Bumpity! Bumpity! Bumpity! Let's go racing!
Getting a head start this year compared to last. But they've started Daytona testing this week and it's got me in the mood. The Bud Shootout kicks off the season on February 18.
Potential story lines to pay attention to this year..
1. Fuel Injected Engines making their full time debut this year. Will they be as durable? more power? who develops an advantage first? new ways to cheat??
2. Danica Patrick's part time ride. Did Tony know wtf he's doing?? Will she win a race? even a top 15?? when will she get naked??
3. New Ride/Sponsors. Kasey Kahne in a Hendrick car?? Clint Bowyer driving a Toyota?? A.J. Allmendinger in a Penske car? Kurt Busch driving for PHOENIX RACING??? No more Red Bull Cars??
4. Plate Racing. Will NASCAR eliminate the two car draft and bring back pack racing at plate tracks by limiting driver communication and tweaking the car(radiator, water temp, ect.)??
5. Can Jimmie get back on track. Will Tony repeat? Will Carl, Kyle, or Kevin finally win their first??
