Austin's Post Daytona Results

Austin started the 57 Daytona 500 in 30th position Austin had to start there because he did not lock into the race through the qualifying.  Austin got in because he finish in 15th place in the Bud Duel on Thursday night.

For the first half of the race Austin stayed back in the back no higher than 30th. With cautions  half way he worked his way up to the front. Austin had a great second half where he placed in14th

Austin went through  three cars during his speed weeks.  I am glad he finish up having a great Daytona 500. This was the second time he has been in  the All American big race of the year. Austin got in a wreck with Jeff Gordon in the last few laps. I am sure there is a lot of Jeff fan's not liking him for that.

With this being Austin's second year in the 500 I am sure he  still get's nervous when the 500 comes along away year. Austin is still  very young in the sport he will keep getting better with each 500 he races in.

I think that the more races that Austin gets under his belt the better he will become in the Sprint Cup. Good luck Austin in this weekends race.
