What they said! It sure is a strange lineup. Should make for an
interesting race.


Winner: Dale Earnhardt, Jr. Who else could it be??

1. Although he won't win, Ken Schrader will make his presence felt
and finish in the top 10.

2. Mikey will make his presence felt too. He will finish in the top
5.

3. Front row Joe just won't have it this go. Joe Nemechek will
finish 30th or worse.

4. There will be a big one ( 10 or more cars). It will involve at
least 2 cars from the top 12 in points ( as reported before the race
begins) and at least 6 of the cars involved will not be able to
continue.

5. Michael McDowell will be the only rookie in the top 15.


Segment total to date - +9

It was an interesting race. Some new faces - or at least different
faces - running up front. Paul Menard had a good run going until he
got clipped in the tri-oval and went for a spin. Still made it back
up to 14th. Mikey leading late and then got freight trained. and a
last lap big one.

0 Woulda. Coulda, Shoulda. Leading late then dropped back in the
pack during green flag pit stops. Ended up in 10th.

+1. The big one waited for the last lap. 14 cars involved including
Jimmie Johnson and Kasey Kahne. Don't know how many of them could
have continued, but I would think at least 6 would have been out if it
were earlier in the race, so I'm taking a point.

0 No rookies in the top 15. Regan Smith was the top rookie in 22nd.
McDowell was 26th.
