Sutil says first KERS test will be key

Adrian Sutil says the final test day at Barcelona tomorrow will be a critical one for Force India as it runs its Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) for the first time ever. The team launched its latest car a week later than most, and held off using 2011 additions such as KERS and the adjustable rear wing at its maiden test at Jerez. It will now try Mercedes' KERS for the first time at Catalunya tomorrow

Burton leads RCR 1-2 in second Duel

Jeff Burton beat his Richard Childress Racing team-mate Clint Bowyer to victory in the second Gatorade Duel as the 43-car field was set for Sunday's Daytona 500. Bowyer pushed the Chevrolet of his team-mate all the way from the final green flag waved with three laps to go, opening a gap that put them out of their rivals' reach on the final lap of the race. As they approached the start/finish line, Bowyer stepped out of line while trying to beat Burton on the outside, but missed victory by just five thousandths of a second

Harry Gant, Hal Needham Live Chat Replay With FanHouse


DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- FanHouse senior motorsports writer Holly Cain had another exclusive FanHouse live chat from Daytona International Speedway Saturday, this time with NASCAR legend Harry Gant (above) and stuntman and director Hal Needham.

Needham directed the classic "Smokey and the Bandit" starring Burt Reynolds, and Gant won 18 victories during 22 years of driving in the NASCAR Sprint Cup series from 1973 through 1994. Many of his wins came driving the Skoal Bandit, named after the movie.

Needham, famous in Hollywood for his stunt work before he took up directing, has authored a book on his life, "Stuntman!" that was published Feb. 9.

Below is a replay of the chat.
