At 5:49 FAIL. It said Scott drove a chevy but he drove a dodge.

The graphic was correct. Scott drove Chevys from 2004 to 2005, and Dodges from 2006 to 2007, and was back in a Chevy for 2008.

I miss BP. He was a great announcer.

That was a really violent wreck. But most people that aren't too much into motorsports wouldn't realize that flips can actually help dissipate the remaining energy from the initial impact with parts flying off it. Correct me if I'm wrong but, I mean it's still a very violent crash. I'm just saying most people wouldn't notice that.

Oh boohoo the drivers hate that big pack racing but the fans love it. For 32 races a year the drivers get to race the boring dingle file couple of car lengths apart racing they do like so I think for four plate races a year they can get over it a put on a good show for the fans...at least until these fucking two car drafts of late now all 36 races blow chunks

4:51 "lets pay off our cingular poll before something nasty might happen" something nasty happened the next lap 5:02 "they think Johnson's gonna win the Daytona 500" and the next year he did

that is creepy

[aflsbrng]

this was the first talladega race i ever watched and this one the first 'big one' i ever saw. i missed the first one because my dad made me go to the store to buy some milk and the newspaper.

@andrew24rocks2: Don't forget though that he also finished 4th at the 2005 Daytona 500. That has to be a highlight as well...

[famousfever2]
