Toyota got their first win. Not Cup but still. Glad to see or not?

I'm glad for Jason Leffler who ended his 83 race losing streak. That was pretty cool. I'm not so sure about the Toyota winning thing though... I knew it was going to happen at one point or another, but didn't really want it to happen in its first year. I'm a Chevy fan 100% and was actually pulling for Greg Biffle which felt pretty immoral to cheer for Ford... Anyways, glad it was only in the Busch series, Toyota is about 3 years off from winning in the Nextel Cup with their existing teams. If Joe Gibbs converts though, guarantee Toyota will be on the fast track. They will win the Nextel Cup within 2 years if JGR converts. Hopes this answers your question...

Very happy for the Toyota guys! Well done indeed!
As the the Cup side developing just the COT will help them tremendously! Vickers seems to be the most likely canidate to win in the Cup series, this year anyways!
Gibbs to Toyota would be very interesting! Stewart wouldn't be happy but not sure he would have a legal leg to stand on! As for the "old Fashioned guy" are you aware that the Camry is the only Cup car actually made in the United States? All others are Canada or Mexico?! Plus Toyota actually makes money and isn't going to crap out on their pension plans (which you and I as Tax payers are going to end up paying! Thanks for nothing GM and FORD!)

Surprised it took that long. The Busch Toyotas currently use the same engines as their Trucks (which got Toyota a championship last year). Next year they'll have to use the less torquey Cup-style engines.
I didn't like the way Leffler bulled his way past Reutimann. To me a real winner is the guy who can win clean, not the one who leaves a trail of wrecked cars and riled tempers behind him.

toyota may have had the fast car but Leffler diss'in Biffle was a huge loser move. Lets all lay down and let guys like this drive all over the track. Go Biff

It wasn't even a real Busch race, half the field weren't Cup regulars.
