A gift from the gods, for once we might actually not lose positions on pit road every stop

I might have missed it but is there a live feed I can watch the races on today? I guess I can follow Raceview but it would be more fun to watch on Speed. Will JustinTV have a link do you suppose?

FYI: Check the Daytona 500 page. TOG will be doing some live video feeds between running gas cans, tires, gluing lug nuts, etc. There's also photos from this morning's appearance at 7-11.

NASCAR is doing it again! Now they are changing the tapered spacer in the Truck series as they feel they are going to fast! This new spacer is suppose to reduce the HP up to 40 hp! Personally I don't think the trucks were running all that fast, Todd Bodine was the fastest in practice at 193.175. I think NASCAR does not want the trucks too out show the CUP cars. 40 HP is a lot of power to take away.

IMO I think all these changes make NASCAR look like a joke and they look very unprepared. They always talk about Daytona being the Super Bowl of NASCAR and yet could you imagine the Super Bowl, World Series or any sport making last minute performance rules to their series just days before the big game?

I was watching bit of the nationwide practice last night and the bumper from the differen makes of the car dont line up correctly to push. So TV commentator were busy discussing which brands make good pushing partner and which down. NASyawnCRAP promised different kind of racin, cant wait. Now restrictors and closing rate issues, cant wait for the demolition derby. Buy some stock in scrap metal companies.

Don't they basically do this every year at Daytona? What's the big deal? They are always tweaking the rules to improve competition and safety. How is NASCAR supposed to know what they need to do until a couple of dozen cars get on the track at once?

We have a new surface and cars that have redesigned front ends. Were these decisions supposed to have been made in an R&D lab or a board room in Novemeber and stuck to no matter what?

Matt makes a good point. This stuff is normal and to be expected on a track with a new surface and the car having a new nose

Matt, I hope your thoughts prove me wrong. We will see after a few hours or Sunday. I dont see the direction NASCRAP is taking improves Safety or competition. I even feel worse for all the engineers and owners (Specially robby), that spend millions fine tuning a car and engine package to make them faster than their competition, just to have NASCRAP change the restrictor on them again. Smaller restrictor --->less speed ---> less downforce = Car handeling differently than practice and the varaible you used during windtunnel testing.
