Spencer unhappy with TV coverage at Daytona: #41-Jimmy Spencer said he watched last week’ Daytona 500 on television after missing the field for that event. That was the first race Ive watched live on TV since 19-whatever it was, he said. Im not proud of it and Im not planning on watching any more. Spencer said he sat with his wife and their two dogs, watching the race and pulling for Dodge teammate Sterling Marlin. He also had some criticism for the coverage. I really wished the TV would have told what happened to Michael Waltrip and why did he get to the back, Spencer said. What happened to Ken Schrader? Why did he get back there? …Instead of focusing on the top one or two cars, they need to explain what happened to everyone else. …If a guy’ been in the top 10 and now he’ 18th or 20th, why is that? They should focus on that and they really dont. (ThatsRacin.com)(2-23-2002)
