Advance Auto Parts Clash at Daytona .... 3PM Eastern ..... on FS1 & MRN

[Vaquero]

What is that JEB?

[JEBar]

second red flag for rain ....what we've seen so far is this year's cars = ho-hum single file racing .... Hendrick's cars sure look better this year with the 24 on the inside pole and 88 on the outside pole .... 48 in third and 9 in 4th .... only the first two are locked in

Didn't know they were still running that any more.
Well the 48 just took the whole field out.
Never liked him

[JEBar]

17 laps to go, red flag again for rain ended the race .... 17 out of 20 cars in a wreck at the end .... Johnson won ...

[Vaquero]

May it be his only win this year.

Sure don't like the way Jimmie won that one.

[JEBar]

The race-winning No. 48 Chevrolet of Jimmie Johnson passed post-race inspection Sunday at Daytona International Speedway .... The No. 1 Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet of runner-up Kurt Busch also passed inspection, and the cars of third-place Joey Logano, fourth-place Ryan Blaney and fifth-place Alex Bowman all got looks as well.

good to see the top cars running within the rules

Ok, it's the big day.
Who's watchin the 500 today?

Me I'll catch some of it but, I'm not the fan I used to be.
Would like to see ole Rowdy take the Checkers.

we are camped in a rural area of Texas Hill Country where there isn't an over the air FOX signal .... I do hope to follow it on a computer .... I do find it the apparent contrast in how long it took last season for Chevy teams to dial in the Camaro and how quickly the Ford teams seem to have dialed in the Mustang

Almost did it, came in 2nd.

[Cowboy Gun Fan]

What a race.

Sure was a wreck fest.

Only 3 cars without damage the whole day.

Congrats to Denny Hamlin on an emotional win for the Joe Gibbs team.

Gibbs cars finished 1, 2 and 3.

Kyle Busch 2nd, Erik Jones 3rd.

I wasnt impressed. If I would have paid big money to watch a race like that I would feel cheated. Restrictor plates are still and will always be a joke in my book.

[The Wiz]

It wasn't a race....it was a crash. Just reinforces my opinion of NASCAR. Here is a thought from my son. If those cars weren't so safe in a crash maybe those drivers would be more cautious. Something to thing about.

Yep, they sure wrecked a lot of cars. Name of the game is just to finish if you can in one piece. Denny needed a win and I am surprised that Kyle didn't try to wreck him. Maybe Kyle is growing up. I still think he's the best driver out there.

[RetiredSeabee]

When Bush took the lead near the end of the race I figured it was his race to win or lose. Then when he chose to restart on the inside it became his loss. Bad decision bit him in the backside.

[Vaquero]

Cooper, I agree, I think he has more car control than any two other drivers in the field.
I do believe he let Denny win, they wanted the 11 to win for JD.
You could tell in his interview that he wasn't crazy about it.
He's maturing, and I'd take him over any of the others, hope he gets another Championship this year.

One reason now why I like him like I do and I credit his wife on that. I believe she really made a better person of him. He's an old school type racer. He can also drive. He can handle a poor running car right up there with the best of them.
