Appears that for some the Daytona 200 telecast was messed up. Here in
California with DirecTV and Speed, I received the last 15 laps on my
DVR, but never saw any recording for the first 28. The last 15 laps
were as exciting as any road race that I have seen, except that I no
longer follow the US National series since it went to DMG, so I had no
idea who most of the riders were in the lead pack. If you guys who did
not get to see it can find it on a torrent or something, it's probably
worth the effort.

I am interested to hear opinions on the event at the finish line.

1st 28 laps rocked pretty good also. Too bad it wasn't one cohesive
race instead of what amounted to two (or three, since I understand
there was another red flag in the second part?), but I guess crap
happens. I'd rather it be this way than someone get maimed or killed.
Boo-hiss to Speed for cutting away for "scheduled coverage" of NASCAR
truck qualifying, of all things. I don't know a single person who
watches truck racing, even among the plethora of NASCAR fanatics I
come into contact with daily here in the Deep South where the sport
originated and being in the hometown of one of the truck series
current stars (former motocross champ Ricky Carmichael).
