Some pictures from the Daytona 500...













Just thought I would add a few Daytona 500 bits, hope you don't mind... I was glad fro Dale Jr. but I was hoping for McMurray to win... and of course all my drivers get taken out by that 12 car accident. Even my favorite non-Dodge driver Michael Waltrip!

I enjoyed this very much, I couldn't help but think about Dale Sr. as Junior crossed the line Victorious.
