Yea, I saw the last 30-35 laps. They were intense! Since Gordon's car is
headed for the display area, I wonder if they would notice if the engine
were missing? I would love to find out how they are wringing out the HP on
these engines. 200+ mph with a restrictor plate. I'm sure we could
probably benefit from the methods as well. Come to think of it, there
really isn't any difference between a restrictor plate and the EPA. They
both choke the life out of everything they touch.

<<Hey did anyone see Earnhardt bump Gordon after the checkered flag at
Daytona?? Guess Dale baby was pissed....>>

What an awesome race!! Best one I've ever seen! From the interviews
afterwards
the bump was a "friendly tap" to congratulate Gordon... Boy, the balls
these
guys have got with those million dollar cars, Sheesh!
