Driver intros

That was incredible.

Not only did the drivers come out to their own songs, but they each got the microphone to speak to the crowd. You’re going to have to find it on YouTube somewhere.

First, Kyle came out and said, “Y’all so love me. I’m ready to win it again” as people booed the crap out of him.

Then Keselowski came out and said, “KYLE BUSCH IS AN ASS!”

The crowd went freaking nuts. Loudest cheer I’ve ever heard at a NASCAR event.

Allmendinger added fuel to the fire by saying, “I hope I’m ahead of Brad and Kyle when this all goes down tonight!”

Then Stewart said, “Unlike Allmendinger, I don’t hope I’m ahead of it, because I want to be around to see a hell of a wreck!”

Crowd went nuts.

AWESOME intros.

Jarrett said if he were Keselowski (who is on probabation) that he would have gone to KyBu’s motorhome after last night’s race and punched KyBu in the face and then say they were even.

Quick Question

I’m going to be in Daytona area in late January (25th) is it worth making a trip to see the track or do you think there won’t be much to see?

by YarkerMommy on Aug 21, 2010 8:18 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yeah if you are a fan you have to do it

by Len_DiJoseph on Aug 21, 2010 8:20 PM EDT up reply actions  

Not sure what it will look like in January

I believe the 25th of January would be after the Speedweek Intros where the drivers are there and all..check back for dates at daytonainternationalspeedway.com because the Driver interviews they have are DEFINATELY worth checking out if you’re in the area. You can currently view the progress of the track from some designated grandstands but they were already closed about an hour ago when I drove by.

by jstagrl28 on Aug 21, 2010 8:21 PM EDT up reply actions  

Thanks so much

that’s exactly what I was wondering. I would hate to be there & then not to be able to get in or see everything. I’m going to be renting a car from port of the cruise ship & wanted to make the trip.

Confession

I’m a half-assed NASCAR fan. I’ve always picked and chose what races I want to watch with skipping a lot of the races. Not this year, the racing has been incredible this year prompting me to watch all the races.

Commercial

How the hell can they take a commercial right now?!?!?

by BoggsofHazard on Aug 21, 2010 10:11 PM EDT reply actions  

Because....

restarts and lead changes are not important to the viewer.

Commercial

Are you serious? Another freakin’ commercial? C’mon?!?! Where the hell is the race?

by Holly Hedgepeth on Aug 21, 2010 10:11 PM EDT reply actions  

This is why I dislike watching racing on network T.V. All the dang commercials.

by Holly Hedgepeth on Aug 21, 2010 10:17 PM EDT up reply actions  

Ugh

Another commercial

Sorry about the commercials

I’ll let you know if anything goes down.

by Jeff Gluck on Aug 21, 2010 10:17 PM EDT reply actions  

this is horrible!

I need to see the race please!

by Sebring88 on Aug 21, 2010 10:17 PM EDT reply actions  

Happy

Like always, Harvick has somehow managed to make it into the top 15. He who brought attention to the horseshoe may just have stolen it as well.

Can’t tell if it’s more commercials or if Bristol is such an exciting track that we’re all paying more attention throughout the race.

by Rob Wright on Aug 21, 2010 10:18 PM EDT reply actions  

they go to commercial when the racing gets good…it is crazy or they do a stupid replay! uggghh so frustrating

by Sebring88 on Aug 21, 2010 10:20 PM EDT up reply actions  

They just start getting bad

It’s one commercial break after the other and it sucks because the race is winding down.

Hopefully...

All of these commercials now mean that there won’t be any for the last 20 laps.

Wish Jamie could’ve won

I do if I want to see my sister on TV. I’ll just pretend he’s not there, LOL.

Normally I’d just change the channel, heh.

by Rob Wright on Aug 21, 2010 10:35 PM EDT up reply actions  

Awesome!

She’s such a sweet person. I met her at the Switchfoot concert back in May. Met Russell too.

by Karla Figueroa on Aug 21, 2010 10:36 PM EDT up reply actions  

That’s awesome! I’m so proud of them.

by Rob Wright on Aug 21, 2010 10:39 PM EDT up reply actions  

I already muted my tv and am close to changing the channel.

I don't like him...

But, the dude can drive. JD Gibbs and Joe are awesome people. Congrats to their organization.

And he is pretty funny – I think he just did 10 bows.

I can’t imagine there’s a lot of applause’s?

Jamie Mac

Hey after the race J-Mac 13th man would love to see him get in would be a great dark horse to win..

by Len_DiJoseph on Aug 21, 2010 10:43 PM EDT reply actions  

Jamie Mac has passed Martin

But Bowyer is 100 points over Mac.

Bowyer

Had a hell of a race tonight (and last night). He will be tough to catch if he keeps it up.

Jeff.. you really need to wave at the camera in the media center. And if thats Jenna next to you she does to! lol. Speaking of her… did she just hit you in the head again like she tweeted she would? lol.
