Week 22 Commentary

It was another wild road course race from up at Watkins Glen for the Finger Lakes 355 with Marcose Ambrose getting the hard fought win. Ambrose is stout on the road courses to be sure.

Budah won the CNL Checkers, with Glynn, Cane Racing, Cosmo D and Chief Racing rounding out the top five. Big gainers included Cane Racing, The Chief, No Ones Beatch and CosmoD. In the garage area were WTF Racing and Blue 7 Racing.

The Big Lebowski continues to to show the way, and it is time those in contention to step it up. Team Taser, Cane Racing and Big and Lil Boy round out the top five. There is a wide spread consensus of the talent level of Danica Patrick, and while I don't think she is the next coming of Jimmie Johnson, I think she is pretty good. Never have I seen someone as snake bit. She has wrecked a time or two on her own, been wrecked for no reason a handful of times and wrecked out of the lead once or twice.

Then, there was yesterdays Nationwide race in Montreal.



We are at Michigan International Speedway this weekend for the Pure Michigan 400 at Brooklyn, Michigan. Usually, although the speeds are very fast, the racing is boring and it comes down to gas mileage. Dale Earnhardt, Jr will try to become the first driver to repeat at Michigan since Bobby Labonte in 1995.

Dale Jr and Jimmie Johnson will have to go the back of the field for the start.  Kid Rock will give the command!  Stand on it!
