Matt Kenseth Wins At Daytona
It wasn’t the finish I wanted. I hate rain outs. I want them to race to the end.
The rain was coming, and Matt Kenseth knew it was time to get going.
It was the Daytona 500, a race where drivers wait until the very end to make their big move for NASCAR’s biggest prize.
Only this time, nobody knew when the end would be.
The rain that had threatened Sunday’s season-opening race all day finally rolled in moments after Kenseth slid past Elliott Sadler for the lead, and the former NASCAR champion was forced to sit out a 20-minute delay before claiming victory. It was just the fourth rain-shortened 500 in the race’s 51-year history, and first since Michael Waltrip’s 2003 victory.
So what did you think about the race?

Sounds like a lame way to win a race. I would have wanted my money back. It is a race, not a rain.
