"he’s saved more than $100,000 by using US Airways."

He should just put a little USAir sign on his car and get air fare in return.

In the Rolex 24, the Spirit of Daytona just went up in smoke on pit road.

Shades of things to come this year?

Just got back myself. Missed the end of Rolex but watching the bobsledding.

Logano got penalized in the Toyota Allstar race in Fontana for wrecking another car just yards from the finish. I wouldn’t agree with the call except for the fact that is his usual MO. NASCAR made a call, so it must be ‘what-if’ time http://snipurl.com/apee1

The win at the Rolex 24 couldn’t have happened to a nicer team

have watched most of the Allstar Race twice now and haven’t gotten to the finish yet! LOL
Not a fan of those types of penalties, far too subjective and typically it comes down to who you are pulling for whether they were “fair” or not. :)

Crash is on a roll! Next one will be a win. Daytona maybe?

Johnson slices finger during Rolex 24 race

Three-time defending NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson sliced his left middle finger with a knife, but said the injury will not affect his driving.

Johnson cut himself while in Daytona Beach, Fla., for the Rolex 24 sports car race. He had just woken up from a nap Sunday when a team assistant came to tell him it was his turn to drive in the endurance race.

In a hurry to make a hole in his uniform to insert a cooling tube, Johnson grabbed a knife and tried to cut an opening into the fabric. He said the knife pierced through the uniform and sliced his finger.

“It got me pretty good,” Johnson told The Associated Press. “Cut right through the fabric to where my finger was on the other side.”

Johnson did not drive his final stint in the race, turning the car over to teammate Jimmy Vasser. The four-man team of Johnson, Vasser, Jon Fogarty and Alex Gurney finished seventh in its class for GAINSCO/Bob Stallings Racing.

Johnson said he received stitches in Daytona, then flew home to Charlotte, N.C., for a further examination Sunday night. He said the injury will not affect his driving and he’ll be ready to race when teams report to Daytona in 11 days to begin preparations for the season-opening Daytona 500.

Johnson became just the second driver in NASCAR history to win three consecutive titles in November. He tied Cale Yarborough, who won his titles from 1975-78.
