And Usul wins for a second week!!
The race for the Fantasy League lead is still close, but I am still slightly ahead of Marvin.

Thanks! I swear, one of these days I'll get the hang of this thing. ;-)

There is an outside chance I may be on the road again this next weekend... maybe in North Carolina. That may mean I will not give updates for TWO weeks in a row. It all depends.

Just a reminder that the next race is on a Saturday night, NOT on a Sunday. Check to see the day when picks are due.

I'll be at Lowe's Motor Speedway this weekend. Unfortunately, it will be the Charlotte Auto Fair rather than a race. I did manage to garner 18 pts from qualifying today.

Looks like Tilly, knights, and I will be getting together tonight to watch Jaws yell "BOOGITY BOOGITY BOOGITY, LET'S GO RACING, BOYS!"

I won't be watching the race and therefore can't provide commentary. The last Leafs game of the season is on tonight and it takes precedence over NASCAR.

WTH am I doing on this thread? Oh, yea, the NASCAR race tonight is being watched in our sunroom .

Getting set for a PW fest at Chez Devildeac.

Tilly and knights on their way over, thunderstorm pending.

Many of us had 13 points or more due to qualifying.

David Ragan, everyone's most popular C lister, has the pole.

Looks like the greatest amount of variation in choices is the A list tonight: JJ, Hamlin, Blech, Edwards, JG, and Harvick are the choices.

Boogety Boogety Boogety!!
LET'S GO RACING BOYS!!

And it's windy out there!

They are flying!!
Roush is running 1,2,3,6 in lap 10. Ragan, Kenseth, Edwards, and Biffle (6th)
JJ is falling back.

Yellow flag: Raines blew up.
Kurt Busch stayed out, most everyone else pitted.

Lots of different pit strategies.
Penske comes out 1,2 (Kurt and Kes each take two tires).
Hamlin moves up a ton.
Starting to get dark in Texas.

Kenseth 3rd, followed by Hamlin, Bowyer.
Green flag on lap 120.

Pearls of wisdom from Darrel Waltrip:
You've got to manage your assets.
Bayne's strategy is not to get into any accidents.
That grill on Kenseth is like a paper magnet.
You've got to be proactive, not reactive.
