Sprint Cup 2010 - Gillette Fusion ProGlide 500 - Pocono
Well last week wasn't that great. We are off to Pocono this weekend for the Cup race. The other two series are at different sites as well. Nationwide at Tennessee and the Trucks at Texas.

Hamlin +550. Thought of taking others but will wait. The top 5 qualifiers win this race at an unbelievable rate.

Martin is due for a win and Pocono is one of his strong tracks. Don't give it to Hamlin just yet.

Yea, Martin has been quiet lately. But it seems like Gibbs racing has won or been close to winning every race though

Thanks guys! I could look it up but I am too lazy to do so.
Yeah, I have a feeling Kyle will be strong Sunday. Of course that feeling has jinxed everyone so far....

I finally went and looked at qualifying results and was a little surprised to see both Jr and Smoke in the top 10. Jr qualifying 3rd was a pleasant surprise.

Pocono tends to seem a boring race, but I do enjoy the drag racing on the long straights. Certainly not going to top IndyCars at Texas last night (one opinion of course), but a race that I will tune into today. Hopefully we see some blown engines that make the race interesting at the end. All chaos tends to make for better veiwership.
I'm pulling for Juan Montoya and think the 2 car will be a factor or should be.

It's getting close to do or die for Juan. He needs to get his act together quickly or he will not be making it to the chase.

adding Montoco +2000. Kyle or Kurt? Kyle or Kurt. Kyle doesn't run very well here. But he is sitting on the pole where a lot of winners at this track start. His practice speeds aren't that great. Kurts hot and runs well here. Top 5 starting spot. Better winning odds. Lookers on Kurt.

Hamlin was awesome today. I loved seeing Sam up front for a couple of laps and seeing him hold his ground. Also way to be Dinger on blocking Kahne. Too bad it had to take out so many though.

I slept through most of the race. Woke up when they started the last green flag pit stops. Little Joey got a little steamed there didn't he?

Joey went after Harvick. Made comments that it wouldn't do any good to talk to him though cause everyone knows his wife is the one who wears the firesiut in that family. He was a very sarcastic young man.
With 2 laps to go, Joey passed Harvick on the top. Didn't have him completely cleared. Harvick stayed straight and didn't move down any. They both went for a patch of the track and Harvick clipped Joey's left quarter panel and he spun which brought out the caution right before Denny would take the white flag.

Ah yes, I seen that wreck and was pissed because Hamlin was about to grab the white flag. Figured it would fuk me in the end, and Kyle would get the win. I didn't see Joey go off though. Good to see him stand up for himself, instead of being passive.

but Harvick didn't do anything wrong in this case. From one angle it does look like harvick moved up but from a different one you can clearly see he held his line. I don't want Joey to act like a punk brat like Kyle. I don't like kyle.

Yeah you can definitely tell that Kahne has moved on from RPM.
