Any early predictions on whether he'll win any races next year?

Elliott? Probably not in Cup if he's going to run a limited schedule and will be "learning the ropes", unless it's a fluke rain shortened race or something along those lines.

As for 2016...who knows? He'll be in top notch equipment and have a few races under his belt by then...

I think Chase will run decent in the 5 races he'll attempt. I thought rookies had the choice to run up to 7 races to be eligible for ROTY? Maybe it's changed since 2009? I think Kyle Larson and Ryan Blaney will be the guys to watch this year also. I expect Ky. B, Harvick, and Keselowski will dominate the first quarter since they ran alot of NNS races the past few years while everyone else is adjusting to the new HP rules.

Probably only running 5 due to sponsorship or scheduling issues.

I agree on Kyle Larson...but too bad he's on Earnhardt-Ganassi (or whatever it is called now) equipment and wont be able to do as much as hes capable of.

I believe Thursday is only media day. Friday Shootout practice and ARCA practice, and then Saturday the Shootout and the ARCA race before that.

Dual practice is on Fox Sports 1 right now and there is a break, then a second practice.  ARCA race live at 3pm central time, then a hour break, and the shootout at 7pm central on Fox tonight.

They already are talking about tomorrows qualifying and the crashes because the new qualifying format happens for the first time for the Daytona 500. Starts at noon central time on Fox.

I thought the race was pretty good tonight, other than commercials every 5 laps :flame:  Even JJ and Tony got banged up a little, and taken out of contention.  I could have done without the last caution though.  It was setting up to be really good.

Already a 5 car pile up in the 1st segment of qualifying. Clint Boyer was in it and his car was junk, and because of the red flag, the first 25 qualifying cars did not complete a qualifying lap before the time limit ran out. so yeah, lol. Lot of BIG names were in the first 25 cars.

Best part of the shootout......seeing the number 48 hooked up to a tow truck...priceless....
Hope the rest of his year goes the same......

All I can hope for now is that the pole sitter takes out #2 qualifier in turn one after the green flag

You might as well call the new qualifying format what it really is....a mini race.  Like Reed Sorenson said after he wrecked (and took out Clint Bowyer)...he was doing everything he needed to do in order to qualify and get into the big race, he tried to block (like they were doing during the Shootout)....but it didn't work out. 

This new format which has proven to be very controversial - will attributed to more wrecks in the future.

Well, That'st he point I guess, to make it controversial to bring in more viewers. That said, the stands were almost empty for qualifying yet.
