agreed...ARCA puts on a pretty good show at the superspeedways. DP is as quick as Kimmel in q'ing...how long will that last? will Ricky push her or move in behind Frank?

should be interesting, for shiz....

I'm well up for this - can't wait

skells22 · 6 Feb 2010, 20:33 (Ref:2628041)

we normally see a 'big one' when the cars come out to play

what time does the arca race and bud shootout start UK time? i can never work out the difference!!!!

**FIRE** · 6 Feb 2010, 20:56 (Ref:2628053)

I think ARCA between 30 and 60 minutes.

In pre race talk with Dave Despain, probably the greatest comment i've ever heard from Ken Squier:

...and the there is Neslon Piquet. He has got to be asking himself, "How did it come to this?"

fieldodreams79 · 6 Feb 2010, 21:41 (Ref:2628070)

GREEN FLAG!

Stockcar season is on!

MJ_N_09 · 6 Feb 2010, 21:46 (Ref:2628075)

Well......I tuned in for a rece, but I got the Danica show instead. Only just now did they stop mentioning her.

Dutton · 6 Feb 2010, 21:47 (Ref:2628076)

Oh, we've already had the All-star! Anyway, ARCA Daytona is usually pretty interesting.

And as I type this the first mash-up occurs. A major loose moment for the 52 turns into mayhem.

0100 Sunday, UK time is when the TV programme for the shoot-out starts for me over here. The race start cannot be much after that. I am assuming this is live coverage.

fieldodreams79 · 6 Feb 2010, 21:47 (Ref:2628077)

...and the first big one of the year.

MJ_N_09 · 6 Feb 2010, 21:48 (Ref:2628079)

The big one Already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Danica was just 2 cars ahead of the 52 (the one who caused it). And once again, the drivers made zero attempt to slow down.

MJ_N_09 · 6 Feb 2010, 21:50 (Ref:2628081)

No Danica, I do't wanna see what happens next....

your right, but i don't count that. first points race.

Dutton · 6 Feb 2010, 21:53 (Ref:2628089)

Well, fair enough.

I am left pondering the thing I always ponder during this race. Just how many (rather few?) cars will make it to the end?

yep...that was pretty ugly.

MJ_N_09 · 6 Feb 2010, 21:55 (Ref:2628091)

Milka Duno drove into the wreck like an idiot. There goes at least 1 female.

Alli Owens dodged a huge bullet by coming to pit road too.

skells22 · 6 Feb 2010, 22:04 (Ref:2628100)

can you tell me how many cars invole

MJ_N_09 · 6 Feb 2010, 22:06 (Ref:2628103)

At least 6-10

fieldodreams79 · 6 Feb 2010, 22:08 (Ref:2628105)

well.....
these guys just can't keep it pointin' straight today.
that was a hard hit.

MJ_N_09 · 6 Feb 2010, 22:10 (Ref:2628106)

Caution 2. the 22 of Dakota Armstrong is spun by Jon Wes Townley, and is t-boned of the 81 of Eddie Goess.

they said the 22 had a tire going down and was doing everything to get out of the way.

MJ_N_09 · 6 Feb 2010, 22:13 (Ref:2628112)

Danica was inches away from being hit by the 22.

they are dropping like flies right now...thought they were settled in until the first wreck.

we thing we do know, that unless Milka can fix her car, she is going to finish last.
