Pace Laps
Why didn’t Jewel sing the National Anthem?
Great to see Shav Glick, the legendary sportswriter, give the command, instead of some Hollywood phony with a show on Fox!
Race Grade: C+
Greg Biffle turned this one into a yawner, but it’s a good thing it wasn’t the Auto Club 400, or it would have received a flunking grade!
F for Fantasia
How did she win "Idol’? Remember Fantasia"¦the anthem is about our COUNTRY, not about YOU! Also while you are doing your theatrics to make yourself seem more important than you are, remember that some people would like to sing along… because they love their country!
D for Greg Biffle’s Luck
Greg stunk up the show for 400 miles, and then his car stunk up the place when the motor went poof! Perhaps Biff drew the short straw this week when they were handing out motors over at Roush Racing!
C for Brian Vickers
Driver and team fought real hard to come back from a pit road speeding penalty. If Vickers can pick up the program just a little bit, he won’t hear footsteps from the Hendrick development drivers!
B for Casey Mears
Maybe that Havoline paint job on the 42 car is channeling the talent of Davey Allison to its new driver! Casey went from almost being booted out of a ride last season to the best driver Ganassi has in the stable. There is no doubt this kid has talent when he gets a car that works all day!
A for Matt Kenseth
Had the second best car Sunday, but took advantage when the best car, his teammate, couldn’t make it the distance. Matt stayed out of trouble all day driving a smart race with a strong car. He is back in Championship form again!
Extra Credit for JJ Yeley
Not only did he finish in eighth place, but also he looked good doing it! Here is another guy with a lot of talent in sprint cars that might finally be putting it all together in the bigger stock cars. Gibbs Racing got criticized for putting Yeley in this ride, but now it is looking like a great move.
