Jimme and carl can't get away from eachother!

Maybe tomorrow will be like the truck race? Go to homestead with a 1 digit point lead

 

[kelloggs5TLfan]

Wonder how long both Jimmie and Carl will sandbag?

Wonder how long both Jimmie and Carl will sandbag?

They won't. However, i'll bet $100 that ESPN will have the camera stuck on those 2 cars the length of the race,a dn they'll be running in the top 5 all night..maybe trading the lead.

Assuming Chad doesnt get his head stuck up hi....nevermind. Hopefully texas was a fluke deal.

I'd love nothing better than to see tighten up so it's not decided until next week. I'd love to see Carl catch up.

That being said, I don't want Carl to catch Clint in Nationwide. It's Clint's turn!

That truck race was something else! The Nationwide was pretty eventful. So if the Cup race is a major bore... hmmm... I wonder what might cause that? Could it be the COT?!!!!!!!!!!! Oh no... Brian France and the media are telling us it's just great. Yeah sure!
