Dueling for Big Dollars- Fantasy Insight Gatorade Duels
2/14/08: SOZ Studios, MI - By Dennis Michelsen "DMIC" (RaceTalkRadio.com)
Anyone with a fast car and a dream has a shot at qualifying for the Daytona 500! The Gatorade Duels have been setting the field for the Great American Race since that very first race 50 years ago. Back in 1959 the qualifying races featured hardtops and convertibles and set the field of fifty-nine entries for the big race. A lot has changed since that fateful day but the Gatorade Duels will set the final spots and layout the starting grid for the 50th edition of the Daytona 500. Who will win? Which long shots will make the show? Tune into SPEED TV and watch it all live today starting at 2pm Eastern. If you are stuck at work head over to www.racetalkradio.com and we will keep you updated all afternoon! Its time to start your engines and see who will make the Great American Race!

Last Week's Results: Bud Shootout (Winner, 2nd, 4th)
Duel One
Winner- Dale Earnhardt Jr
Junior will continue his memorable Speedweeks!
Transfer Spots- Brian Vickers and Kenny Wallace
Red Bull Racing will be much better in 2008 and Vickers needs a strong start to his season! Kenny Wallace is a great restrictor plate driver and will find a way to will his car into the transfer spots for the Great American Race.
Duel Two
Winner- Tony Stewart
Smoke will want to see if he can keep his Toyota out front!
Transfer Spots- Dale Jarrett and Patrick Carpentier
Call me sentimental but it would be wrong for Dale Jarrett to go home without racing in one more Daytona 500. Race fans will be impressed by Patrick Carpentier's ability on the track and also charmed by his personality off the track too.
