NASCAR COMES THRU WITH ANOTHER STELLAR PROMOTION: Just when we think the NASCAR folks are letting us down, they come up with yet another crackerjack promotion that just oozes creativity and functionality, much like the drive-thru menu at Bojangles.

This time, the good ole boys (and some random celebs like Michael Strahan, Barry Switzer, Brady Quinn, Mookie Wilson and Leah Remini of “King of Queens”) have been enlisted to design tickets for the Daytona 500. Fans will vote on the *best* design and that ducat design will be used for the race:

As you would expect, the results are rather spectacular.

Mario Andretti:

Kurt Busch:

Jeff Gordon Pit Crew Chief Steve LeTarte:

Michael Strahan:

Brady Quinn:

Barry Switzer:

Leah Remini (WTF?)

We’re just bummed that none of them are truly authentic, since we did not detect an artist’s rendering of a Carolina Mustard BBQ stain on any of the entries.
