Labonte wins in last lap pass
Bobby Labonte pulled off a final lap pass on Tony Stewart to win the Busch race at 'Dega. Labonte had been pushing Stewart for the final two laps after the red flag and in the final moments of the race, decided to make the move and go for the win, beating Stewart by less than a car length. It was nice to see Labonte win again and maybe he can carry some momentum into tomorrow's race and have a good finish.
Labonte's win and Stewart's second place finish gave Kevin Harvick Racing a one-two finish.
In a surprise move, NASCAR actually told Montoya to calm it down with the bumping and gave him a warning.
And for all those Stewart haters out there, you know the ones that were saying all his comments were just him being a sore loser, what did you think of Kyle Busch's comments? I didn't hear any other driver make any snide comments against anyone else, just Busch about Stewart.

What do you expect from Baby Busch? He drives like a maniac and when he gets bumped and spins he can't handle it and decides to slam Tony. Maybe Busch will think twice about making a move like that next time, what am I saying, Busch never learns.
I agree Kathy, it was great to see Bobby Labonte in Victory Lane and its cool for Kevin Harvick Racing to get the 1-2 finish.

He called Stewart the best driver in NASCAR which was simultaneously a shot at Stewart and his stablemates Gordon and Johnson.
As an HMS fan I try to like Busch but he makes it really hard. He's an immensely talented driver but he's also an incredible immature petulant brat.
Thing is, on the replay it did look like Stewart caused the wreck and yet after Kyle's comments I have no sympathy for him. It was just a racing deal.
