I like Kyle Busch for this race. Kyle Larson and Denny Hamlin also should contend. Wait... thats the top three in quals!

[dara]

Congrats to Kyle Busch, followed by Kyle Larson, and Matt Kenseth. Martin Truex, Jr wins the first stage, and Kyle Busch gets the second after a crash by Harvick and Kurt Busch which delayed Truex..



Harvick and Kurt B will be hurt by this in the playoffs... but will post later.

[crazed 9.6]

you had some good pics there dara

except Hamlin who had some kinda suspension problems.
When I saw Kyle B come thru that smoke unscathed, I think I knew then that this was his race
