Last lap crash took out my preferred driver. Nice to see a few "little" guys with top 10 finishes.

It was good to see some of the "little" get top ten finishes.

I went to the race today in Las Vegas and I must say I have a new respect for drivers. I had seen races on TV but this was my first time seeing one live. I don't know how Danica does it because it has to take huge balls to do this. I couldn't believe how fast and close the cats were to each other. There is very little room for error. Life on the line every second out there. Crazy stuff. And I thought I knew how to drive. On a side note, it did feel a little weird being the only black person out there. But then again, everyone was so drunk, I think kids included, that probably nobody noticed.

My first intro to NASCAR was at Vegas Motor Speedway too. My reaction was just the same as yours - except for the black part

We did the helicopter ride in. When the race was over the sky looked like Apocalypse Now.
