Well, this is hard one to pick because qualifying times are
pretty much meaningless, and practice was in the day whilst
the race is a night...
The Win: Greg Biffle - he's been decently fast on track in
both quals & practice, and he's about due for some success
(and the race is short enough that hopefully the car won't
break before it's over).
1 - Kyle Busch reprises his CTS race by running into something
or someone and hurting the car enough to leave him with a
mid-pack finish.
2 - Bobby Labonte, who looked sharp in quals, prevails over
Newman, Busch, and Montoya to be the best of the Dodges.
3 - Truex did not practice well but ran good in quals, he
follows up the latter with a T5.
4 - Elliott Sadler wins the Open.
5 - precisely 4 of 25 cars do not complete the race.

Well, I claim an MVM point or two - I was close, at least.

Right idea, wrong details.

Well, he looked strong early, and he did outrun Montoya
and Busch. But not best of the Dodges.

Never saw him all night. In fact, there were a bunch of guys
who might as well have gone back to the hauler after the
introductions, for all the TV attention they got (Truex, Bowyer,
Mears, etc).

I wonder how long it will take him to view that accident as the
same as the "stupid rookie mistake" that took him out of the
Darlington race?

2 cars did not complete the race.
