Simon - Junior may do alright on the restrictor plate tracks [DEI has that figured out],,,,,but another year like last on the rest of the circuit. While not a Waltrip fan,,,,I believe Waltrip leaving the team will hurt their testing and communications, when setting up the cars.

Rain...rain...rain. We will have to wait until tomorrow. I agree with AC. Although Waltrip will have a struggle on his hands this year as well. Once he gets in a Toyota I think he will get back up to the top. What do I know? I picked Mark Martin as champ last year.

Jr. will miss Mike being right on his bumper for sure. When those guys used to team up, they would really work the track. Hendrick cars have closed up the gap lately in plate races. Jeff is on a hot streak with the plate.------------------ BackinBlack

more news.....DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Crew chief Chad Knaus faces possible suspension for altering the height of the rear window in driver Jimmie Johnson's car before Sunday's qualifying for the Daytona 500. Johnson's qualifying speed that ranked fifth was disallowed, which will force him to start from the back in the first of Thursday's two Gatorade 150 qualifying races that set positions 3 through 43 in the 500. Hunter said past violations will not be a factor in considering further punishment. But Hunter left open the possibility of further penalties, including confiscation of the cars, suspension of the crew chiefs, monetary fines and maybe even a points deduction.

I don't understand the situation with the window. I hope they clarify the infraction. Knaus does have a history of funny buisness.To heck with all that anyhow, I just hope it warms up in Daytona before I get there! ------------------ BackinBlack
