Daytona 500 night before thoughts

So, the prerace is not even on, the race track is not even close to open, I would think. It's 2 AM CST, and the prerace is about 9 hours away, but here are my thoughts on the Daytona 500, the opening of the 2003 Winston Cup season. So far I have to agree with what my father has said, that the Chevy's, specifically the DEI and RCR cars, have done very well, with Dale Earnhardt Jr. winning all three of the races thus far in speed week in Daytona, and he is the hand down favorite for a good number of fans to win the Daytona 500. "Three times, Dale Earnhardt Sr. won all the preliminary races, only to come up short in the Daytona 500 - a race he didn't win until his 20th try. " See you all back here around 10:30 or so for the pre race round up.
