The 55th Daytona 500

I am the champ! How ya like the view of my tailpipe?
Or at least I am the champ until next week when Clevalley takes the lead and runs away with it for the season.

I'd be surprised if NASCAR wasn't taking an extra look at that car.

I turned OFF race at Checker Flag ! I refused to watch Darth Johnson & that Hendrick organization celebrate a WIN . It seems now they had to CHEAT to win , AGAIN

I wonder how many folks were :angry: about the flyovers this weekend.
"They're gettin' ready to lay off Federal Workers but they can still afford THIS?" Just one of the comments I've heard since Sunday.

Just heard the Toyota engines were failing because they were set up for 500km instead of 500miles.

Not only did she finish the race, she did it in the top 10. No matter what happened during the race, she did finish in the top 10. I say kudos to her!

Danica did a really good job - much better than I thought she would for sure.

There wasn't a flyover before the Daytona 500.

From my understanding, the flyovers are done during routine test runs and don't actually cost anything more. Maybe some of the military brains on here can elaborate.
