NASCAR is Off and Running2010 Daytona Speedweeks are history and if NASCAR wanted to get out of the gate quick; they sure got their wish. There were enough story-lines to keep everyone interested. Danica created a huge buzz and in the end performed well. She took 6th in the ARCA event and was taken out in a wreck not of her own doing in the Nationwide race. The enormous media hype surrounding her had to benefit both the ARCA and Nationwide Series. All publicity is good! Mark Martin and Dale Jr made for anice fan favorite front row for the Daytona 500. Mark had an okay run in the 500 and Dale Jr. came from no-where to finish second and gives hope to the citizens of Jr. Nation. Jamie McMurray provided all of us with a truly emotional win when he errupted in tears in victory lane. In today's manufactured world, it's nice to see genuine feelings on display. Jamie drove a great race and in no way lucked into the win. I applaud NASCAR for the new green-white-checkered rule that allowed all of us to enjoy a fantastic finish. NASCAR really seems to be trying to give the fans what they want,. Yes I know the race was stopped twice for pot-hole repair. Embarrassing, but when it's all said and done, we'll remember a super competitive race with a great finish . On the whole, the 2010 Daytona Speedweeks were a roaring success. Let's hope NASCAR can catch the wave and ride it.
