Now with the car of tomorrow,which is a much closer animal than the old car, they are that much closer to getting it right. The power band in their engines was the main problem in the begining of the season. I knew that when they got that figured out, they would start to show some real progress.

It's starting to look like JGR might have made a good move after all. You’re right - he did pretty well. It’s starting to look like JGR might have made a good move after all.

Not too bad of a showing for the Toyota's. Look for my recap in the next hour or so. Well, Michael didn’t fade too bad. looks like he ran with the big dogs until he got wrecked.

They were all running qualifying setups and this is an impound race. At least they are in. I’m expecting the Toyotas to fade almost immediately, until they have time to adjust the cars.
