Time for Jeff Gordon to pick up a million bucks for his daughters trust fund. He's my pick.
Bring out T-Rex.

Tony Stewarts my favorite driver, and he has been playing mr. conservative the whole season, and that's been working out for him, but this is the all-star race, and in this race, "If you're not first, you're last". So Tony's gonna step-up, and take the win.

But too bad I won't get to see his first win as a driver/owner, because im going to the Ridgecrest 200. but i might have my satellite TV hooked up. (hopefully)

Mark Martin for the win.......RG will suck as usual in the showdown.

Robby needs a massive pile up at the start. Hopefully Juan or Logano cause it.

I really think Tony's due and I would like to see him get the win. It's most likely going to be a Hendrick car that takes it. If not,the only other person who has a chance is going to be KB.

RG getting some pub on Speed. JH wants to know "why nascar?". Kind of a predictable answer.

9th among a bunch of also rans and seldom rans.......Put into perspective, a very mediocre performance. Sam Hornish is on fire......You know RG needs to take a long hard look in the mirror and rethink things when Sam Fricken Hornish is out driving you in stock cars.

Jeff Gordon needs to figure out where the hell he is from.........He can not be from both NorCal and Indiana, depending on what suits him. One or the other rainbow warrior, one or the other

Yea, my prediction was 34th ahead of POS who DNFed, So I got exited!!!
I missed how he gained so much at the start.

Weird! The 48 check out. Didn't see that coming. Did anyone see the hit Mike Skinner took in the truck race? I don't know how he didn't get a back board ride out of that place!

I was watching the race and have seen the crash several times. The initial hit, headon into the wall, looked bad.

We can rightfully dog Nascrap for alot of things, but they deserve kudos when it comes to safety, especially over the past 8-9 years.

Wow. I'll have to watch it a few times but I think I just saw some good racing and it was Nascar. :D

Atleast it wasn't 24 or 48..... Good to see a car owner/driver succeed. WTF RG take some lessons from SMOKE!!

Tony doesn't own his car, Haas does. It's a lot easier to win when you have Hendrick equipment, ex-Hendrick engineers, and Gene Haas who has more money than half the NASCAR team owners.

Let me start by saying that I thought that TS was nuts for leaving Gibbs and did not think he would be competetive if ever for years. I was wrong. To imply that Tony does not own that team and is some how less of an owner then RG is quite frankly is comical with all do respect. Tony owns half of that team, it is not like he is just the driver. Tony Stewart is who brought some very big names over to that team, not Gene Haas.....That team had two also rans who had a very hard time just staying in the top 35 for years before Tony Stewart came on board. It was Tony Stewart who almost individually brought on huge sponsorship and staff to that team. Give the guy credit, not only did he know what he could do, he also knew what he could not do and knew he would need more help from Hendrick if he was to have any success. To go it alone and try to do everything on his own, he would be in the same boat as RG is, strugling to stay inside the top 35, no wins and virtually no competetive runs to name. Kudos to Tony for knowing what it takes to win. I wish RG would take some notes for the cup side of things.

How do you really feel? Just kidding. Your facts prove your interest in the sport.

Great call!!

thanks. I was kinda worried, because they said the award ceremony was at 7:00PM, which was right near the end of the NASCAR race, and we won, but thank god MDR didn't get the time right and the awards were at 5:30.

So we were watching the race, and my dad and I were cheering at the TV, and he won. Awesome race, very exciting. so we won 1600 class that day, and Tony won, and I picked the winner. very perfect day, Saturday.
