Juan Pablo Montoya takes the pole, followed by Hamlin, Logano, and Regan Smith.
A number of us got points on JPM. Usul has now wrestled third place from colchar.

This should be an interesting weekend in the Fantasy League. :ymapplause: :ymapplause:

Note that the latest issue of Duke Magazine has a story about Lesa France Kennedy (T '83) and NASCAR.

Good reading!!

It's Racing Day from Southern California!!

It rained earlier there this morning, but it's airing out, and getting sunny.

Having said that, the rain washed the rubber off the road, meaning we should have less stability early in the race.

We have just completed the first round of green flag pit stops.
Lap 46 of 200
So far, the order is:
Blech (by 6 sec), Hamlin, Vickers, Truex, Bowyer, Burton, Smoke, JPM, Martin, Kenseth, Edwards
Blech on audio doesn't care for teammate Hamlin.
Vickers running well.
Bowyer, JJ, Hamlin, JPM, Blech, and Yeley have all held the lead for at least a lap.

T minus 10 seconds before colchar throws a fit for having left Vickers on the bench.

Still early in the race, but Vickers IS racing VERY well today.

T minus 30 seconds before colchar complains about having left BOWYER on the bench. Bowyer is doing well also.

On the bright side for colchar, Smoke is moving up.

The sky is VERY cloudy.

Truex has now moved up to 2nd.

OMG... good call by Fox! One in a row!
Blech was starting to slow because he had debris on his grill. DW mentioned that Blech will move up to Bayne, and let the debris get sucked off in the draft. Sure enough, that's what happened. Good coverage of it as well.
Lap 65 of 200
STILL no yellows.
The second round of green flag pit stops is just now starting.

Lap 74
All Green Flag Pit Stops are complete
Burton got a speeding penalty
Smoke led a lap.
Blech, Hamlin, Vickers, Kenseth, Smoke, Truex, MM, JPM.
Here's some good news for colchar: MM is in the top 10.

Caution on Lap 74 for DEBRIS.
Burton just avoided being lapped, due to the yellow. Smith is the lucky dog.
Most will be coming in.
