The double file restarts would have been exciting to watch, but NASCAR made the AMP Energy 500 boring, because of the no bump-drafting in the turns, rule.
It looks so impressive when they are 3 wide like at 4:25 . Talladega is the best..it owns Daytona!! Put some lights on Talladega and lets have a night race there..that would be so awesome!!
and the COT helps a lot with the drafting, i play with Nascar Heat (COT mod) and you get to the front very fast, but when you lose the draft or you get stuck in the outside lane, back you go lol. The bump drafting in that game works nicely.
Look anywhere from 22-27. I know it's just a shot from Kahne's Bud car but very few, if any, would have guessed the driver in front of that Bud car (black w/ rookie stripe) would have a BIG pt. in the oucome of this race. (Don't want to spoil the ending for those who haven't watched it, yet...)
dont mean to nag but is there any way you can reupload it with better quality

3:51-4:09, who would have thought that was the future of restrictor-plate racing.

they should put a night race here so the aarons 499 or the amp energy/amp energy juice 500 should be a night race

Only about 40 laps were single file. It still was a great race.

Daytona's my home track so I might be a little biased but I'd say they're both equal.

nascar has been discussing it. if the night race at atlanta is successful tonight then we'll see lights at talladega by fall2010 or spring 2011

@XXYYZZ10 You're correct.I'm not trying to be negative here,but I like it when they're four or five wide.

Didn't take Dale Jr very long to get to the front, eh? Man, he is one hell of a drafter.
