Looks like not much has changed since last year. Regan started off the year with weekly win. I thought he might be in trouble when Harvick started complaining about engine problems on lap 5, but he held on to get a good finish. Hendrick cars looked like they had the best shot of keeping that foreign manufacturer out of the winner's circle for most of the race. But mechanical failures and bonehead moves took all four of them out of contention. Where did Dodge come from? Nobody was talking about Dodges leading up to the 500, and I guess we all bought in, we didn't have a single Dodge picked in our pool this week.
Kudos to Blond Dog for almost nailing the average race speed. The average speed was 152.672mph, Blond Dog missed it by 0.372. Ryan and Byron were also right there within 0.6mph.
Next race is in California. It's a fast track, and drafting may play a small role with the new cars. Rousch and Hendrick have been successful there, will Toyota be a factor?
California qualifying is about 6:30 Eastern on Friday. So get your picks to be before then.
