Lap 375 — The leader is ... get this ... still Jimmie Johnson. Shocker, huh?

Lap 369 — GREEN FLAG: Jimmie Johnson (who else?), Kevin Harvick, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Matt Kenseth and Clint Bowyer are the leaders when the green comes back out. Johnson’s jump isn’t quite as good this time, but he’s still able to clear for the lead in Turns 1 and 2. Harvick is hot on his bumper.

Lap 365 — Jeff Gordon is pitting under the caution. Ryan Nemwan, Greg Biffle and Mark Martin are also in.

Lap 363 — YELLOW FLAG NO. 7: Jeff Burton’s engine has blown.

Lap 359 — Jimmie Johnson is once again pulling out to a comfortable lead. This time, he’s up 1.3 seconds on Kevin Harvick.

Lap 352 — GREEN FLAG: Jimmie Johnson, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Matt Kenseth, Kevin Harvick and Clint Bowyer are the top five. Johnson is clear at the stripe.Harvick takes second with a run to the outside of Earnhardt.

Lap 350 — Fifty laps to go. Jimmie Johnson says there’s still cleaning to be done between Turns 3 and 4.

Lap 400 — CHECKERED FLAG: Jimmie Johnson rolls to the victory. It’s his seventh at Dover, tying him with Richard Petty and Bobby Allison for most here at Dover. He’s doing his post-race interview in the multi-colored wig. Yow-zeh ...

Lap 396 — Kevin Harvick is close, but not close enough.

Lap 392 — Jimmie Johnson has this one in hand if nothing happens.

Lap 384 — Look at Jimmie Johnson up front, calm, cool and collected.

Lap 380 — Twenty laps to go.

Shoot! Mrs p6 came home...complained because dinner wasn’t started... she’s cooking beef roasts in the pressure cooker so they are done in time...complained about Gordon....made me go to the garage and make sure I was correct about the leak in the brake lines...I was wrong...it’s a rear brake line that runs right by the freaking gas tank...tank is pretty full so it’s going to weigh a ton when I drop it.

Another week of work ahead...sigh.

Took forever to post...jj wins

I heard about Bergren. What was the type of racing he covered first. I thought he came from the sport car circuits?
