John King, driving the #7 Red Horse Racing Toyota, was the leader on the third and final green-white-checkered restart, took the white flag just as another caution came out, and was declared the winnner of the NextExa Energy Resources 250 at Daytona International Speedway. This is King's first win in just eight series starts, and is the third driver to earn his first series win at Daytona. Teammate #17-Timothy Peters finished second. Tough night for many including #13-Johnny Sauter who was having a strong run, leading on the second green-white-checkered restart, but got caught from behind by King, turning him hard into the wall, and collecting several trucks in the process. Sauter finished 25th. Rounding out the top ten were; #6-Justin Lofton, #09-Travis Kvapil, #23-Jason White, #11-Todd Bodine, #84-Chris Fontaine, #27-Ward Burton, #3-Ty Dillon, #68-Clay Greenfield. Complete race results are posted on the Daytona Race Results Page.(Unofficial)(2-24-2012)
Way to go King on surviving that wreckfest!

#30-James Buescher won the DRIVE4COPD 300 at Daytona International Speedway after an accident on the last lap took out the top 10 cars and he grabbed the lead before the caution came out. It is his first Nationwide Series win. #22-Brad Keselowski finished second followed by #2-Elliott Sadler, #88-Cole Whitt, #3-Austin Dillon, #19-Tayler Malsam, #15-Timmy Hill, #33-Tony Stewart, #38-Kasey Kehne, and #1-Kurt Busch. There were 8 cautions for 35 laps and 38 lead changes among 16 leaders. The estimated attendance was 82,000. Complete results are on the Daytona race results page (pdf).(2-25-2012)
That was one crazy ass finish! You gotta watch it, even if you don't follow NASCAR!
Cup
TBD
Roush and Hendrick cars look fast, wouldn't count anyone out in what I expect to be a crazy 500!
