The race for the Fantasy League lead is still close, but I am still slightly ahead of Marvin.

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.

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.

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.

Correction: due to some late changes, the list of A choices is: JJ, Blech, Edwards, JG, and Harvick.

Lap 20: Green flag racing again:

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.
