# 8 JR.wins bud shootout qualifying sun 1pm fox. we'll have to wait till thurs. for the GATORADE TWIN 125's qualifiers. to see who the contenders will be.7 days till the daytona 500

very happy girl to see her boy win last night WOO HOO! great way to start the season!!

jenn, yep #8 looks like the one to beat and just think that wasn't his 500 car!!

Bad news for D.E. Jr. unfortunatley all the races are not at restrictor plate tracks. He will not compete for the championship until he can master some of those also.

This will be either Mark Martin's or Tony Stewart's (again) season.

I'd like to see mark win the cup if anyone deserves it he sure does.jr.lost almost half a season last year due to that concussion.he was racing but just wasn't himself.i don't know about a championship but i do know he can drive like hell with or without plates.

maybe not championship yet...but I say keep an eye on the rookie of the year!!!;)

Let's talk about some real HP! ;)

Looks like about 6000 hp to me.....Talk about a natural high....!!

i dunno.....the 500 was rained out.....

then sun I was rooting for Jr. of course...:rolleyes: and Newman...who was doing pretty well at first...but then he wasnt toward the end..:(

at least ONE of my favorites got the win though.....;)

dug this baby out of the archives......interesting to see how our picks for champions are working out!!!!
