytona 500. Of course, this one is the "SuperBowl" of NASCAR and everyone wants it. I'm sure this was the closest Daytona 500 ever.

I don't like him either. It was strange that he got on the outside and slipped by everyone. Mark deserved to win this race, and I think the Roush guys who used to be his teammates were going to help him win it. He may never get another chance like this.

Just got back from a "post Daytona 500" dinner at Cracker Barrel.

I'm again pretty tired from another day at the track, but here is something to whet y'alls appetite:

My son & I on the actual start/ finish line at Daytona:

I've posted a video too, but it isn't showing on the list yet.

I am glad you had such a great time...
The race sucks... because my guy Biffle got wrecked by little bush, (shrub). Of course any Ford win would have been great. 16, 17,99, 26, 38 all had strong cars and could have won.
Another bad day at Daytona...
Only good thing was seeing the 20 and 48 go out early.

Great to hear you had a good time. I really think I would have been a slap to the face for Roush if Martin won. I think he was yelling at Kenseth to push Harvick past. Roush has never won the 500 as an owner so he would have been pissed if his ex driver won with out him. Just my 2 cents.
