All I know and I don't care WHO did what. That was a great battle for the championship. JB in front no it Honaday no it's JB. Best I have seen really don't watch the truck race but it was the best I race I have seen all year. These guys cutting in between trucks going 3 wide to make sure they don't lose a position and so on.

I was on the edge of my seat.

Catching somebody...and passing are 2 different things, yes Speed slowed him up...but still dunno if that was enough.

Taking 4 tires on the last stop...was the bad call, if he took 2 he would have come out..a couple spots behind JB..not 7 spots or whatever it was.  Also that last caution didn't help him as he lost another couple of laps.

and like Thayne said...JB taking 2 and getting thoese 5 points made a difference.

That race was just as much won in the pits as it was on the track.

I only seen the last 50 laps..beacuse I was at work..but thoese last 50 were very dramatic.

I think that race has proven that stock car racing, especially at that level is a TEAM SPORT....bar none...fortunately or unfortuneately, dependin on how u look at it, it came down to the pit crew, crew chief and driver...a real team effort...

cool to think that we saw JB running a super at Delaware back in late Sept.
Really, this division is one of the few Nascar divisions that still holds my attention-the races are the right length to be competitive and interesting. I still have mixed feelings about the cup drivers participating though. Trouble is, with Toyota dominating and other mfrs pulling out, will we want to watch a division dominated by one manufacturer next season?. Inititially the trucks looked like the short box street versions. Harder and harder to find that combination these days. (A neighbour bought a new f-150 and it's possitively huge compared to years ago)
