    Daytona 500 Thread

    The Daytona 500 is today and David Gilliland is on pole in his first attempt with RYR teammate Ricky Rudd alongside.

    So who do you think will win today.
    I solumly swear I'm up to no good :devil:

    Stewart, Earnhardt, or Gordon. Gilliland and the Busch brothers also have strong cars.
    Racing season is soon upon us!:smokin:

    Daytona is a crapshoot, it will depend on who has the help to get in front coming to the checkered flag.
    There are several fast cars with good drivers wheeling them.
    We can't know who will win until the last lap, restrictor-plate racing is just so unpredicable !

    I picked Johnson because the 48 team is really on their game.
    However Stewart, Harvick, Dale Jr, Jeff Gordon or even Michael Waltrip could win it .....
    There are probably 15 or more drivers that could win today, Daytona is edge-of-your-seat racing.

    of course he will, RCR has changed the attitude of the cars and the Busch race proved that with Bowyer and Harvick.

    I will enjoy seeing Harvick coming up through the field to start dominating the race

    I wouldn't be at all surprised if a 'dark-horse' won the 500 today. While Tony Stewart has had the strongest car all Speedweeks I believe he will come up just short.
    Among the guys who have looked good this week are Gilliland, Rudd, Montoya, Burton and Marlin. The guy who could really surprise everyone though could be Stremme. The #40 car looked really strong in the Gatorade Duel and don't be too surprised to see him in contention at the end.
    Above all lets hope that we have a good and safe race.
    Message to Ganassi - Get Sterling in the #40 full-time. Those were the days.

    I think Stewart could pull it off. But I think one of the geriatric drivers could make it too.

    Ah, the excitement of youth versus the wisdom of age .....

    I could see Ricky Rudd taking that Yates horsepower to Victory Lane .....

    I think it will be Gordon or Johnson, but I'll be really happy if it's Montoya or one of the Toyotas.
