I hope I'm not duplicating a post.  The Wood Brothers Ford win at Daytona with a 20 year old rookie driver was fantastic.  Another Ford was second.

Fords finished 1-2-3.  Just like in '56, almost.

Ford won the last two races last year and started out this year on the right track, maybe they have things turned around! I sure have gotten tired of watching the scrubs and yo's winning. The good too me was that this 20 year old young man was polite and well spoken, not like some of the wise ass kids that have come along in the past few years. I sure hope the Wood Bros can keep the team funded and run all year.

All that means is that the NASCAR "good ol boys" will be slowing the Fords down. Probably new rules by the next race. They call it "leveling the playing field". I call it "scrub rules" Chuck in NH

Wow.  Ford finished 1, 2,3!!!!!!  Gonna be a rule change announced asap as the bowtie boys can’t have that!  Remember the AMA racing ban of 1957?  Just kidding (I hope).  Sounds like the stars were all aligned for this one.  Congrats goes to those teams running the Fords.  Great Job!

Anybody notice Jack Roush congratulate the driver? Understand he took Wood Bros under his wing last summer, Wingo Crewed for Mark Martin at one time. Really great to see the 21 car back in the hunt.

I heartily agree that it's great to see Fords back in victory lane,especially the 21 and especially when it is painted up to look like the 21 of old.As others have said,if this goes on very long,you can bet Nascar will do something to guarantee that Fords do not continue winning.

However,the "dog fashion" racing has to be sorriest and most ridiculous thing I've ever seen on a race track.

also, if JR. had won, we'd still be hearing about it, but since fords came in 1.2.3. they interviewed all the loseing gm drivers and the race was over 10 min. later. they even slowed everone down 3 times to give the gm boys the chance to win. the only thing i didn't like was when biffle took out kenseth, who's side is he on, he took two fords out completely, really screwed up my fantasy score, i only got 244, well better try next week. it's great to see a rookie win with the woods brothers and #21. the chevy guys kept shoveing him back to the middle of the field and he just shoved them back to the front, i loved it. i didn't care for that stunt that ragan pulled on the restart. he should have waited and jumped in behind, he would have gotten second. i read where Roush had a machine out of whack in the shop, they've got it fixed now, mabey we'll have a good year, go fords!

I think the Kid is under contract thru Roush to run all of the 16 woods brothers Sprint cup races this year, he will run Nationwide races for Jack. One of Jacks old drivers could be outside looking in next year.
