OUR car just won the Daytona 500!

I know not everyones a huge NASCAR fan, but if you like Ford you'll enjoy this! Trevor Bayne 20 years and 1 day old just won the Daytona 500 in his 1st start in the 500 and 2nd overall. This is our car because its the 21 Motorcraft sponsored Ford. Owned by the legendary Wood Brothers. This was one of the biggest upsets in NASCAR history! Best 500 I've seen in a while! GO FORD!

BTW Ford went 1,2,3!

With the exception of the very first Daytona 500, he's the only driver to win it on his first attempt.

The kid ran clean and paid attention to the lessons the veterans gave him. Also didn't hurt that the 21 was a really fast car. Glad to see a young guy get a win and hope that he keeps his feet grounded.
