Road Course Race Tops

Road Course Race One of the Best

Road courses aren’t exactly my favorite style of racing. I would usually tell you to get rid of the 2 road courses, along with Pocono and some of the cookie cutter mile and a half tracks and add a few more races at bull rings like Bristol and Martinsville, or another race at Talladega – but the race at Infineon was one of the best races of the year.

The Shootout Style double file restarts really kept everything interesting in the final laps.

I couldn’t believe Kasey Kahne could hold off a skilled road racer like Tony Stewart for that many restarts. It looked like Kahne had his car dialed in – and some serious horsepower under the hood.

It was good to see Richard Petty back in Victory Lane for the first time in a long time, too.

So what did you think about road course racing, Kahne’s and Petty’s win and everything else going on in the race?
