iabow Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 How many of you guys were disappointed with the racing today? bone head driving aside. I thought the Busch race was more exciting then the 500 as far as being able to pass and race the leader. Getting along side and passing upfront was tough with this package for the 500. I would like to see some way to increase the drag of the car and bring back some horsepower like the good ole days of racing, where they could sling shot but I don't see things changing. What are your guy’s thoughts on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTF Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Re: Dissappointing 500? I was surprised the 500 was good as it was. No it was not boring or dissapointing IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUDRUNNER Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Re: Dissappointing 500? I thought it was a pretty good race. There were a lot of lead changes,but I wish the outside line would have been a little better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTF Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Re: Dissappointing 500? Hey how about that weather ? I have never seen it so miserable at a cup race. Did you see that fog ? They could'nt even keep the camera lens cleaned off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Yep. The Daytona races in 2004 and 2005 were terrible because of the tires. The outside still isn't good, but I was surprised they didn't just run single file.

Bowhntr Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Re: Dissappointing 500? The race wasn't too bad but I have seen better. I do think they need to do something to make it easier to pass up front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VABuckSlayer Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Re: Dissappointing 500? I thought it was a decent race. Could have been better. I didn't care for JJ winning but oh well. If you cheat good enough you can win! I didn't get to see the Busch or truck race but usually the truck race is my favorite to watch at Daytona.

That outside lane just couldn't do it, the busch race both lanes were moving pretty good from what I saw. I like that areo package, but like it was said it wasn't a 9 of the top 10 ford day race again. Loved the Big Brown Truck commercial with the little boy and his dad .

NS whitetail Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Re: Dissappointing 500? I really thought that Kasey K. had a good chance of finishing top 3 ----- those last couple of cautions kinda screwed things up for him IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
