Martin should take Gustafson out back and beat him with a baseball bat.

Never thought I'd get a chance to say this this year but what a driver for Dale Jr!! Hopefully that team can carry the momentum and maybe get a win before the year is out. :D

Oh and a great win for Vickers too.

I think it was a great race! Was cheering for Jeff Gordon, for several moments I thought he really could get Vickers and Johnson, but in the last 20 laps I realised he couldnt, he was trying desparate to save fuel and his greatest worry should be Dale Earnhardt Jr who surprised so much, good strategy and that outside line had really done the different in these last laps. The only driver turning more than 170 miles.

Good weekend for Vickers. Curious that Toyota won a race whose greatest characteristic was the fuel saving, exactly the characteristic that make people choose Toyota instead of Ford, Chevy or Dogde.

Well done, Vickers!

This makes it his first non-controversial Cup win.

Glad JJ didn't win. After six pole this year, Vickers deserved that win :thumbsup:
Happy for Gordon 2nd, and thrilled by Junior. Hope he drives that way every weeks...

50% success rate!

And this adds another car back in to the All-Star race next year. :thumbsup:

Well, if you include the Winston Open a few years back when he dumped Mike Bliss at the end, it'd be 33%... but still, the point remains.

Great finishes for Sam Hornish and Casey Mears too.

Was a pretty good one.. was glad to see Vickers get a win without drama, like mentioned. I'm still questioning Kenseth's strategy to not top off and/or get tires like Jr and co on that last restart.. they notoriously get crappy fuel mileage.. oh well, at least he didn't run out until the very end.. but lost a ton of points to Vickers.
