That first crash hurt here too..

I am amazed I pulled a 4 7 9 43 and could have had a Vickers who finished 11th if I hadn’t gone Sam ,, dang.

Oh well

Next week, Vegas,, no way I can pick last spot 3 weeks in a row, right? ;-)

Is it just me, or does Jeff Gordon’s hat have the biggest bill in history? I just saw a post-race interview with him, and it looks like he has the goofiest looking hat ever.
