and it's done...congrats Matt Kenseth.

but......

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

They could have still run...but like I said it woulda been like 9pm before they got going again...personnaly for the 500..it should have been done, but the worse thing to do would have been to wait 3 hours and then have to call it.

I just think sence nascar knew 100% this rain was comming we all did...they should have made a decision to say were racing to "XXXlaps" and then were stoping..but they could have shot them selves in the foot doing that as well...it puts them in a terrible postion.......

screw rain...nuff said.

I still think they called it a little early. They only waited 15 min. Give it an hour or two. It is the Daytona 500. If they were able to get it restarted it would have been a helluva finish.

They should start it earlier 1PM start would be fine as this give time if rain comes to wait it out a bit.

I think everyone saw enough stuff before this race during the past week. No a great Daytona 500. The Dizzy 500 was better.

I guess a lot of drivers are happy as they got out of Daytona without a wrecked race car.
