Kyle Busch finally swept a weekend, winning in the Craftsman Truck Series, the Nationwide and Sprint Cup series at Bristol, a noteworthy feat to be sure.
Although we did have a few shakeups, there was not a lot of major movement in the standings.
Up front, Captain Schwab fell to third as Rick Racer, our week winner, took the lead and brought Blue 7 with him. Pamela's Pistons and Moneyshot Racing round out our top five.
Following Ricky Racer for the week were BMF Lugnuts, Mama's Boy, Racing Fever and CosmoD. We had the usual start and parkers in the back.
Among those who did make some omves this week were Mama's Boy, Smoke's Fury, CosmoD, and BMLF Lugnuts. Losing the draft were Team Hot Stuff and SPC Racing, who unlike Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon, did not have an adequate back up driver secured as he welcomed a new born into the family.
After a week off, THE BOXES HAVE CHANGED for the next race which will occur on Labor Day weekend as we run the Emory Healthcare 500 Sunday night, with the green flag dropping at @7:46PM at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
This is a great time of year, with football kicking off.
Good Luck to All!

Week 23 Commentary
Another rather boring day at Michigan International Speedway. The big news of the day was Kurt Busch losing an engine, and for those among the Conway Racing League that had selected him, the day ended badly.
Flat Tires Racing won the week, followed by Racing Fever, MoneyShot Racing^, WTC Racing and Blue 7 Racing.
Fitz Racing is on the start and park plan, but Shake & Bake did find some sponsorship and ran well this week. Irish Racing, Batson Roofing Racing, MT Pockets, DFL, Blood or Tears and Budah had engine trouble.
Captain Schwab took the lead from Ricky Racer this week. Pamela's Pistons, Blue 7 and Moneyshot Racing^ are nose to tail with the leaders.
Moving up this week were Mama's Boy, Flat Tires Racing, Glynn^, Runnin on Fumes, Fullers Fast Track and Racing Fever.
Those losing the draft were CosmoD, MT Pockets, Lisa Las Vegas and Smokes Fury.
This is the week we have all been waiting for, the Bristol night race. The IRWIN Tools Night Race is scheduled to go green at 7:43PM. Should be fun!

Week 21 Commentary
It was another strange weekend at Pocono, a place where just about anything can happen. One time, a deer ran across the track and back in the day with Kyle Petty leading in the Mello Yellow Pontiac a spectator eluding his girlfriend ran across the back straightaway.
It has also been a place for horrendous wrecks, and we had another one Sunday. Thank goodness Elliott Sadler survived, thanks in large measure to the HANS device if you ask me. If you check our facebook page, you recall we recently posted comments by Greg Biffle about the dangers at Pocono.
One would think the leader in worldwide sports would have video of it, but no. ESPN better get on the stick or get out of the way and let someone else handle it.
Ricky Racer remains our leader, followed by Captain Schwab, Team Taser, Blue 7 Racing and Pamela's Pistons.
For the week, Pamela's Pistons took the checkers, with WTC Racing, Team Wolf, CosmoD and SPC Racing rounding out the top five.
Shake & Bake, The Blue Deuce, whose day was ruined by Jimmie Johnson, Team Irish, Batson Roofing and Fitz Racing finished in the rear.
SPC, CosmoD, Crank McTanken, Slow Motion Racing, Team Cuda and O Racing all moved up 5 or more spots. Only Tank Racing, Offshore Gamester and The Blue Deuce lost 5 or more.
This week we are up in Watkins Glen for our second and final road course run of the year. The Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips at The Glen cuts them loose at 1:18PM EST on Sunday. The 24 and the 14 own road courses, so we shall see.
We will be having our MID-SEASON PARTY this week at The Wingshack. The green flag on our allotment starts at 1PM, so don't show up at 2:12 and wonder what happened.
Look forward to seeing everyone.
