Restart the Race!!!

Yesterday was one of the most aggressive Daytona 500’s in recent memory. It also had a surprising winner in Matt Kenseth who in my humble opinion did not deserve that win. Nice little teary-eyed speech but you better be thanking Dale Earnhardt Jr. for wrecking all the favorites to win the race. Yes Dale Jr. ended up wrecking Brian Vickers because Vickers doesn’t know how to drive and so it was a good 10 car wreck that took out all the leaders like Kyle Busch who dominated the majority of the race.

Also I am very upset that the race got shortened with 48 laps to go. To me that ruined the integrity of the race. It is the biggest race in any form of racing and a 48 lap shootout would have had big ratings. Matt Kenseth is in the record books as the 2009 Daytona 500 but a lot of people like myself don’t think he rightfully won it. I am very disappointed that it turned out the way it did. Any other race I don’t care, but this is the biggest race of the year and it ended in horrible fashion.

I hope in 2010 the rules will have changed and that the race must go all 200 laps even if its rain delayed until the next day. I am angry right now at the outcome and finish of the race. Maybe by next race I’ll be over it. Until now, my feelings are what they are.
