A tremendous amount of rain hit the track about 4 PM. Thankfully, the track was dry in time for racing.

Jimmie Johnson is used to winning, but right now he is in tenth, and eleventh…and twelfth. And fourteenth too.

Yeah, they spelled my name wrong on my creds.  They left the last vowel off.  I fixed it with a Sharpie.  My fellow Polish-American, Brad Keselowski, knows that with a Polish last name, folks will misspell it every now and then.

While Brad dominated, his pit crew struggled all night.  Joey Lagano consistently beat him off of pit lane.

In the end, however, nobody was going to deny Keselowski the victory at Kentucky
