Re: The Daytona 500, Way to go Toyota! HA HA
Well i just got back from Daytona Saturday. Been going to the crafstman truck race for 4 years then drive home in time to catch the 500. Anybody here ever go to the races? Daytona has about a 1.5 mile strip with big stands and tons of free give aways. The 3 big american companies used to have set-ups but dodge and ford bailed out. They are losing too much money on their cars to spend that much on a single race promotion. Chevy had the 2009 camaro out on display and i got some pics might post them up later. This was the first year for Toyota to have anything but they had a silverado 1500 next to a tundra on the dyno's and every now and then would fire them off and let you see the results(might not have been pressing the gas all the way down on the chevy though if you know what i mean  ). They were pretty comparable though. The race was awesome search youtube for the Chevy silverado hd 250 and you can watch it. 3 trucks went across the finish line within 3-4 feet of eachother. Unfortunately a toyota won and i think had like 3 in the top 5? Just be glad Honda hasn't joined nextel circuits yet. They already own Indy it's gonna be ugly when they finally do emerge.
