AND the Panthers actually pulled out a win (only their second of the year!) and my 2 favorite drivers came in 1st and 3rd in the race today. It's been a much better weekend, sports-wise, than most have been lately ... :-)

Saw the closing moments of 'your' game as bonus coverage when ours ended and was pulling like crazy for the Pack!
