Predictions

Well as you all know the big race is about to start in a little bit, so I'm wondering who you guys are thinkin' will win it? I'm thinking that as much as I dislike the guy I think it will Harvick who takes the flag.

P.S lets keep this one civilized, don't bash somebody for their pick

Oh yeah, you would say that after picking Harvick.

Just kidding. I don't have a horse in this race. NASCAR just doesn't appeal to me.

Not likely, but I hope Michael Walthrop does well.

No favorite - my son likes the M&M's car - "Melts in your mouth, not your hand". O just like a good race. I prefer F-1 or Gran Prix, AFTER MONSTER TRUCKS !!

That did suck the same way it has since they put those restictor plates on. I wished they'd stop running Daytona and talladega alltogether. Nothing but boring and dangerous for the driver's.

Ain't that the truth, especially after the way Bowyer finished the race.

I just found him to be a good and honest driver i guess. I 'm a total ford fan so of course i cheer for them. I like carl edwards and dave gilliand. I guess i'll cheer for them next even though i still really like martin. Just wrong brand now. But he's still a good driver. Looking forward to a great season this year. I think i might start fallowing the craftsman truck series a bit this year. Good luck to you all this year!!

This was the worse race ever, passing was allmost impossible, boreing is right. I thought Mark had it, those Roush boy's wasn't going to spoil it for him, then here comes Harvick out of nowhere on the outside and it looked like Matt was pushing him, unbelieveable. The bright spot was the 38 car, it looks like Yates finally has a racer.

how about when busch swerved up to the wall on the final lap and almost pinned harvick into it, if he did that it would have caused a huge pile up..........go around that corner and busch spins out and causes a pile up anyway.......there has definately been some way better races in the past, the first 3 quarters of the race was boring, the last 50 laps were interesting.

tony showed some class when asked about what happened, knowing tony i expected him to blow up on the air.....i guess he must have seen himself the last few years on tv this last offseason.
