who's gonna win Daytona? - Page 2

Jr. Tries to copy his dad's driving style?? WTF ever. Of course he may do some things like his dad, but ****, if your dad was a 7 time winston cup champion and you got in nascar, wouldn't you pick up on some of his driving styles too?? Hell yeah you would. And about him being a whiny crybaby? Obvisouly you've never met him in person. He is probably one of the best drivers out there, and people don't like to admit that.

JR is the most over hyped guy in sports. All he ever wins is restricter plate races. If the daytona 500 that he won after his dad died wasn't fixed then i must have just had a really bad nighmare. Why doesn't anybody ever say how good kensth is. Lets see came in nascar the same year as jr and won the rookie of the year. Last year all he did was win the most races of any driver. Jr wasn't even in the top ten

How the hell can he be better than everyone else when he can't make the top ten and never has made the top ten. He is not all that good. Besides he drives a chevy that is enough for me to not like him.

Until the get ride of restricter plates on superspeedsways the races will suck.

I was really dissapontied penske switched to dodge. There are less fords this year than in a long time.

oh.....he raced with a bobo on his head. Whoo hoo

Rusty Wallace raced with his eyes to swollen that he had to duck tape them open

Say what you want about Junior, but last year he led:

1369 miles (1st in WC)
59 times (1st in WC)
22 different races (tied with Ryan Newman for 1st in WC)
1068 laps (1st in WC)

Also finished 12th is the points, a system set up to put consistency over wins.

And this was with the lingering effects of the concussion...

He's certainly cocky. But whiny? No more so than any other Cup driver when things don't go their way. Guys ***** about spoiler height and angle from the beginning of Sppedweeks on, or who was the idiot driver who wrecked them. He's got the benefit of funding and name, if I was born into that I'd use it to my advantage too.

As far as copying his Dad's driving style, you can see that Jr. has talent but some of the recklessness that characterized Dale Sr. are more often found in Kevin Harvick and Kurt Busch (the guy who accidently-on-purpose brought out the caution in the Winston last year).

Just had to bust out the laps/miles lednumbers from this year's press guide...Cheers everybody and enjoy the race!

Like i said, he WILL win the Daytona 500. That is if one of those roush cars drive like they have sense and don't try to wreck him.
