NO meetings on Sunday!

Would have got it quicker, but I had a fork in my hand. :)

Yep it was 11 last year so we'll see.

I'm just finalizing my Jr Fantasy League picks - much different than Yahoo. You pick by $$ amount for the drivers and only have $125.00 to spend. For instance Flash is $49.00 and you have to pick 5 drivers. And you have to be in the top ten for the last 10 races to go to the finish for the big win. Top 5 to Daytona next year with Jr.

The Y-2 and 3 pitcrew groups are up to 90 players now....

Anybody know if the race video will be broadcast on the 'net anywhere?

I can't pick up any NBC stations with my "rabbit ears" antenna.

The only thing I know is Trackpass Pit Command is free this weekend. No TV but you can follow the race there with driver audio.

Thanks, WCG.

Wonder why NBC is carrying the race anyway? I thought FOX always had the first half of the season.

If the Olmypics get in the BREAKING NEWS category, so should this thread, considering that the Daytona 500 will get more ratings than 4-man curling.

They switch year-to-year the Daytona 500. Next week's race will be on FOX.

Yes

Front Page News at least. Can we get a bump in about 30 minutes or less?

And in the Oly's...USA losing the hockey game..2-1 to Swedish American Hockey players...all pros all the time.

The Oly's have osculated major time...just can't stand them this year. NBC...Nuttin' but Commercials.

In the MEANTIME--a quarter of a million NASCAR Fans will gather around the 2.5mile quad-oval in Daytona Beach, FLUSA...to watch gasoline being burned and tires smokin' with MILLIONS more people watching on TeeVee...imagine that.

Yee Haaaa

Can the crewcheif throw a red flag on the track to have a call reviewed?

I don't even want to think about stopping the race for one of those "upon further review".
