Got to watch the entire race yesterday, and oh what one hell of a nice surprise that was at the end...

This might be the year finally... he has a real chance to be one of the final 4 in that last race.

The race was good. The 24 is having a great year.

Looks like Kyle (Busch) is gonna need a win to make the next round. Bubba is in better position. I really thought he may win yesterday.

Kyle Busch is like Tom Brady....I never count him out, even when things are going south

He was hot earlier in the year, but for some reason that team has had a rough go.

I thought "just maybe" that going into that next to last restart that he might have a chance to steal one, but after he smoked his tires at the Green, I figured that was it. Now after having watched him completely run away from everybody in just 6 laps, I think he would have run Bubba and the others down anyway (there were somewhere north of 10 laps left still at that point). He was by far the strongest car at the end.

I even let out a little celebration whoop up in the office at the finish, which had the wife calling upstairs to see what was going on.
