Looks like I am fucked this week. I usually make my picks on the Wednesday but this week I left them until Thursday and, apparently, am now too late to make them so I am stuck with the same drivers that I had last week.

Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuckity, fuck, fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey... Carl Edwards is just behind Jeff Gordon, who won the pole. That gives you a choice between Edwards and JJ (starting 10th). That's hardly something to complain about.

I did well on the C list, choosing Dinger (starting 3rd) and Menard (5th). Hornish and Speed are starting somewhere around 20th.

As for the B list, the team at RCR isn't starting well.

I've taken a much different viewpoint on speeding lately. What's the rush? Have I gotten old?

Well, this night is going to SUCK for me, as I chose Rocketman.

Right now in lap 88, he is in 43rd position... in other words, dead last, having crashed out early. He's back on the track 59 laps down. KurtBusch had some spin out issue early, and is now a lap down.

Fortunately, I chose JJ over Smoke (who crashed), but JJ ALSO spun out. He fell back to 28th, but is moving back up to 21st. Smoke is ALSO back in the race, in 20th. UGGH!

Blech is racing well up front, but he's having trouble with a sticky throttle. According to the race communications, Blech is PISSED again ("Well, there goes another race"). Joey Frickin Logano is racing well in the top 5.

Menard is racing well, Edwards in 13th, JG in 2nd.

CAUTION Lap 125 of 334
Kasey Kahne and Sam Hornish Jr crash. Hornish is climbing out of his vehicle.

Well, at least Newman will now finish in 42nd, I THINK.

Blech's throttle is okay now, Logano and Hamlin racing well, as is Biffle.

JJ made it past Edwards, and is now 14th or so, even though he also got side swiped coming out of the pits last time (Bowyer & Harvick did it).

JJ takes the lead for the first time tonight, from Jamie Mac. Blech in 3rd.
JG got loose, slowing down, lost power, lost a lap, but was able to stay out and switch batteries.

JG caught speeding.
Dinger in the lead, but needs to pit (and having ALL sorts of issues).
FWIW, JJ Yeley is now driving Kahne's car. KK didn't feel good.

36 laps to go, Blech now takes the lead, with Jamie Mac, JJ, and Hamlin right behind.

FWIW, Edwards is somewhere around 13th or so.

8 laps to go, and Jamie Mac is pulling away. JJ just can't pass Blech for 2nd.

Order of finish:
Jamie Mac, Blech, JJ, Hamlin, Biff, Kenseth, Logano, Harvick, Reutimann, Ragan, Montoya, Edwards, Smith, Martin, Truex.

Jamie Mac sounds like a 5 year old.
Got to admit, he's a nice guy.

I left Speed on the bench in favour of Hornish.
