Did anyone have Jimmie?

Thank you Opti!

Jimmie's wife said she didn't even bet him....WTF

missed the race today, family stuff.

Random thing I noticed:

According to Daytona's website, every driver won $0 last year

However, they did get paid in 2011.

Maybe the people running that website are connected with the ones running NASCAR's site.

I love an engine builder who can find power others can't, but since TRD/JGR engine shops merged breakages seem to be way too common.

Actually come to think breakages were way too common before the merge too from memory... they just didn't have the extra power they seem to have now.
