Harvick wins.
Then it's Hamlin, Edwards, Biff, Kenseth,

And I believe colchar has won again, but mph may have pulled out the win.

I believe I still maintain my lead in the race for second place.

The points aren't posted yet so we can't see who won.

I left Harvick on the bench and my A-list bench driver was Edwards who came in one spot ahead of Biffle.

My drivers finished 4th, 5th, 14th, and 32nd today.


ETA: if you look at the weekly results the winner is posted in green despite them not having all the points up yet. By the looks of it someone unleashed some demolition on the rest of us this week! Congrats. Or maybe they just have the early leader (qualifying, etc.) in green which would mean that I have no idea yet who the hell won!

Biffle, however, scores more points than Edwards, as Biffle led the most laps.

Logano got loose while racing a turn with Rocketman, bumping Rocketman, who then brought out a caution as he slid down the track.

In other gossip news, Jeff Burton was on the radio really chewing out his own crew.

Dale Jr had a few expletive deleteds when interviewed after the race. :swear:

I've almost matched my point total for the spring session in one fewer race.

I am currently leading the summer session by only 151 points which can clip away very easily. My overall season lead is a little safer right now as I lead by 327 points (I remain in the 98th percentile) but even that lead can disappear with a couple of bad races.

NYT Sunday Magazine just did a long thing on Dale Jr.

He had a lot of problems while working with this one crew chief, Eury the last couple years. I note that this crew chief is now running Danica's ride for Nationwide. Maybe this is why she has had such a tough time in the stock cars, in addition to the transition, obviously.

Bristol news: JJ earns the pole, followed by Carl Edwards, Joey Logano, Smoke, and Reutimann.

Edwards might win, as Keselowski didn't qualify! ;)

Well, yahoo sports had Kes not in the race. 15th makes a little more sense. Thanks for the correction.

The other confusion is Reutimann. He qualified 5th, but may not race because of food poisoning? I've seen one report saying he won't race; I've seen another that says he will race. :-\ :-\

My picks this week would appear to suck, but then you don't really know that until after the race.
