A short track somewhere
Race: 8

Finish: 1 (Bowyer screwed Harvick, the end was the worst part of the race)

Winner: 3 (would've rather seen KH or JPM snap a winless streak)

ESPN: 8 (Finally, good coverage)
 
9- Best race of the year! My guy won, JPM moved up in the chase, and NO RAIN! :beerbang::D
 
First full race I've seen in quite a while and I'll give it a solid 9. Good for Kasey to get the win.
 
I thought it was pretty good. It would of been better had Sam Hornish Jr. not spun off track twice.:(
 
I have to give it a 9. It was one of the most interesting races I have seen in some time. The way a driver can start out on fire and then go a lap down 30 laps later or see a guy running 25th and leading 30 laps later was something else. And it happened all night.
 
I only saw the last 25 laps or so, but that is more than I've seen the whole season so far. But, what I saw was pretty good. The ending could have been a little more interesting, but Kahne was just so dominant on the short runs that there was no one going to catch him after he got a second or so out in front.

Atlanta has always been one of my favorite tracks to watch. I'm not sure why so many people dislike the place, but the racing there has always been pretty good in my opinion. I like a track where different cars can run different lines, cars can pass, and set-ups need updated all the time. If your guy is simply average, or even bad early on he can still get it right in time to finish really well. It can be frustrating if your driver is doing well early on, because you know that can change, though.

So-so race. Mutliple cars fighting a loose condition made for lots of one car spins. Glad to see KK get another win, but wanted to see JPM or KH get the win more.

Nice to see Dale with a top-5 car, but WTF happened at the end?
