[muggle not]

Where is everyone. Probabl;y one of the best races of the year and no comments. Darlington takes a patient driver. mark was patient the whole race, as well was jeff Gordon. Kudos to Martin.

No comments because I missed watching it. :-(

[Mark in Oshawa]

Gotta love the old man winning another race.....

For me it was somewhat a disappointing race ...
cool to see the "old man" win another race ...
yet some of the likely suspects were missing from the equation ...
it would have been more interesting to watch if Kyle Busch had been on his game ...
the same is true for Carl Ewards & Clint Bowyer ... :s

Just got round to watching this and I agree except I can't even remember the last time I saw a real awesome race at Darlington

LOL, Kyle was on his game. Throw out Richmond and look at Kyle's last 5 races:

Darlington - 34th
Talladega - 25th
Phoenix - 17th
Texas - 18th
Martinsville - 24th

Maybe he should swap CC with Jr. :D
