Few drivers want to take chances in Daytona 500 twin qualifying races
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Don't look for defending Daytona 500 winner Jimmie Johnson to take many chances in Thursday's qualifying race.
Johnson already wrecked one car in the exhibition Sprint Unlimited last week and really likes the Chevrolet his team has prepped and ready for "The Great American Race" on Sunday.
So Johnson was one of a handful of drivers who turned few laps in the two practice sessions Wednesday.
