Thanks for the heads up

Watching this Daytona test, cars sure unstable when drafting

**Optional** · 01-10-13, 06:25 PM

Missed most of it

Just listening to Pemberton saying the few 2 car drafts that ran were hardly any faster than single car runs.

Makes for you yet another guessing game Daytona 500 year!

Feels like the last 8 or 10 superspeedway races we have debating what rules they might change or if they will draft or pack race.

**Vegas39** · 01-10-13, 06:30 PM

May get better feel tomorrow. As only ones that tandem drafted was Gibbs 3 cars and Mark Martin

**5mike5** · 01-10-13, 07:27 PM

said couldnt even draft 2 laps in gibbs camp....barely 1

wont be any of that again this season...

Yes and didn't know til today that shootout name changed to sprint unlimited

upside no run should run hot like last year

think they just announced that a few days ago

i just saw sprint was going to sponsor it, so i called it the "sprint showdown"

sprint unlimited doesnt sounds as catchy as bud shootout does it...

Edwards fault it appeared.

Junior said he lifted the back of Ambrose and caused it. Reckons the Chevy can push a Chev or Toyota but lifts a Ford.... well thats what he learned there
