                                I know we have a 2013 NASCAR thread but figured we could have a separate thread just for the Great American Race.  Green flag around 1:30 PM.
My predicted winner: Kasey Kahne
Top 5:
Kasey Kahne
Jeff Gordon
Kevin Harvick
Tony Stewart
Matt Kenseth
I would be surprised if the winner doesn't come from Hendrick, RCR, or SHR. Austin Dillon is my dark horse.

                                Can't believe Kahne, Stewart, and Harvick are gone so early.  Honestly thought that was 3 of the best 6-7 cars.

                                I hope she wins. Mainly bc I want her to take her clothes off but because they always spray champaign all over with hot models around. A little girl on girl action

                        The real racing doesn't start until the last 20 or so miles. I think Danica will get punted out the back of the pack but it would be cool if she wins.GoChiefs;1395308 wrote: Patrick surprising so far.

                                Lots of single file racing pretty much all day. 20 laps in there was a train of 41 cars and 2 random cars running in a lower lane back toward the rear.

                                Thank god there's another round of pit stops, because no one is going to pass anyone otherwise.
If it stays green, the leader after the pit stops wins.

                        Hopefully. Let's see if they stay in 2 lines for the rest of the race and try to move, or immediately reassemble into a train around the high side.GoChiefs;1395327 wrote:Someone will try something.

                                Pretty impressive race for Patrick today. Would be crazy if she won. I think Johnson steals it.

                        The experienced drivers are starting to take her to school here at the end. I figured she'd do fine until it came time to get crazy.Pick6;1395333 wrote:Pretty impressive race for Patrick today. Would be crazy if she won. I think Johnson steals it.
The yellow flew as Jr and company were about to run a train on her. It saved her position.

                                Solid race by Patrick, you'd figure she would know they are going to push on the inside. She'll learn.
I hate Johnson.

                                Danica was afraid to get freight trained by all the other drivers, she said in post race interviews.
Bet she's right. Nobody would have gone with her if she went low.

                                Hopefully the racing improves at the cookie cutter tracks.  I'll sacrifice 4 boring plate races as long as those races are more exciting.
Props to Danica, but not hard to do when everyone is just running in a line.

She did know, but Jr was coming up too fast.
