Still in front of the 24, must have not hurt too bad. They'll fix it on the next stop. The back of the 24 too.:)

I sure like Jr, but I'm sure glad he ain't one of my picks.

Why didn't I take Happy OR Rusty instead of Rudd?

What's happening with Biffle? Is he still on the lead lap?

I'm listening to the radio as I'm Fox-deprived.

Rubberhead now lapped. Next up likely Hamilton (even though Biffle is behind him right now).

20 rounds out the top 20...Lap 140 of 250

Rubber tire debris all over the windshields, allowing an extra man over the wall now to clean windshield tearoffs easier...Martin complaining about tire debris all over the place...

Hey, I got the top 3 drivers right now, but where, oh where, is Greg Biffle?

Biffle's the last one on the lead lap. He had pitted just before the last caution (along with Kurt Busch), and they restarted in front of the leader at the tail end of the lead lap. Busch has since been lapped, but Biffle is hanging in there about 40 seconds back (and roughly 2-3 seconds ahead of Nemechek).

And it's Jr's fault (indirectly) that Newman got caught a lap down to begin with.. (well, his car's fault... debris from Jr's umpteeth left front tire tire brought out the caution)

I'm glad he's 9 laps down in 39th place.

Even then, he is screwing up the program for me...I just can't escape the guy..

The Jack is broke again. Caution (Biffle catches a break so he stays on the lead lap, Rubberhead gets the pardon).
