I think were pretty optimistic were going to have any cars left to do overtime. Lets check with vince. Jeff gordon described it as bumper cars, kyle. Whatd you see out there . Not much lace for you to go. No, i seen the 19 and the 2 really fighting for a spot. For my Vantage Point thats all i could see. I could tell we were going to wreck. I tried to check up a little bit. Then its on from behind me. But nothing else you can do from there, i guess vr its funny when the guys behind you get through the wreck and theyre able to go on the rest of the way. I hated for our m m camry still pushing to 13, working really good together. I was going to push him to see if i couldnt get farther, give ourselves a chance to win. Hopefully benefit our teammates can do it. Thanks, kyle. Thanks, tell mates denny hamlin and and matt kenseth running first and fourth. Wow, a lot of damage there. Wow. Carl edwards who moments challenge for the win. Last year in this race, half the field ended up wrecked in the garage. And we were hoping not to have a repeat of that tonight. However, thats pretty much where we are. Well im not going to say anything about the attrition rate anymore. Like you said, business picked up. You just become so aggressive and you cant let out the throttle. Youve got to stay on the gas. If that means pump along guy, trying to push him forward so you can go forward, sometimes it pays off. When it doesnt, hello down the straightaway, thats kind of been a staple of daytona racing for a long time. And tonight. It has been and you can do it, youve just got to be careful, make sure youre squared up on that bumper. If they start to weave back and forth youve got to get off of that bumper of the person in front of you. Reality is, im not surprised. I expected this to happen in this race. I did too. Lets join matt with Denny Hamlins crew chief. Anner jeer for much of kenny hamlins success at daytona, the rookie crew chief mike wheeler, my crew chief thinks youre about good to go on fuel. What do you think looking at your calculations . I hope larry macks right. I think we can do this one. If we get extra time here, might come up short. Which kind of stinks. Hes running good, were happy to be here. Describe the excitement and the nerves. Your first time especially in a situation like this. So far, so good. Not too bad. Luckily its a nonpoints race and you can have fun. Hopefully well get back to victory lane. Good luck. Thank you. Heres vince. A little bit frustrated, would elshow you the replay with carl edwards. Whatd you feel like happened there . Well brads still not going to let me in, i learned that. From the replay i saw, looked like thats pretty much my fault. I stuck it in this here, highrisk maneuver. I thought, okay. Weve got a shot. I knew i had to get in front of brad. He got a little bit more of a run i thought. I could feel him. I shouldnt have come up that far, thats my fault. We came down here to win this race. Had a lot of fun, learned a bunch. Sorry to the guy whose car i tore up. Like to end them something. Man. Just having fun. I dont know. Thats the kind of race it is. I wouldnt feel right if i didnt try to get up there. I just went too far. Understand that. Thanks, carl. Fun while it lasted. Carl edwards.

Youll see all of tonights drivers and nearly 20 more hopeful of earning one of the 40 starting positions in the 500. Mike, overtime. Were going to overtime. Overtime nascar style yeah, baby. All right, here heres newt rule. Theyll wave the green flag at start finish as usual. And if it is a clean restart and the leader makes it around to the overtimeline on the back straightaway without the caution flag waving, then the next flag, yellow or checkered, will end the race. If the leader doesnt get to the overtime line before the caution waves the line will back up and do it again. Again flag in overtime. Denny hamlin, joey logano, and the rest of the field. Look how organize the outside see if that pays off for the 22 and the 20. Larson fell way back down. Shifted gears, i dont know if he didnt just lost a little momentum, i guess. If he goes on the outside, this things over for him. But he didnt. Ended up going back to the inside. Here they come on the outside three wide. Theres the overtime line. We made it to the line. Can we make it to three more . Can we make it back around . 42 going to the top of the 20. 42 first to recover. The 22 and 11 being side by line. Here. White flag this time. Hamlin back to the front. One thing i bet you hamlin doesnt do is go below that yellow line when he comes down here for the win. Wow. Whoa whoa. No all at the back. We may make to it the leaders on the back straightaway. Coming hard. Caution waves. Its over. Caution, hell yeah 25 cars start. Eight cars finish. Denny hamlin must still make it around to the checkered flag under reduced speed. And he will be the sprint unlimited winner for the third time in 11 tries. What a great game hamlin, checkered flag, wins logano great job, great job. Well, well done, man. 21 caution laps made it happen. Hes feeling good right now. New crew chief. Hamlin. Second most in the history of the sprint unlimited. As coach joe gibbs leads the team prayer. Its hamlins sixth win at daytona. And his fifth in speed weeks. It will be the eighth time coach gibbs goes to victory lane in the unlimited. Heres the hey medical on the last lap. Looked like hamlin put a big block on the 27 car. The 20 gets in there behind menard. And then as they got into turn one, looked like they just ran out of room between the 20 and the 1. He was side by side with the 2. Then kind of the 78 in that as well. Woo. One wreck right after another, its amazing. It happens when the 11 blocked the 27s run, the 20 was behind him, stalled them out a little bit. The 1 car had momentum coming to the center. He saw an opening there. And then the closing laps of these races as i mentioned before, you dont check up. You dont lift. You cant if youre going to win the race. Stay in the gap even if that gap closes right in front of produce. Yeah, you cant drive your car and the other guys. When the other buy has trouble youre going to hit him and thats going to cause more trouble. Its just causes a big, big mess. Gosh. The car in the garage area for heavens sake. The car that won the race is torn up. Whole right side caved in. See how much fuel he has here to do his burnout. Oh, he got Joe Gibbs Racing has wowo the unlimited four of the last five years. He was very kind to the beautiful grass. He got the memo on the grass. You tear up the grass, youre going to pay for it. Not sure about all this. A lot of smoke. Thats pretty awesome.

You know, this is a leaderdriven race as weve seen. And luckily we were able to bring it home. Good luck. Looking for his first daytona 500 next weekend. He was second two years ago. Jamie . Joey logano, for a minute i thought it was going to be a photo finish between you and denny. You send up second. Done differently on the last lap . Id have to watch the replay. I saw the 27, looked like he was going to try to put it three wide, which is a good move on his part. I had to block that. Then i saw the 42 with a big run. I went to get that push. And then i just seen kyle get really loose behind me. Then there was a lot of the smoke. At that point you lost all your help. The replay, i missed it. Overall im so proud what was that teams done. Shows were picking up where we left off with the shell pennzoil 14. Looking forward to get to the 500. Defending daytona 500 winner, says he has a shot at the pole tomorrow, guys. Thanks jamie.

Folks a the home, that was no a individual grow came, that was real life, real cars and drivers sliding all over the place, a wild way to get 2016 started. Wild is the word. Wild and great start for speed weeks for denny hamlin. And hamlin, he had the surgery on his right knee in the offseason. The wreck early, was involved, you saw the tape on lap 13. He leads the most laps with his new crew chief. The third different crew chief in the last three years. Mike wheeler was always with the team. He says this is the last crew chief ill ever have. After this start, i think theyre at a pretty good connection here. Denny loves wheeler. Wheels they call him. Theyve got a great relationship, they complete each others sentences. I talked to denny, he said i dont know what to expect, havent raced since november, how my going to do . Looks like he did pretty good. That move to block the big run paul menard had was amazing. This is the setup or a sampling of the daytona 500, denny hamlin, age 35, hasnt won a daytona 500 what do you expect from him and some of the others trying to get that position for the running of the Great American race . You look at the crew chief driver combination. Jimmie johnson, chad knauss, the magic they had. Dave rogers, kyle busch. Those rips get you over that next to the next level.

We have cold air in place and that will continue to remain in place as we work our way through the rest of the week. We started 26 degrees today and ended up at 41 this afternoon and typically we are supposed to be a 55 degrees for daytime high. A highpressure system that brought us the clear skies also brought us the colder air.

Many of them shared a mail at the Community Center not just with each other but also with their brothers and sisters of all beliefs.

The director of American IslamicOutreach Foundation said gatherings like these are perhaps far more important now than ever before because of growing islamaphobia. Theres a universal axiom that if you dont know something what we are going to do is we are going to have strong borders and we are going to have a lot. As the president ial race draws closer he says that fear is exactly what some candidates manny donald trump are capitalizing on. I think its very sad to see that someone is using fear tactics to attract borders, fearing that muslims should not be allowed to come in. All of these things are against the Core Principles and values of america. Still many who came to tonights dinner are hopeful this is just a taste of Better Things to come. The biggest takeaways that they are very peaceful, very loving and they give back. We want people to know that islam and muslims are here to in fort mill kevin may check box 46 and wjzy. Jenna members of the American IslamicOutreach Foundation hope to have additional programs like this in the near future perhaps monthly. They encourage everyone to come.

We are tracking a storm that could affect the beginning of your workweek. Meteorologist amanda cox as the day by day forecast. We are expecting to see some pretty quiet conditions for the rest of the weekend but as we that is when things will become more active. We will talk about that in a minute but heres a shot at unc Charlotte Peggy can see the moon out there. We have clear skies across the region and due to the highpressure system that has brought the drier air in place. The highs will continue to remain near the regions are overnight hours. In the clear skies around as well as cold conditions but the storm system to the west will be affecting your area. Notice temperatures in the 20s. We are dropping very quickly. We have teens further to the north and it does look like the windchills are quite a bit less than they were earlier today but still very cold up there and enough of a preset it feels like the teens for most locations. It feels like four degrees below zero in boone at this hour or so very cold across the region. We are headed to 16 degrees for an overnight low, frigid temperatures and their highs only going to be able to climb into the 30s for tomorrow afternoon. Extra cloud cover is the day rolls on but thats because the storm system will be getting much closer to our area. You see the clouds start to thicken up, little bit of snow will sneak in. Most of it should hold off until after nine or 10 00 as we get closer to midnight. Thats when we will see a little bit of the snow coming in but then the warm front will be lifting northward quickly so they snow may last into the Early Morning hours on monday and start to transition over to raines snow sleet freezing rain mixtures of the wintry mix is the warmer air aloft starts to filter in. Eventually that the wintry mix will be around during the Morning Hours and transition to all rain before all of this lifts off to the north and east and we start to see things winding down. Most of us should move out of here by Tuesday Morning and we will see things drying out for a good portion of the day on tuesday. Behind that elite under will be coming in tuesday night into that will be a fast maneuver and it doesnt have a lot of moisture with it. Snowfall totals or so what we can expect anywhere from two to 4 inches may be upwards of five or 6 inches in locally higher spots across the higher terrain.
