Daytona Testing



Last week, Nascar kicked off its 2008 testing at Daytona International Speedway. Testing, especially at Daytona can be a smidge tedious. Or as Dale Earnhardt, Jr. said "I'll be bored as everybody else when I'm testing myself." (USA Today)

This year's Daytona 500 will mark the first time the COT Sprint Cup cars will race at the 2. 5 mile track making testing more important and bringing out the likes of Tony Stewart, following a self-imposed two year absence.

Even with the single car runs and the adventual small packs circling the track, the most exciting part of testing is the fact that Speedweeks is only 6 weeks away!
