The Daytona 500 started was supposed to start Sunday around 1:30. Nearly 36 hours later, Matt Kenseth crossed the finish line for his second Daytona 500 victory. Kenseth survived a race that was full of wrecks and held off a way-too-late push by Dale Earnhardt Jr for the victory.

The most surprising star of the night was Brad Keselowski who took the opportunity to tweet during the race. When it was all said and done, Keselowski more than tripled his follower count to more than 200,000. Now we will just wait to see how Daytona did in the ratings.If Twitter and jet fuel explosions are any indication, they should be huge.
