I wonder what the rev limiter is set at on these things after that last little Harvick/Gordon discussion.

We have already seen Harvick turning 9800... 10k I wonder?!

I bet he pulls that chip on the last lap.

They drove through a puddle on the way in and killed the Opti. It is on the side of the road a couple of miles from the gate.

With a Hamlin DQ... Kurt Busch FTW!

On second look, did Kurt actually beet Hamlin to the line regardless of a DQ?
