I don't think JR has showed everything. That car was as fast on old tires as it was new. He's holding something back.

I think the Hendrick and Gibbs cars are very strong. The 20 and 88 were stout in the lead and the 24 stayed in the top 5 all race. Those are signs of strong engines.

I was disappointed with Kyle Larson.

You think they got the motor turned down?

During the first Pit stop all of his gauges were running low. They added some tape to get him some more horses.

That's a good thing. Not running on all horses and staying up front

Absolutely. I loved the move Jeff threw on Joey on the final turn. #HendrickPower

I don't know what to think about Larson yet

 

[Burhead]

Am I the only one who thinks of Lipton Tea when you see Cassill's car?

 

[Burhead]

Speaking of Cassill he just said that his team's budget is 75% from prize winnings and it takes three races to reach the potential Daytona 500 winnings.

 

[gordonr24]

I was watching Cassill in the first duel. I'm watching for Josh Wise in this one.

He'll be okay.

Daytona is such a crap shoot. You really can't get much info from it.

Wonder who's ride Danica will buy if she fails to qualify?

I'm just hoping she wrecks again. It never gets old. And since she has to race her in, chances are good that she will.

Yeah just hope she doesn't take any of the smaller teams out in the process.

That too. I always root for the small teams.

I'm watching for JEB.

Gotta find a driver to root for when Gordon retires.

Did Reed Sorenson ever find a backup car, or did he end up having to go home after his only car got destroyed in qualifying over the weekend?

I'll casually stick with the SHR, RCR, and Hendrick guys. I like Harvick and Smoke but I know they're both up there in age too. Of the young guns, Larson is my favorite.

Last I heard he went home. Danica should just give him her car. She'll wreck it anyways.

I like Larson but I'm a Chase fan.

I stick with the bowties. If Jeff gets knocked out I'll pull for Junior or Harvick.

I used to like Logano. But he is a idiot like Kyle.

That sucks. I wasn't sure, because the said the first duel had 25 drivers and the second had 24. I thought only 49 had entered, but maybe they just counted him even though he doesn't have a car.

I like Chase as well. Don't care for either or the Dillon brother's.

It does. Hopefully I'm wrong. I thought 50 had registered?

I mainly like the bow ties. I'd like to see Larson get a better ride, like Kahne's after this season.

Joe Nemechek withdrew.
