Lap 365 of 500
Truex, Hamlin, Blech, Biff, Edwards, Harvick
Surprised that Kes made it back on the track so early.
Kenseth is down 13 laps in 26th. Smoke is down 24 laps in 28th. Expect another caution involving these two.
BY THE WAY... Jeff Burton is back in the race.
JJ needs another caution, and does not have enough fuel to make it. He is under orders to save fuel.
AND Hornish is now in 34th!!! SURPRISE!!!

86 laps to go CAUTION: Mears: Left rear went down, meaning he rubs the wall.
Danica gets the Lucky Dog.
Harvick, Blech, Hamlin, Truex come in.
Before the caution, Hamlin took the lead when Patrick blocked Truex.
Don't look now, but EDWARDS now has the lead.

82 laps to go restart
Edwards says he needs fuel... JJ too.
Edwards, Vickers, Ambrose, JJ, Logano, Hamlin, JG
Only Hamlin has enough fuel for sure.
76 laps to go CAUTION: DEBRIS from Regan Smith, when Biff taps him.
Mears gets the Lucky Dog.
No one in the top 14 go to the pits. This may mean that JJ has enough fuel.

68 laps to go: Caution: Patricks spins and crashes after Smith tags her left rear tire/panel.
People are going to stay out of the pits. Patrick waves her finger at Smith as he passes by. Reminds me of Dikembe Mutumbu.

48 laps to go Vickers takes the lead, then makes a fantastic save as Edwards tags him. Vickers falls to 5th.
Edwards has the lead.
38 laps to go: Hamlin tries it, edwards tags Hamlin, Hamlin holds onto lead. JJ in 3rd.

Knaus thinks JJ has enough fuel.

Congrats to Miles, who won this week (dude had Hamlin and Ambrose).
I believe I still held second, ahead of Ymo. As stated before, colchar, Tilly, and I had the exact same picks.

Atlanta is next!

We had an awesome night that night! We hosted our Fantasy Football Draft Party at my house, and then the after party turned into a race party. It was one of those win-win nights! WOO HOO.

Not only have I chosen poorly for the past *(#*@% weeks, I was too late to pick new drivers this week so have to live with my idiots from last week! YIKES! I didn't plan on this "fun" being so frustrating! Have even been known to swear at the TV during a race!

My picks have been suspect for quite some time now...

Boogity boogity boogity!! They're racing in Atlanta!

Fantasy league-wise, colchar and I have almost exactly the same picks again. Our B and C drivers are the same. On the A list, we both could have chosen JJ, but we both chose our other driver instead. So, colchar has Gordon, and I have Edwards. Meanwhile, lawgrad wound up choosing our B&C drivers, but went with JJ.

Great minds think alike.

Lap 15... JG takes the lead from Smoke, who took the lead from Biff. And Blech is coming on strong.

Lap 40: CAUTION Almirola spewing/smoking oil

Lap 173 Green Flag Pitting
Harvick has led the last 25 laps or so. Blech had a hrrible restart off the last yellow, and backed up tremendously, forcing JG to back up as well, but JG is getting back into it in 10th. Biffle having a slower night, maybe in 16th.
