I would have preferred one of the others.

I think Dale Jr is awesome! - I'm not surprised I'm disagreeing with Stroker either

Great win for Jr.    Easy to be a fan when you see how genuine he is.

It's been a long dry spell for Jr.   Happy to see him take it.

I would have really have liked to have seen Keselowski or Hamlin win it.  As far as Dale Lsr. winning it, it's ok I guess.  It's about time he starts showing some success for as much as Hendrick has given him.  Just another excuse for the Dale fans to buy another shirt or diecast ::)

It would have been nice if Kayne would have been able to catch a break.  I think he should have been excused from speeding on pit road because he had to dodge a wreck.  Doesn't matter I guess, he got caught up in another wreck.

Larson, I thought, did rather well for being a rookie and never driven a Cup car.  Much better than Dillon.  Larson made a few mistakes early on, but they only affected himself, unlike Dillon's.  Once he got himself straightened out, he done good until Dillon took him out.  If he can perform good at Phoenix and Vegas, I say he'll do real good the rest of the year.

Dillon performed just like he has always done in Cup.  I will say that he done a good job saving his car when he go clipped in the right rear by Almirola.  But, I don't think he made too many new friends in his big debut.

I'll give Patrick benefit of the doubt that it wasn't her fault, but her incident was probably predicted by quite a few, as was Waltrip's.

On to Phoenix and Post race Inspection :popcrn:

Heck ya!  What a finish. Nice to see the pack racing back with Passing!  Was great after the rain delay. My wife was laughing at me trying to quietly cheer & scream as the kids had just gone down for bed.   Woo Hoo!

Last time I checked, he has more Daytona 500 wins than his old man.      :2thumbs:

Try comparing him to his teammates and see where he stacks up.

i remember 2 years ago when hendrick had 6 cars on the track. (yes im including tony and ryan since they were driving hendrick motors and chassis) 5 of the 6 made the chase.  one lowly person from hendrick motor sports didnt make it. wonder who? :shruggy:

Excluding the #48, he was the highest finishing Hendrick car in the points last year.

Sugar coat it all you want, but when you start comparing stats,  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hendrick_Motorsports    he doesn't stack up.  He had better stats when he was in DEI.     http://msn.foxsports.com/nascar/cup/driver/dale-earnhardt-jr./careerstats/371489?q=dale-earnhardt-jr

Folks forget that the #3 car's win in the 500 was under caution...
If not for that, Labonte would have won, leaving the #3 with no Daytona 500 wins...  :Twocents:
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

Chargen69

well whatever you think you think.   it is a free country, for now, and i am a Dale JR fan.   there is a lot of people on the all time win list that dont have 20 wins

thedodgeboys

Im ok with Jr's win he was genuinely happy after the race win much more than his DEI days...


I imagine its tough being the son of a legend and everyone expecting you to be one also, just ask Kyle Petty...

Richard petty did a little better than Lee.
Kyle?  Not so much.

Buddy Baker's son Brad??
David Pearson's son Larry?

Hard to top 'em....
