Stewart Stuns At Monster Mile

Tony Stewart came out of nowhere to win the Autism Speaks 400 at Dover on Sunday. Once again, Kyle Busch dominated the race early only to fail to win it at the end. That seems to be a reoccuring theme for the 18. It goes to prove the old adage that it doesn't really matter how many laps you lead as long as you lead on the last lap. Tony Stewart only led three laps but he led the most important lap. It seems to me that the 18 team has a hard time keeping up with the changes in the track.

The Fords seemed to struggle again but Keselowski did manage a 5th place finish. Rousch Racing still hasn't got the Gen 6 car quite figured out yet. They really need to get it together before it's too late.

I can't believe I am going to say this but it woulden't have bothered me if Montoya would have won the race. I am not a fan but I do like to see an underdog win every now and again. The 42 has been coming on strong as of late. Montoya must be off the Colombian coffee and the Colombian coke. Hell he hasn't even blown up a jet dryer yet this year.

This Sunday's race is in Pocono on Sunday at 12:30 P.M. Pocono is a 2.5 mile triangle track and is known for long and boring green flag runs. Qualifying is tomorrow, Friday, June 7th at 2:10 P.M. I will need your picks by 2 P.M. tomorrow. I will be recording the race on Sunday so don't ruin it for me. This will be the 5th out of 9 races for Segment 2.

Last week's song was about Tony Stewart and, lo and behold, he won the race. This week's song is about Clint Bowyer. So he should be a good pick to win this weekend.
