Bill Elliott To Attempt 2007 Daytona 500
Thursday January 4, 2007
It was announced this week that Bill Elliott would attempt to qualify for the 2007 Daytona 500. Although Elliott retired from full-time competition after the 2003 season, he ran 10 events last year including the Daytona 500, where he finished 19th. Elliott has won the Daytona 500 twice in his career. Can he still get the job done in 2007?

Happy motoring Bill
Bill was good in his day. He will never be the driver he use to be. He’s just going to be in the way of the cookie cutters drivers on the track.
drive it like it’s stolen ,Bill!!!!!
If I remember correctly, ‘Wild Bill’ should be 50. If so, give em’ hell Bill. Great guy, & great driver. Just go home healthy. A real gentleman. You deserve one more big one.
Best of luck, whatever banner you fly. I, like so many, would love to see your smilin’ face lookin’ out the window of a Ford. If it’s something else we’ll deal with it. It’s the man we all like. The engine that pushes him around the track is secondary.
Good Luck Bill. I am always watching for you, that way I know if I want to watch the whole race or not. If you are there, so am I.
I HAVE FOLLOWED NASCAR FOR ABOUT 45 YEARS AND AT ONE TIME ABOUT 25 YEARS AGO IT WAS GREAT.AND WENT TO A FEW OF THE RACES.NOW,COUNT ME OUT.NASCAR TRIES TO CONTROL THE RACESAND ALTHOUGH THEY DON T PICK OUT THE WINNER(YET)THEY LIKE TO KEEP IT EXCITING FOR THE FANS BY THROWING ALL THOSE FLAGS. NOT REAL RACING.I TRIED TO WATCH A COUPLE RACES LAST YEAR BUT COULDN T WATCH THE FINISH. ITS LIKE WATCHING A STAGED EVENT.I KNOW OF A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME OPINION,AND THEY HAVE QUIT WATCHING ALSO.TOO BAD,ONCE WAS A REAL EVENT.I ALSO HAVE CONTACTED SOME OF NASCAR’S ADVERTISERS TO LET THEM KNOW THEY ARE WASTING TIME AND MONEY TRYING TO GET TO ME AND OTHERS.NASCAR IS ON THE DOWNHILL SLOPE. WATCH WHAT I TELL YOU IN A FEW YEARS. WARREN MILLER
awesome bill From Dawsonville ga Go Bill Elliot!!!!

Good luck at Daytona!
Michael Shanley, TEAM SCP
Go Yankees!
he should crash and burn
john, you should flush yourself down the JOHN.
bill elliot is the biggest scumbag on earth,after a race my friend built a racecar,and on the hood he was having drivers sign their names,he was to auction it off and all monies raised going to easter seals,bill scumbag said and i quote because i have it on video tape “if i had a dollar for every charity thing i did,i’d be rich”
i hope he hits the wall very hard…
to you…i hope you crash and burn
a hole
John JOHN now you hurt my feelings. Did your 5 year old come up with that comment for you?
Yo Robert, show me your video of Bill and I will show you mine of the JFK assination.
james
give me a way to send it to you,and i will
Isn’t he in anyway, as a past champion?
Being from Ga, I hope Bill does well. But, even if he doesn’t, I hope he does something exciting, so that he gets an interview. I really enjoyed watching him give an interview, especially after he was taken out of a race. He can give a VERY intertaining interview
In any car it’s great to see Bill Elliott out there.
I have read all the good comments and I have read all the bad. I see that lots of people still have ill feelings toward our champ, just as they did in the mid 80’s. As told so many times Bill is of but few words. He does his talking on the track. Hmmm, I just wonder why NASCAR came up with those restrictor plates? Did Awesome Bill really warp their world that much. You know 212 is very fast. As said earlier take the plates off and let Bill loose.
All the very best to the best.Still waiting for them to name the Most Popular Driver Award After You as was stated a while back.
hope you are in a ford, i am a real fan of yours and love a ford, it broke my heart to see you drive a dodge and a chevy, you don’t look right in anything but a ford
Growing up in Atlanta, especially in racing the scene,I watched Bill come up
through the shorts tracks and move to
dominate the Nascar events in 1985.
He is clever and could pick them off in Daytona. All he needs is a good setup and good engine.Go Bill…#37 watch out boys….
Does anyone know Bills 2007 schedule yet?? If so, how do I find it?
Great job Bill, good luck at daytona and your 21 car is great and sponsors will be very happy TEAMSCP1
