Auto Club 400

Tony Stewart wins the Auto Club 400 at Fontana Speedway today, lets just get that out of the way and congratulations to him and his team. Tony usually struggles at the start of the season and as the weather gets warmer he warms up to, but this year he is getting started early. Remember it came down to wins last year to break the tie between Tony and Carl so wins are important. In the past you could be consistent and win the Championship but with the adjustments NASCAR made to the points, you have to win races. Even with two wins early in the year Tony is still fourth in the points and Biffle is in first. Dale had another good finish with a third today and he is now third in the points I know it's early but it is still nice to see him where he is at. The luckiest person on the planet has to be Jimmy Johnson, just as smoke started to pour out the back of his car, the rain came. The rain brought out the red flag and eventually the end of the race,letting him finish tenth instead of several laps down. I hate to see a short race so I was disappointed that is the way this one ended but what racing we did see was good. Short race, a short post..lol...but it does give me a chance to say, they say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree but, Kyle Petty is one of the biggest idiots on TV, he is nothing like his Daddy. He can't drive,he likes to rub people the wrong way and there is no way he would be any place other than a cotton mill if it weren't for Richard.That doesn't have anything to do with today's race, but I feel better now that I have said it, he drives me crazy and not like the Beetles did young girls in the sixties.I'm looking forward to Martinsville next week where it will not be wide open five wide racing, we will be back to a little rubbing. You all have a great week and thanks for checking out what I though of today's race.
