What are you going to be doing on Sunday 2/17 at 2:30
 

My wife and I will be watching the Daytona 500...……...:D

At the track or on tv?


:)

TV John, We were there in person at the 2015 race.

Enjoy it for me, please!!!
I dumped dish in December, currently have no TV service (it really does not bother me, I went from 2010-2015 with zero TV...)
I am recouping from kidney stone surgery. Lol, the Percocet may interfere with MY reception...I am doing VERY well though! Thank Yoy, Lord!!!

Won't miss it!Tom

I will be in my garage working on my '69 Prix.....but with my door open I can hear all the action. One of the perks of a Daytona zip code!

Napping.

I'll be DVR'ing the race as we'll be at the Minnesota Wild game. We have a partial season ticket (weekends only) and this was part of our package.

I"ll also be celebrating my birthday after the game at "Herbie's on the Park" (nspired by the legacy of Herb Brooks & the Minnesota Club, Herbie's on the Park is the quintessential social house) at the Whiskey and Wine with the Wild charity event hosted by Wild forward Zach Parise.

I'll have to watch the race tomorrow when we get home from St. Paul.

A buddy will be glued to it.

I however will be preparing to attend a hatchet throwing event at a brewery. Or not.

excellent suggestion!

I love Daytona! Theres a pizza joint on rt 1 (I believe) in port orange. Its a big Pitt Steeler place (not a fan) but their pizza is on my top 10 list.

I will try to watch the race. Wife is not a fan so I will probably have to hide out in the bedroom. I always get excited for the 500, but by about the 3rd week of the season have little interest in it. Also, did they change something? I was watching qualifiers and they were driving supras and mustangs! I thought they were running 4 door cars. Bout time they got something realistic.

Rules change over the off season, the Thursday night dual races there was very little passing except for the last lap. Sometimes when they make aero changes it takes the drivers time to get used to how the cars handle with a different aero package. Many times I've seen the 500 be much different than the preliminary races proceeding the 500. I hope it proves out like that today.

Shows how long it's been since I've watched a NASCAR race...I didn't know they were running Mustang bodies these days.

That's new this season, Chevy had camaro last year.

The big ones coming!

Couple rookies take out 2 front runners on pit road.Sucks

At 2:30 today I was out taking a hike, just me and my pup. Enjoying a nice sunny, late February day in New England.

One hell of a pileup.

We could see the same thing next week at Atlanta with the new rules!Tom

I'd mutch rather watch an NHL game than NASCAR.
I watched the first half of that game on NBC's hockey night. They were down 0-4 by that time. Then my older brother came home so I switched it to the (once) great American race.
The Rangers vs Penguins game was better.

%*$#&@! 55 mph speed limit. I've been saying for years they ought to be allowed to go full bore anytime the race is under green.

%*$#&@! restrictor plates. %*$#&@! NASCAR overtime makes for a repeat performance and the last 10 laps dragging out over forty minutes.

Looks like the same stuff that's been going on since the early 2000s.

You're much better off watching football and hockey, keep up the good work.

Fella said the Daytona 500 16 car pileup toward the end made a messed-up race.

Long axe handle was a success to throw. Short axe handle was real difficult to land into the wood wall.


I don't think the axe throwing is going to be a thing, a league, but maybe it could be the tie breaker in darts.

Went to a friends house in Colora MD, wives were included. Everyone paid $10 for 3 numbers drawn from a hat. Last place paid $10, first place won the pot. Made for a fun afternoon, even the ladies paid attention the last 30 laps.

I mean really thats essentially the same thing as watching NASCAR. I was a fan as a kid, but anymore all the cliches about it just seem true. Whole buncha turnin left etc.... I like racing so I would like to be a fan, but man its just not interesting anymore. I cant even tell you what it is exactly. Other than I wish they would race real cars.

Bob, you probably drove right past my house!

Do they still have that clown say boogity-boogity at the start?

Well Jaws is one of the commentators this year, what do you think?...…………..LOL

Pull them seat belts tight, Let's go racin boys, boogity boogity boogity…………..:)
