The Clash' at Daytona
NASCAR fans get a double-dose of racing action to open the 2018 season on Sunday, February 11, with The Advance Auto Parts Clash at Daytona International Speedway capping a day that starts with qualifying for the 60th Annual Daytona 500. A star-studded lineup of elite drivers will battle in the 75-lap event which airs live on FS1, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio at 3:00pm/et. The annual preseason race will be run in two segments, with a competition caution at lap 25 separating the segments. Consistent with the eligibility criteria used to determine last year's Clash field, there is no pre-determined number of cars. The exclusive field is limited to drivers who were 2017 Pole Award winners, former Clash race winners, former Daytona 500 pole winners who competed full-time in 2017 and drivers who qualified for the 2017 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs.

Alex Bowman wins pole for 60th Daytona 500; Denny Hamlin second
Alex Bowman won the pole for the 60th Daytona 500, laying down a top speed of 195.644 mph in Hendrick Motorsports’ No. 88 Chevrolet.
He will be joined on the front row of the Feb. 18 race by Denny Hamlin. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver posted a speed of 195.092 mph.
Bowman’s pole is his second in the Cup Series. The first came in the fall 2016 race at Phoenix, when he was a substitute for Dale Earnhardt Jr.
The pole is the fourth straight for Hendrick Motorsports in the “Great American Race.” Bowman follows Jeff Gordon (2015) and Chase Elliott (2016-17).
Team owner Rick Hendrick ties Harry Ranier (1979-82) for the record for most consecutive Daytona 500 poles. Hendrick has won seven of the last 11 Daytona 500 poles.
The No. 88 car has started on the front row for the last five restrictor-plate races and won the pole for the last three.
Bowman called his pole run “nerve-wracking.”
“We knew we were going for the pole,” Bowman told Fox. “That’s what we’re here to do. I thought we were at a little disadvantage letting the car cool down as long as we did (between rounds) since we went pretty early in that first round. Was a little nervous for that second round. Took off well from pit road, did everything I could do. This really comes down to the crew, all the guys back at the shop.”
Hamlin, the 2016 Daytona 500 winner, will start from the front row in the Daytona 500 for the first time.
“I am literally so ecstatic,” Hamlin told Fox. “It was so out of the blue because honestly I thought today was going to be a tough day of qualifying because we focused so much on race trim yesterday. We stuck in a pack. I think we did one real mock run, which really wasn’t even a mock run. We were so far off that we just switched and made sure our car was going to run really good on Thursday and obviously next Sunday. This car is ready to race.”
The rest of the 40-car field for the Daytona 500 will be determined by Thursday’s Can-Am qualifying races.
Bowman and Hamlin were followed by Jimmie Johnson (194.734), Kyle Busch (194.704) and William Byron (194.548).
Kevin Harvick was the fastest Ford driver, posting the eighth best speed at 194.464 mph.
BK Racing’s No. 23 Toyota, driven by Gray Gaulding, did not pass qualifying inspection and did not make an attempt.
Gaulding will start from the rear of his qualifying race on Thursday.

I can't believe we didn't hear "Boogity, Boogity, Boogity" at the start of the first duel race tonight.

I can't believe we didn't hear "Boogity, Boogity, Boogity" at the start of the first duel race tonight. I shut off the voice at the start of all the FOX races to avoid hearing that goofy jerk saying that. So your news yogi is really good to hear. I guess FOX got through to the idiot.

He didn't say it at the beginning of the second race either, so there is hope.

Hope? With DW? I sure don't have much, but no race starting junk is pleasant.

I guess I've gotten so used to it that even when he doesn't say it, I still hear it in my head. Just something I'll have to learn to live with.
