Daytona 500: The Super Bowl Of Racing
Ah, the Daytona 500, when a young man's thoughts turn to those of pork rinds.
There's been more controversy in a week of pre-race mumbo jumbo than in an entire BALCO investigation, it seems. Matt Kenseth and Kasey Kahne got docked 50 points in the Nextel Cup standings, while Elliott Sadler and Scott Riggs got docked 25 points and Michael Waltrip got docked 100 points, all for illegal modifications to cars during last Sunday's qualifying runs. To put things in perspective, Tony Stewart missed last year's Chase for the Championship by 18 points.
