I was there, hangin' out with my fellow rednecks. That race was not very exciting... 'bout what all the stereotypes pin on NASCAR, especially since Daytona is a restrictor plate track. But I had a great view of that last lap wreck.
That was, indeed, a spectacular wreck. Intensified by the near-universal hate of the guy in that 18 car, a hundred thousand screaming fans could not have been happier. It made the 3-day weekend cross country trip worth while. That was a great way to spend Independence Day.
It's a testament to NASCAR's safety improvements that nobody was injured in that incident... except for maybe Kyle Busch, who had to be subdued by officials so he didn't go pick a fight in the middle of pit lane.
@TimTim: I too watched the end of that race, all by my redneck self. I made it 100,001 screaming fans who delighted in the finish. That guy in #18 car was definitely PO'd.
This is all I can think of anymore whenever someone mentions NASCAR, I instantly start yelling: GO FAST "I'm going fast!" TURN LEFT "I'm turning left!"
I will cheer heartily and relish every single time Kyle Busch gets put into the wall. He's a tumbling, tumbling dickweed and a punk. The man just wins too much; it's suspicious. The less he wins, the better the sport is. He thought he could steal a win from Tony, and he was wrong, end of story.
Also, Burger King is delicious. THANK YOU BABY JESUS!!!

Then again, in a sickening sense, Talladega always has been my favorite track.
