Daytona 500

Blake Johnson · 2/15/09, 3:36 AM

After a while being away from this board and my blog, it is good to be back. I am working on coverage from the Daytona 500 focusing on our Open Wheelers. My site is www.openwheeler.blogspot.com.

PS: Robin Miller is on Wind Tunnel tonight to talk Open Wheel and to balance out the NASCAR portion of the program.

2 years was far too long for that blog to sit idle. Will the photo galleries be along with the blog as well?

By the way, the G in Gatorade stands for Great Commercial and for god's sakes man, MORE WENDY VENTURINI

I didn't watch much of the racr yesterday but a five lap penalty for Leffler!? Some of the s#!t Kyle Busch pulled last year and Jason gets this.:moon:

It's not like it was even for the lead...it was an accident. What about Todd Bodines bump and run Friday night. No penalty..?

I got more Wendy V for you this AM and yes we will have as many photos as I can fit onto the page. I also am planning on hitting a few IRL and USAC races in person when vacation time allows.

Now, let's see if they do to their golden child (Jr.) what they did to Jason Leffler, yesterday. My guess is no way in hell.

What a joke.nascrap sucks.

Kudos to Brian Vickers for saying what needed to be said. They might penalize him 5 laps in the Fontana race for speaking negatively about Junior and the double standard.

Nascrap is obviously afraid of the riot that would occur should they penalize Jughead like they did Leffler. Even before the crash, it was amazing how much tv time the AMP car got for being so slow.

Can't wait for the real race season to start!

I'm not sure how Jr could have got the free pass when it was just stated yesterday that Leffler could not make up any of his laps for his penalty. I suppose rules don't matter when you're Jr.
