Yesterday's 60th running of the NASCAR's Daytona 500 was amazing! The driver of the 3 car, Austin Dillon won. It was so interesting because he won exactly 20 years to the day in the 3 , that the late Dale Earnhardt won the 500 in the 3 car. Austin Dillon is Richard Childress (the car owner's) grand son. He as a kid, stood with Earnhardt in Victory Lane all those many years ago. Who would have thought that the young kid would end up driving the 3 years later and winning the 500 exactly 20 years later. Did any of you watch the race yesterday?

I thought no one was using the #3. Thought it was retired to the earnhardt family?

Wasn't that Danica Patrick's last race?

Yes, and it was sad because around half way, there was a big crash that she was involved with, so she didn't get to finish the race.
