YES SIR!!!!

im too damn invested after being post-poned for 31 hours and 90 min. of this bizarre blowup of a jet dryer??!......

i want a "real" winner not dave blaney like this....if he wins outright, then great but not like this

I hear ya....Got too much invested to have a race-shortened winner like Blaney now.

yisman · 02-27-12, 11:34 PM

I guess NASCAR or FOX supports Scientology. Been getting hammered with their ads all night.

5mike5 · 02-27-12, 11:35 PM

kinda sorta feel bad for "field" and "blaney" backers but....i cant feel too bad i dont have them

im giving up a nice H2H parlay hit, but i want an ending and a shot at the BIG payday of winning the race...its worth the risk for me anyways

5mike5 · 02-27-12, 11:37 PM

going to be a WILD last 40 laps.....may have many many more cautions...LOL

i still cant believe what we all just witnessed....a car slamming into a jet-dryer under caution laps filled with jet fuel and it exploded on impacy and sets the rack on fire for 30 min., spilling 200 gallons of jet fuel and now we can still finish the race....and oh yeah, TWO different storm cells magically fall apart within 2 miles of the track

UNBELIEVABLE

onlooker · 02-27-12, 11:41 PM

Yeah, this is a crazy night.

Something just don't want this race to go on.

yisman · 02-27-12, 11:41 PM

Thought I had bet several times at Heritage but all I have listed there is seven bucks on Burton and 10 on Harvick. Also got Burton, Harvick, and Kahne at Bovada.

C'mon guys!

5mike5 · 02-27-12, 11:45 PM

ready to get this going

onlooker · 02-27-12, 11:46 PM

Jet dryer on track, keep Montoya away from a car.

yisman · 02-27-12, 11:46 PM

These announcers remind me of teenagers drunk-dialing their friends.

Just dialing random numbers and seeing which driver comes up.

Wow, this delay is really dragging on. It was like an hour ago that we were saying we'd be getting going soon.

5mike5 · 02-27-12, 11:50 PM

yeah no doubt

yisman · 02-27-12, 11:51 PM

all jet dryers will have roll cages installed if Montoya is in the race
by Jet Dryer Association 11:49 PM

From now on I think I'll fly in propeller driven planes. I'm afraid of jets mow
by Juan Pablo Montoya 11:50 PM

It would dry faster if they had a extra jet dr....oh never mind.
by u p 11:50 PM
Just promoted from AAA, jetdryer prospect backup driver
by Chad 11:50 PM

LOL

onlooker · 02-27-12, 11:51 PM

The track is still wet. This will probably take them another 30 minutes to dry.

5mike5 · 02-27-12, 11:52 PM

"millions of LOCUSTS cover daytona international speedway"...next on FOX

nothing would shock me at this point

onlooker · 02-27-12, 11:52 PM

yisman · 02-27-12, 11:55 PM

biff +2700
kennseth +2700
newman +3800
smoke +1200
harvick +1150
McMurray +2300
lagano +30-somethin
edwards +1200

and 2 cover wagers are BK and Rowdy busch

i think thats all of them

Bowyer is only driver i bet thats off lead lap i think.....also still have a parlay that would pay well too but nothing like any 1 of those huge winners

yisman · 02-28-12, 12:19 AM

another crash

ambrose, mears

Reno Paul · 02-28-12, 12:20 AM

it wont be the last.....this last 15 laps going to be CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZY!!!!

5mike5 · 02-28-12, 12:24 AM

Being this is a plate track and i have 8 of my 9 bullets for big prophit still alive on the lead lap, and both my "cover" wagers there too, i cant complain whatever happens from this point on....especially after the race even got re-started

only losing 1 car so far(Bowyer) is a miracle in itself
