Man, I wondered what happened to him. He was doing so good the last of the race there. The car seemed to be coming back to him. I looked up at the race board to see if Jeff Gordon got 3rd or 4th, and saw Jr. had gotten 23rd!! I was thinking, what the heck happened. I didn't think he got in that last wreck. I should have guessed right away it was another motor......It takes a real race driver to come back week after week with the crap he gets to drive. I seriously would want to park my race cars the rest of this season. He has a lot of integrity.

He recovered and did pretty good for a while (4th), but toward the end, he faded again. Did you hear his frustration on the radio when he asked if they couldn't just find an old engine somewhere and put it in and run it so it would last? I really feel sorry for the guy. He's driving his guts out with cars that won't give him anything.
Go Jr.>>>>

when the 01s engine blew, I literaly said " i wonder if jrs freaking out driving by the 01" and turns out jr blows his engine. hes had 7 dnfs this year more then the last 2years combined. (5) and 6 of his 7 are from engine related issues.
That has to say something. thank god hes going to a team that literaly NEVER has engine problems.

I was just wonderin the same thing myself!! If u had track pass on it was pretty sweet. junior was let's say, unhappy. I can't help but think that somethin is amiss here!! Things that u go Hmmmmm!!! If you think about it, it's always towards the end of the race when the engine pucks & Junior either gets a DNF or way back in the pack.

I had him on track pass, if the race would have been 400 miles be would have finished in the top5, the motor went in and out all day, he had his spotter TJ tell all the other spotters that he'd be going low as the motor was going at 7 laps to go that the motor was going....Yep....these DEI motors suck,suck suck suck suck .. I'm surprised it did not go sooner.. Oh well he won't be having these problems next yr.. Congrats to Jimmie...
