Daytona Schedule

The time has come, the first race of the season is finally here!  What seemed to be a crazy off-season, plagued by changing drivers and crew chiefs, really did help the time fly by.  

Last season I started posting the weekend schedules and it seemed to be a big hit among NASCAR fans, so as a result, I will once again be doing them this year.  If you're new to the blog and don't have the slightest idea of what I'm talking about, you'll quickly find out!
