I do not remember them restarting single row, crazy how different this sport has become

What track is it? i go high some times. These under experience, learn.

Jr randomly gets that second wind💀
Every time I see the 2007 500 Mark Martin wins but he doesn't I was so deflated watching it I'm sure he was as well
the engine.
When Kurt Busch won the 2017 Daytona 500 , not only was it his first 500 win , it was his first restrictor plate win .
I live in Daytona a I stg the 500 weekend its cursed for rain. Like it literally barely rains in February in Daytona, only on 500 weekend 😂
This is the best reminder to keep Larry McReynolds and Darrell Waltrip OUT of the broadcast booth
2016 best finish to a daytona 500 ever
2020 was one of the best finishes to a 500, so was 2007 and 2016.
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Biffle might be one of the best superspeedway racers to never get the trophy. So many close ones
Does anyone know what happened to Carl Edward and Jamie mcmurry
Crazy how many times they threw a caution when they’re 100 feet from the start finish line
Wide open, tap the brake.
Dale, I'm not the best fan, but he is one of the greatest drivers ever.
post Dale. miss him man. every day and im 30
Wrd Burrton, Bill Davis racing.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. was so f((((kin good.
they learn a hard lessen.
Man every boomer complains about NASCAR not being what it used to be, but those finishes in the early 2000's had no drama lol
Larry McReynolds was SO underrated as a commentator
Kurt Busch is a lucky man.
Lol Danica Patrick

Why do they move the start finish line
2015, I was there
Tony Stewart really had the chance to win like 3 of these

2014 is my favorite 500 for obvious lol
