Duel 1 is over and here were the top 5 finishers: 88-24-22-14-15. Congrats to Dale Jr. Kenseth was strong throughout but got shuffled back and Jr. never relinquished the lead after that.

Hamlin and Patrick had a bit of an argument after the race about Hamlin dumping her again for the second time this week. Hamlin says he never touched her and Patrick claims he was intentionally bumping her to make her loose. Stewart interjected late in the conversation and told Hamlin that maybe he should watch a replay. Stay tuned...

OK, I didn't get to watch the duels as I was busy working. But, do anybody else here feel like Danica has had a rough go of it in NASCAR? I'd like to see her succeed but I feel like she is tearing up a lot of cars. Is it her inability to drive or are these other drivers not cutting any slack like they do each other? Sure I know its next to inevitable when there is a crash in front of you. But she just seems to be getting beat up and I'm not totally sure if its by her peers or her racecar. What does everyone think?

I think she is fine when she runs up front with good drivers but when running at the back with the retards she seems to find trouble. I think guys try and intimidate her for sure.

Big news today in Nascar!! Kurt Busch found guilty of smashing his girlfriends face into the motorhome at Dover last year and has been suspended indefinately from Nascar today. Tony said if things go sideways on this he had a plan B. Any guess's out there who will be driving the 41 car for this year?

I for one wouldn't mind banging into her a few times either.

More on Busch......Stewart Haas has responded they respect Nascar's decision and will announce a new driver for the Daytona 500 and beyond in a short time. Rumours already are circulating it will be Regan Smith. Also Chevrolet has announced they are cutting all ties with Busch and may announce more penalties or repercussions at a later date. It appears Mr. Busch is burning all his bridges in this sport? I say good riddance!
