Tony Stewart's Win at Pocono

I completely forgot to blog about Tony's win! He won the Pocono 500 last Sunday. It was a VERY boring race until about the last 30 laps; then it was a question of, "who will run out of fuel and who will make it to the end?" Tony was amazing. He saved enough fuel to make it to the end, AND he did a burnout. ;) Tony ended up racing in a backup car; he had wrecked the original in practice Saturday and had to start at the back (43rd), but he had originally been the pole sitter (sitting in 1st place because qualifying was rained out).

However, I don't think tony would have won had he started the race in first. Dont' get me wrong; Tony can win when he wants to and when luck doesn't turn against him. But, he does better in traffic. He does better when he has to work to get up front to win.

All I can say is, the man rocks. He hasn't won all those races for nothing.
