Twenty year old Trevor Baine starting in his second ever Sprint Cup race wins the
Daytona 500 in a car owned by the Woods brothers!
Woods brothers are one of the most respected and oldest teams in NASCAR, they
are also one of the least funded. The driver, Trevor Baine, does not even have a
full time ride in Cup or Nation Wide. The Woods brothers are only running a very
limited schedule as well.
Congrats to Trevor Baine and Woods Brothers Racing!
In the words of Trevor Baine, "Are you kidding me?"

Good to see fresh meat winning the game, I am so tired of hearing about JR this Jr that, Gordon this and that, they are has beens, and some were nothing more than riding the tails if you will.
I am actually happy for this young kid, he seems well spoken and it might bring some interest back into racing.
-
I watched all of the speed week coverage and really enjoyed this kid. I have always loved the Wood Brothers and am very happy for Trevor!!!!
Sad day as my driver Jeff Burton blew up but those are the breaks.....
There were huge cheers from this house when Trevor won the race!!!!
:D

WTG Wood Brothers and Trevor Baine :cheers: great to see the 21 back in victory lane :D

Good, we don't need your kind, especially considering the reverse could be said for your
movie.
I don't feel the need to throw it in your face though.....

i gotta ask though.....was there actually any racing, or was it the normal 200mph traffic jam?

It looked like couples racing, two by two,
(http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj131/bayoubeach/imagesCAZG9R13.jpg)
several wrecks were due to a train colliding into another train that had a run on them.

I do not watch NSCAR but saw the pic on the big wreck. How many drivers where taking out of the race?
-
The first "Big one" took out 13 if I remember correctly. Funny thing about Trevor, he had no idea where the winner podium was, he got stopped by officials as he almost drove past it.
Quote over in car audio after winning the race, "Are you kidding me? seriously are you kidding me?" Upon needing to go to winners circle " I dont know where I am going..where do I go?"
That last comment got me laughing, and he deserved it, he worked hard at pushing people all day he had no idea what it was to be pushed, and cudos to Carl Edwards for pushing him the final 400 yards over the finish line.

Trevor and Regan Smith both did awesome job in yesterdays race...... Stewart/junebug (<-- E.Jr. ) combo shoved Kurt Busch into Regan taking him out of it, but he manged to come back and finish in the top ten even though he got punted and had to retsart at the back with just 2 laps to get back to the front.......
Trevor does have a full time ride in Nationwide..... he drives for Roush, and he is on loan to the Wood Brothers #21 Sprint Cup ride for something like 16 or 17 races this season...... ( maybe less ??? ) but he will be making his run for the "Rookie of the year" in sprintcup next year......
MWR really made a bad decision in letting Trevor go last year in the nationwide series....... Trevor came on even stronger once Roush picked him up as a driver...
i dont watch REDNECK err i mean NASCAR but this got my attention...
ROFL...... is funny people assuming such a thing...... NASCAR is like having a superbowl every weekend throughout most of the year....... it is nation wide loaded with fans from all races, creeds, ages You name it.... people come from over 53 different countrys in the world to just watch a race each year........
The nationwide series and the Camping world Truck series offers more action these days....... in my view...... but if Kyle is in the race, I am watching it, that young man is the most natural talented driver I have ever seen since the ol' Tim Richmond days / and early thru mid driving career days of Rusty W.

If you ever have a chance to go to a race in your area or nearby, take it, you will never regret it.
One of the best things in life to experience and see.
The fans are fantastic, what other sport event will have 190 THOUSAND screaming fans in one place...... Its a super bowl at every race.
Not only that but the cars are so fast, TV does not give them justice on the speed and skill to be a driver of one of these cars.
Don't knock it till you tried it.
Not sure of your race but if you were saying Redneck in a racist form, I dont think too many would appreciate that. Sort of like a white person using the "N" word you know.
-
Luv you dad.
Redneck is nothing like the N word. No matter how you use it. Although both are often used in terms of endearment, and both are digs aimed at lack of intelligence, I don't ever recall any lynchings of Rednecks.
But no matter what ethnicity the majority of participants or fans of any sport, don't for a moment think that free thinking individuals aren't just as likely to have motor oil running through their veins as have Gatorade pumping from their pores.
I agree with you, if you don't have an appreciation for something as hugely popular as NASCAR, you probably haven't experienced it close up.
Skorpion,
As dark as my complexion may or may not be, if I were sitting trackside watching cars running 200 mph inches away from one another whipping past me faster than I could snap my head around, I would think more folks would be calling all of us rubber necks, trying to keep up with the action, and the beer concessions.

2002 Charlotte was my first live go see race, It was the return of #3 CarQuest 300 weekend, its nothing compared to what you see on TV, so much better in person, i had the pleasure to go with Jerry and Pam Glavin some friends from my town, they knew how much i loved the sport and they travel to alot of nascar events ( 20+ races) , Pam knows alot of Nascar Personalities and i got to meet many drivers while i was there, Gordon, Harvick, the King, Busch bros, the most enjoyable person i meet was Tony Stewart he was very friendly and funny, followed by meeting Dale Jr in person and he signed my Commemorative Ticket with the #3 car on it that he drove that weekend it ranks up there with my 1998 Daytona 500 Dale Earnhardt Autographed Tire i bought from RCR
-
My very first Race was 1998 Daytona 500, I fell into the tickets by accident and I will never regret going. Awesome race and that was teh first time I have heard of teh crowd staying in their seat for an additional 1.5 hours after the race was done, usually they leave even before the checkered flag is even shown. With the MAN in front nobody wanted to miss seeing him gain his first 500 win. My personal experience there is one to remember. If you get a chance go to a race and you will be using all 5 of your senses to experience a thrill
sight--- watching them go 180mph plus
smell--- smelling the fumes of 43 high powered engines
touch-- feeling the roar of 43 800 hp engines go by at 180 (trust me you feel it in your chest)
hearing-- even with ear plugs and ear muffs I stil had a hearing problem after the race
taste-- being able to taste the fumes (sounds gross but you can)
There is only one thing that is better.... and we all know what that is.

This was my first race, I was 7 rows back from the fence and somewhere just to the right of the start finish line in this picture.
While on USS Barry we pulled into Savannah Georgia for the St. Patty's day week long celebrations and they were offering free tickets for me and a couple others since we volunteered to be the designated van drivers to and from Darlington hauling sailors up to the race.
The closest finish in Nascar history. :rock
