NASCAR - Texas

NASCAR - Texas - Race 8 - Johnson dominated race. Kenseth stayed close, but for the mistake on pit, but just couldn't stay close enough to hold the points lead. Even with a 4th place finish he still lost the lead by 7 points. Kyle Busch hit the wall early, but fought back for a 13th place finish. Carl Edwards, Kurt Busch and Jeff Gordon all had big problems, rendering them 37th and 38th place finishes. Not an exciting race by any means. 

Congratulations Jimmie Johnson!!!
