Yes
Sorry to bust your dream, but there's a reason he's won as many races as he has, as much as I can't stand him he's got an amazing talent for driving a race car. No matter how good of a driver someone might be on the road, you get on a track with a professional and they'll make you look like a kid trying to figure out how to drive for the first time in your life. Been there, done that, bent up and twisted plenty of sheet metal...have the fireproof jacket instead of the T-shirt.:L
For what corvette's are capable of doing, I wish everyone that has one could manage to take a driving course to really teach them how to drive.
As for the Daytona 500 this year...did I miss a rule change? Twice at Daytona, once during the 500 and I forget if the other one was the truck race or the Nationwide series, there was a wreck going on, on the last lap, and the leaders got to race back to the flag. I think both cases nascar simply stalled on waving the yellow flag until after the leader crossed the finish line, but was this a rule change or is nascar still just playing god with their own rule book and pretty much just doing whatever they feel like doing. During the race for safety purposes I can totally agree with not racing back to the flagstand, on the white flag lap I think they should take a common short track approach to it, leave the green light on, let them race back to the flag, flash the yellow to alert everyone there's a problem on the track somewhere...although most if not all the drivers probably know from their spotters that there's trouble before the yellow light comes on anyways.
