Good finish to a so-so race
The race was fairly ho-hum for the most part until the end. I didn't think Edwards had enough, but somehow he charged up on Johnson and passed him. Unfortunately bouncing off the wall slowed his progress and Johnson got the win. While I'm not a fan of either of them, I was hoping that Edwards would have pulled it off.
Kyle Busch had troubles again, they thought it was the engine again, but he was able to finish the race. Bowyer had some bad luck also, but only lost one spot in the standings. His first trouble was on the start when he passed before the start/finish line, later in the race he was caught speeding going in and out of pits. Luckily for him, neither one of the penalties really hurt him.
Good finishes again for Harvick and Burton, who both started in the back of the pack and had a 6th and 7th place finish.
Johnson and Edwards swapped the points lead with Johnson's win, Johnson is 10 points ahead of Edwards with Biffle 30 points behind Johnson, everyone else is over 100 points behind.
Next week shall be interesting at Dega to see how much of a shakeup it'll provide for the points.
Your thoughts?

k2 we are going to have to add a few DONE guys to our list and you might as well order and close the lid on the JGR coffin's

So-so race is correct.
I predicted JUNIOR in top 12 on last blog,he made 13th..JUNIOR needs a top 3 next week or he's out of the running completely...WALTRIP racing with another driver in top 20...that's 5 weeks in a row I believe...solid news for a struggling organization..
KYLE BUSCH continues to show that he's not the "next coming of EARNHARDT"...LOL...AS IF.
I'M certainly not a fan,but you gotta give it to JOHNSON,he really knows how to piss ya off just when you think he don't know how to win.....congrats prettyboy.
