Daytona: Coke Zero 400
For once a night race that kept the viewers awake! No falling asleep for this one or you missed one hell of a finish!
I loved TNT’s Wide Open coverage: fewer commercial breaks and many commercials at the bottom of the screen while you could still watch the race in the top 2/3 of the screen. Nice job, TNT.
I hated to see Jeff Gordon get spun on that last restart. I was really hoping he’d find a way to pass Kyle Busch and win his first one this season. I mean, it’s great that he’s sixth in points, but no wins is going to put him way behind Busch and Edwards when they line up for the start of the Chase. At least he had a good car this week; haven’t seen him this excited about his car all season.
What can you say about Kyle? You may not like his attitude, you may not like his racing style, but the kid can drive and the kid can win races! His green car really stands out on the track, making it easy to spot him working his way up through the pack.
Now it’s on to Chicagoland for another night race!
