2. That Would Be A Great Ad
He goes into Avis with his trophy and they say no to him. That would be funny.

7. I'll grant you that.
Everybody in the Daytona 500 is pretty good, I'm sure. He still had a lot of luck on his side, and there's nothing wrong with that!:)

8. Wood Bros. 21
I am happy for the kid and especially happy to see the Wood Bros. 21 in victory lane again.

Now, if Bill Elliot can just win another race this year..... :)
