Front row = Almirola and Ambrose
"She" has a good starting spot..... Will be on the road with PRN. Seems that I never actually get to "see" this one. |

3rd race in 12 this year that Ambrose has been robbed of a top 10/points haul due to mechanical issues - better win Sears Point & Watkins Glen!

Racing Reference is a handy source of info. Found out that Janet Guthrie had a much more successful 600 debut:
1976 Charlotte World 600: Start: 27, Finish: 15, #68 NAPA / Regal Ride Shocks Chevrolet |

I'm glad you posted that. I wasn't sure which way the track went until I saw the map.
(Disclaimer: That's just intended as a joke, and not as "flaming NASCAR" or whatever bullcrap.) Danica ran pretty much where I expected to find her. I think there were only three cars running behind her, two of which were only behind her because of mechanical issues. I suppose she can ignore the how and why and pat herself on the back for finishing ahead of Ambrose and Allmendinger. |

blame Greg Murphy. What comes arround goes arround. He's punted plenty of guys off the track, so this is sweet revenge. |
