Daytona 500

[Monkey]

So I’m at the Daytona 500 today and was shocked to hear anounced during the pre-race speaches, “We would like to welcome from the Howard Stern Show , Ronnie the limo driver, Scott Salem, and Schuly Hagar”. No context from the anouncer and no mention of Sirius.

Was any one else there today and heard the same thing?

Anyway it was a good race.

And how did the crowd respond?!

 

[SofaQueue2]

Danica ended her career just like I suspected she would

Sterling Marlin, Ricky Rudd, and Michael Waltrip were my favorites back in the day.

Ricky Craven went to my High School, he's known for surviving the greatest Talladega crash ever and also winning the closest finish ever against a Kenseth, forget which one, but it was at Darlington

Wow she is little! Was it a bad crash?! Looks like you had a good view of it!

I was in turn 4 the crash was between turn 3 and 4 so I had a great view. She stoped right in front of my seat. Yea she is a very small person, the helmet makes her look even smaller.

I've never been able to figure out how Danica made it so far with mediocre driving talent. Many far better and just as hot (or hotter) female drivers in this world. It probably would have been Erin Crocker if she hadn't decided to start banging and eventually marry her car owner. She was the first and maybe only woman to win a World of Outlaws sprint car race. I'm sure with a ton of makeup and little clothing, they could make her look as sexy as they make Danica look. Danica isn't even pretty without being all made up.

Is nascar still a thing?

Is nascar still a thing?

The big track in my area (Dover) has giant swaths of empty seats every race. 10 or 15 years ago, you couldn't find an empty seat. In 2008, race attendance was 133,000. In 2012, it was 85,000. It has dropped a bunch since then.

Daytona has pulled 50,000 seats from their facility.

NASCAR was a successful fad, but it's over.

I'm surprised that Scott's black cloud didn't make it rain after his name was announced.

How did the black dude do?

How did the black dude do?

Came in second

"The King comes up and he was all mad at me"



Dude finished second, the King needs to calm down

 

[SofaQueue2]

It probably would have been Erin Crocker

Erin has admitted that she went to Busch too soon, but the sponsor was there and she was pressured into it

You know what they say about hindsight

 

[Honkey Donkey]

That’s nothing , I saw this race as a kid believe it or not

Danica can now concentrate on her soon to be unsuccesful TV career.

Nice nip though.

I was at talladega that day. He was caught in the top of the fence with cars going under him.

Her entire career summerized by 1 picture.

Came in second

That’s cool. I read an interview with him. He seemed like a good guy and he can drive. It would be cool for a driver, regardless of color make 43 a factor again.

 

[KarmaPolice]

I’ve been to a NASCAR race and the Indy 500 3 times. You can’t see shit at Indy but it is a hell of an experience. Everybody should go once.

How good was your view?

That's one of the only modern crashes that really makes you wonder how the hell he even lived...i've watched all the real bad wrecks from the ''Bobby Allison era'' on youtube, and some of those are just putrid. Ricky's wreck was in that old school category
