Got to go to my first Daytona Race, a lady that works with my brother in law gave us some free tickets. We were sitting right outside of turn 4 in the first part of the Grand Stand. It was a blast. I have put the pictures on facebook so if you arent friends with me then add me!

And I noticed all the Chevy's were being all pretty and used only for the driver intros, but they used the Big Daddy Dodge for hauling around the Jet Driers, so I took a pic of that.

the reason why they use only Chevrolets during driver intros is because GM pays them to do so...lol

Yeah I know lol, I dont think dodge pays them to have dodges do the work though, I think that is a choice.

Honestly I dont think Dodge is paying for much of anything anymore...I wish they would put a larger footprint in the sport...

They had the pace car, and a challenger and another charger that were in front of the pace car on the start

I speak more of raceteam support...they have 0 factory support in the truck series with the Ram brand and Penske has been fielding them. I am actually surprised how well they do with only having one 2 car team with Penske in cup.

Pretty cool when 2 Dodges can stand up in a field of 43 cars that are mostly Chevy, Ford, & them Toyota.

So Daniel, did you like it enough to go back? Stupid question right? I got that question a lot after the first time I went to a cup race there.

^ LOL. Well, the 200mph train was a bit better than the 2 car draft, but it's still awesome!
