Thats the only reason i noticed the tiny icon. I was so accustomed to ignoring him jump up out of the hole the tiny icon off to the side got my attention. maybe fox got tired of the complaints.

Good job my Jimmie Johnson. He was the class of the field. Maybe Kyle Busch can do the same next week...:)

Tony fell one position short of where I had him. Better luck next time, Smoke...;)

Wonder if anyone will say this was a boring race...and that leaders can't be passed.:clueless: GREAT race and hats off to 48 team and to the 14 team...GREAT show guys.

Customer wanted to unload this afternoon instead of in the morning so I missed all but the last 100...I heard how Gordon went the first lap down; caught in the pits on a caution...how'd he go a 2d lap down? He had a great car at the end running with leaders...oh well there's next week.

Congrats to Tony...New Point leader. Jr didn't do too bad and Joey L's coming a long quite well.:cool:

Gonna miss the Prelude this year:mad:;)

He just had a crap car at the time and they had to work to get it back.. I had is in car scanner going and he hated everything about his car pretty much til they got it going in the right direction after he went 2 laps down... Jimmie tried so hard to keep him on the that lap but then just couldn't wait any longer and had to go.

Congrats to the 48 team. From the little I managed to hear on Sirius of the race those guys dominated.
Now, if I could just do a better job in my fantasy games. I near the bottom in all three that I'm in :(

Well I taped the race and watched a little bit on and off during the race and boy I saw a LOT of empty seats. I normally LOVE Dover but it didn't really catch my interest this time.

I went to Dover in 96, we were crammed into the seats like sardines. The place was completely packed, and it was a boring race. The traffic leaving was horrible, I might be tempted to go back with so few people in the seats.

It was a race with the first 30 laps were awesome, and the last 30 laps were awesome. And watching Mark come from 35th to 3rd in a green flag run was awesome too.

I was at the race and there were a TON of empty seats. I've never been to a race where there has been so many empty seats.

I missed the first 1/3rd of the race. The last 20 laps? Eh....I knew Pit-Stop Biffle wouldn't hang on but I would have liked to have seen Tony hold off Mr. Beard. When it became clear that JJ was going to get it I was gone. I'm glad I didn't watch the whole race.

I do like Dover but I wouldn't mind seeing that race lose about 100 laps.

It will be interesting to see how the attendance is at the upcoming races. Summers here and that means the usual fleecing by the Oil Overlords.
