The name should be changed to "Gatorade Dual Duel"

That would work....

N.

LOL! Or the Dual Gatorade Duels....

Why did they want to kill the (admittedly slang) term "The Twins"? Worried
about some possible redneck sexual connotation? Puh-Lease! I still call it
the Twins...and never think about boobs when I do.

Probably something Gatorade did to put their own stamp on it - aren't
they fairly recent named sponsors?

Gatorade has been sponsoring the Q races for several years. The "Duels"
moniker came around when they changed the length from 125 miles to 150
miles, IIRC

Liar Sim! U know u get visions when u hear the word Twins.

I shouldn't admit this--But when Tim Allen of 'Home Improvement' fame
mentioned Big Jim & The Twins, i got an 'out of body experience'
of viewing myself from behind. I know--that's too much info, but it's
just one more man's 'sperience, eh?

Shame on Nancy for not being like Doc G & just asking--
How do u qualify for the Daytona 5 Hunnert?
instead of cornfusin the issue by questioning if it's by the Duals or Duels

CRU-a Twin Lover, double yore pleasure, double yore fun, etc.

First race is the Budweiser Shootout - 8:00 p.m. pre-race; race at 8:30
p.m., on TNT cable channel. The times given are EST. This is a
no-points race. Doesn't the Shootout set the lineup for the twin
Gatorades? The below is from USA Today:

"'I said a couple of years ago this race is like a bar fight on four
wheels,' said Earnhardt, who won the Shootout in 2003.
"'I'm pretty sure when it comes to partying and raising hell, I run
harder than any of these guys, so this race suits my style.'"
Carey in Manvel

That sounds like something DEJ would say.

I sure hope he wouldn't say that just cuz he was paid by his sponsor
to focus attention on a Bud(weiser) event?
CRU-liking DEJ's style more & more

I WUZ REEDING A LONG HEAR AND WUNDERING WHEAR TO ASK THAT KWESTION.

HOW DEW THEY CUE WALLY FIE FOR THE DAYTONA 5OOnert???

On a serious note, I'm also reading about the twins being 150s??
Was that change made shortly after someone won his 125 on a single
tank without a pit stop?

Who & when for a serious wayback trivia for ya?
and bonus points for the crew chief.....

HAVE I MENSHUNNED THAT I YAM SIKED ABOUT THIS SEEZUN???

(reading Sr. Trout in the a.v.l.v. group has influenced my posting
style ;-)

What did I miss? They aren't gonna call it the Twin 125's this year?
They gonna change Daytona 500 to Florida Seaboard 500 too while they are at
it? WTF,O?

I am hopeful that Tony wins his 3rd championship this year; but am not
holding my breath. I am thinking Edwards could pull it off this year.

Well, they called them the Twin 150's; but what the fuck is this thing
about the Dual's of Daytona or some crap? I prefer they keep it the Twins.
Next thing you know, they will get rid of North Wilksboro or
something.......

Apparently Doc G was distracted by the return of the last

Crew Chief to bring a win to Petty Enterprises?
Plus a real CC in Todd Parrott, a former champion driver too?
Die Hards apparently always keep juice (hope) in them!

CRU-who also struggles to keep up with so many damn changes for change sake!
