Denny Hamlin @dennyhamlin 2m If we could just get this Daytona 500 on tv right now to rain out ill be in great shape

They could show a Sonoma replay, and some dummies would still think they were watching the 2014 Daytona 500.

Spencer Hall @edsbs 43m
Lot of people on Twitter currently enjoying last year's Daytona 500 like it's live.

Wes Huett @WesHuett 33s
NASCAR is so repetitive, even fans of the sport can't tell the difference between last year's Daytona 500 and... http://fb.me/2vt4SAN0k

Kurt Siegelin @kurtsiegelin 3m
Martin Truex has been in contention late at the Daytona 500 many times. He is there again. 2nd place w/ 43 laps to go. #TimeToTuneIn



Adam Kramer @KegsnEggs 1h

The driver crossed the finish line in front of empty stands. The year was 2027. “I’ve done it," he said. “I’ve won the 2014 Daytona 500."

Eta on restart ..?

1 Hour Ago


Red01GT
At least an hour. The warnings just got lifted about 20 minutes ago. Takes at least an hour to dry the track.

Maybe quicker. Montoya doesn't race anymore

[Dirty Sanchez]

Some might see it as a 5 Dimes "Caution Flag" giving you a shot at picking a driver after you've seen a few laps....and you can even take Danica if you want too

This actually worked out well for me as I was late to get some picks in this morning.

[Dirty Sanchez]

I actually to this opportunity to take Brad Keselowski #2 +110* vs Kasey Kahne #5...just like the look of the Miller Lite Car

[KalouKalou]

Is Jimmie Johnson has a good chance to win this race?

[firedawg]

There's about 25 guys with a good chance lol

[yisman]

We're still at least an hour away from restarting.

[Vegas39]

I'd say 90 mins to dry, but at least radar clear for a few hours

[rickie65]

[5mike5]

Looks like an old fashion night race this year for the 500!!!

as long as it isn't cut short in fine. If any chance it is? Then run it tomorrow opening

LETS GO RACIN BOYS

[firedawg]

Fukkin hammered drinking all through rain delay. Hope I get a winner after all this. 1 time Jamie Mac!!!!!

[yisman]

I think the jet dryers will be able to do their jobs more effectively this year, considering they don't have to worry about you know who.

[5mike5]

i killed it in that live IN RACE- Betting during the red-flag

harvick AND kennseth at +1800?!?!?!

McMurray +6500??

yes sir

those idiots dont realize restarting in 30s-43rd means NOTHING here..

gotta love the books we kill every year for a reason

[firedawg]

McMurray will be in mix at end

[yisman]

yeah I think everyone on the lead lap has a chance except for the bums who park it

Only Larson and Truex are off the lead lap.

harvick and kenseth are lower now (14 and 16/1), but jamie mac 65/1 still there, and that's the best one anyway

[5mike5]

<----------this wont even start for another 100 laps really...unless chance of rain and then hope it pours lap 95 or so an cant be official and run tomorrow

yeah yisman, unless ur wrecked or SNP ur in this thing as good as any1...

even a lap down because a flat if ur car is fine u are too

most guys like jamie mac/harvick/jimmie, smoke, ect are in the rear because thats their gameplan

and your right, any1 not taking McMurray @ 65-1 is a moron win or not...best value of the whole day imo
