Did anyone else notice that Richard Childress won his second Daytona 500 exactly six years TO THE DAY after Dale Earnhardt's death?

Did anyone else notice that Richard Childress won his second Daytona 500 exactly six years TO THE DAY after Dale Earnhardt's death?
yep?
who'd have thunk that the darkest day turned into the brightest day back for Childress.
not only that, the Finish reminded me so much of Dales last win in his career at Dega going from 16th to 1st in the final 4 laps. Kevin was 30th with 20 to go and was 7th in the final restart with 2 to go. and passed 5 cars in the final lap.
truely amazing. but Kyle almost wrecked Harvick going into turn 3, he tried to block harv but Harv was no way in letting up for that
Maybe it was the guy that said, "Hey, this would be a good race for Childress to win at".Quote:

It's nice to know the thought of winning a fixed race doesn't bother you.

seriously, how hard would it be to fix a restrictor plate race? ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE
He obviously didn't...
But even if Nascar had thrown the caution the millisecond that the 5 went sideways, guess what? The 29 was AHEAD of the 01 when that occured.....then the 01 edged ahead being in the low line (shorter distance) but the 29 repassed him (more momentum)....
So, either way, the right car won!
yeah ok the race was almost fixed, Harvick got a tremendous push from Kenseth, the top 5 was trying to protect the bottom so Harvick, Kenseth, and Burton all shot to the top and passed everyone, and Kyle almost ran Harvick into the wall.Quote:
