Who is your favorite Nascar driver and why? Who do you think will win the Cup this year??? Carl Edwards is my favorite current driver. Cale Yarbourough is my all time favorite driver. Matt Kenseth is my pick to win the Cup this year.

My favorite driver is Carl Edwards, too. I have no clue who will get the title. I need to see how the season will start with drivers switching teams and stuff like that to see how things work themselves out. When the chase started last year I called Jimmie Johnson to win it then half way through I thought I had gotten it wrong. I was amazed to see him pull back out and take the championship. I don't really like Jimmie Johnson and really wanted Jeff Burton to win, but oh well. I can't wait for February now. I'm going through some serious NASCAR withdrawal, lol.

Serious withdrawals, I understand completely, that's why I wanted to talk about it. Directv now has Speedpass, you can ride along with 5 different drivers in each race. We have subscribed already, can't wait to use it!

I think Comcast has something like that but we don't get extras like that. Comcast even charges $5 to get the Speed Channel. We were so mad when we found that out. My dad (who we lived with before) had Dish Network and had every channel so we loved watching Speed channel. It took me months last year to get used to not watching the prerace, qualifying and all the other extras. Comcast has Speed as part of a sports package. There were no other channels we wanted in the package so we didn't get it. I can't wait for Daytona. It is like the start of my year, lol. It gives me and my husband something to talk about and something for us to look forward to on Saturday nights and Sundays (depending). Someday I hope to make it to Daytona for Speed week but probably not for many years. Maybe when the kids are grown.

If you like Carl you are going to enjoy the truck race tonight. He has the pole. I enjoyed him in 2005 he did great then in 2006-I don't know what happened he just was not focused and his attitude was bad. Hope this year is better for him. enjoy!

My favorite Nascar driver is Kevin Harvick.I like his attitude and driving style.He's a fun guy off the track and gives great interviews.I did like the more aggressive side he showed a couple years ago.He has calmed down now but I still love him.Plus he really earned my respect his first year in Cup.He was put in the 29 car right away when Big E was killed at Daytona.But he did really well driving a full schedule in both Cup and Busch.Not all those guys can do that.
