No chevrolets ever won at Daytona when 426 Hemi's ran there. Just some Daytona trivia.

I stopped watching NASCAR a few years back. I hate to be such a party pooper but it lost it's a appeal for several reasons. Don't want to get too political here so I'll leave it at that. The cars have also gotten way too far from the old "stock car" days when I could get into rooting for the manufacturer.....Mopars of course.


Facts are stubborn things.

I understand the disillusionment with NASCAR, but it's still motor racing, and I'm addicted to it in pretty much any/every form.
I root against the Toyotas, and typically pull for guys from a Sprint car background and/or proficiency at different types of motorsport.
Mostly a Larson fan, I guess - the kid can win in anything - but a few others also stand out from the rest.
Enjoyed that both Pastrana & Kyle Busch in an RCR Chevy were haulin' butt.
Stenhouse has wrecked so many guys out in years past that I was surprised to see some of them congratulating him.

Travis Pastrana finished 11th. Pretty good for a rookie.

iagree Yep. Just more cookie cutter cars. I miss the days when guys could just build/modify a car.

The cars look a lot better than they did a few years ago. I enjoyed the race but not how it ended, they need to fix that. Also regarding Mopar, Dale jr said they were in talks with 2-3 teams to re-enter and then abruptly got up and left

I mean, yeah, but he also ran a full time Xfinity season, including a top 10 finish at Daytona that year. He was a cup rookie, but it was bizarre the way they acted like he'd never been on track before this weekend.

Understood, I just really like how humble he is. I am happy any time he does well. Some years back, he even sent a hand written personal letter of encouragement to my daughter when she got hurt in a dirt bike wreck.

Can't say I really want anyone or brand in particular to win. Just want to see how it all turns out.

I don't watch regularly. Was unaware they have stage winners and mandatory yellow flags. Does bunch everyone back up which seems to make for good racing, but with the cars being so close in configuration, don't know that it is necessary.

CGI lap of Champions was freaking stupid. Whoever came up with that one should be slapped for so many different reasons. Neat idea, and I'm willing to bet that most of those cars still exist somewhere and it may be possible to create such a parade lap in person. Richard Petty in a Cutlass? Could you have picked a worse representative car for him to be in?!?!?

The 2023 NASCAR season will be the first without a team bearing the Petty family name.

Petty GMS Racing announced Wednesday that it was changing its team name to Legacy Motor Club. The name change comes after seven-time Cup Series champion Jimmie Johnson joined the team’s ownership group at the end of the 2022 season.
