NASCAR Daytona special?

[cydswipe]

Since the actual Daytona event is today, has anyone checked if there is anything unlocked or received for signing in today?

I don't believe so. My login bonus was 6 museum cards and 6 paints.

Checked it out, nuthin'. I was hoping for a Dale Sr. #3 car or something cool like that.

Why would they unlock anything just because?

You will never see that car/number in any game that was made after his untimely death.That car/number is retired out of respect to the best Nascar driver ever.

Not true at all. It was in several NASCAR games i belive going back to 2001. the last one it was in was 07 i think as unlockables. And the number isnt retired, it's owned by RCR. No numbers can be retired in NASCAR. RCR dosen't want to use the number in cup, And NASCAR promiced they would not lease it to anyone else. So its more of an agreement

NASCAR Thunder 2003 and 2004 let you play as him in the #3 , dunno when it was made though.

I could have swore that Dale Jr. Ran #3 after his dad died?

I will bet you whatever you want that number 3 will never be seen on a Cup car ever again.Yes you are correct and I watched a show on the 10th anniversary of his death last week,the number is retired. Permanently.Right out of Chidress's own mouth.
