The 59th running of the Daytona 500 I'd about to start. I am curious to see the new race changes.

Hoping some small team car wins.

I won't be able to watch, but I was listening to some of the changes while I was eating lunch. I don't watch NASCAR/really care about it at all, but I'd have been interested in watching some of it if I could. The changes sound cool and I think will help make it more exciting for people who don't watch it a lot.

I agree with 06. I was a big fan when I was younger. Not sure why I lost interest. But I will be watching today. Must be Daytona.

Gronk with the Monster girls was hilarious. Daytona is always fun to watch. Cheer for the small team guys!

I'd like to care but can't find a reason. Anyone got any? Oh wait I found one. Start drinking beer while watching?

Whats the point of the damage rule? Doesnt make sense.
Could it be that cars only went back out for a couple places in final standings? With the new rules you want to be in the top ten instead of needing to be 37th or 40th.

The new points in stages might make the restrictor plate racing a little more exciting with 3 races in one.

I think its stupid but Nascar is just killing itself slowly. I am watching this race but won't tune in untill Taladega. I used to watch every race.

New stages haven't really bothered me, but the 5 minute clock and the whole if you go the garage you're out think are just stupid
