As a resident of Florida I am not thrilled with this, first the Superbowl and now this.  Yes I know, only 1/3 the amount of fans are being let into the stadium.  I still think it is totally irresponsible.  our numbers in Florida ridiculous and to me this is more than irresponsible on the part of so many people.

One of my favorite races/tracks, except the Daytona 500 in 2001 when Dale Earnhardt, Sr. died in a crash on the final lap of the race.

 

I was such a fan of his, attending MANY races since we were a racing family at that time, that I had his #3 with wings tattooed on my ankle.

 

 

Talladega is my next favorite track.

I like that they're staying in Daytona two weeks in a row with the Super Speedway race this week and the road course next week.

We've watched the races all week.  I'm really enjoying Clint Boyer's commentating.  It's funny and refreshing.

We watched the first 15 laps before accident that took out at least 10 cars.  Then it rained.  Then they ran the Busch Clash, I think thtat's what it was called.  No mention of Daytona 500 coming back.  Was I on the wrong channel for the Busch race?  When and where did they run the second 500?  Where did they run the Busch race?
