Do the Nextel phones have driver audio. I thought I heard them advertise that.

Smoke screwed up as well.. I agree with announcers smoke could have let Jeff have a little room,

And Rocket collects 5 bonus points based on pit selection.

REAL slow stop for McMary. Rocket, Robot, Rubberhead, JJ, Shrub lead them off pit road.

Truex collects the pardon, puts 42 cars back on the lead lap provided Smoke and Flash beat the pace car back out.

One reason I didn't take Smoke today is he gets a little wild with adrenaline at times.

Yup, the good thing is it happened fairly early on, so both should be OK.

NBC seemed to suggest about 50% Smoke, 30% wind, 20% Flash. Seemed to me that smoke was letting him go by... but then got back in the throttle too early - or at least sooner than Jeff guessed.

That wind coming out of 2 is VERY tricky today. That better be the last time somebody tries 3-wide there.

McMary coming back down again, TrackPass has this for the top 10 - 12 17 2 32 48 5 38 6 8 29

I guess no penalty for aggressive driving yet.
