NASCAR - Pocono

NASCAR - Pocono - GoBowling400.com - Typical Pocono racing - boring - like a road race with no right turns (as i always say and always will) Jimmie Johnson lead 43 laps at the beginning race, until he had a blown tire that took him out of contention... Kasey Kahne took over with the next fastest car a debris caution took away his 6.7 second lead. Jeff Gordon out raced Kasey on the restart and it looked like he just might get a win, but alas another caution set another restart and Kasey wasn't letting this one get away. Kurt Busch and his team are trying to sneak into the Chase, Running well about every week, his 3rd place finish put him in 13th just 11 points out of the top ten.
Congratulations Kasey Kahne!!! Good racing!!! The last 8 laps were the most exciting!!!
