Samsung 500

Here's a snippet from my Race Recap blog for the last 20 laps:
20 to go: 24, 17, 16, 31 & 01. Kenseth is looking to pass Gordon.
17 to go: Kenseth goes on the outside and passes Gordon for the lead. Montoya is passing Stremme, Mark Martin has passed biffle for 4th.
13 to go - Burton takes 2nd from Gordon and looks to be closing on Kenseth. 17, 31, 24, 01 & 16.Burton gets inside of Kenseth, but cannot take the position. HERE's a whacky NOTE: The 5 car is back on the track - but JR is driving it according to the Fox announcers.
7 to go: Burton keeps bobbling and loses some ground. Kenseth goes up the hill, Burton catches back up. We're watching Truex trying to take 7th but Montoya fights back. (Look out Martin!!)
3 to go: Burton keeps getting inside of Kenseth,but he can't pull away.
2 to go: They are side by side. (31 and 17 that is)
LAST LAP: Finally, Burton gets out in front of Kenseth coming out of 2 and goes on to win the race!!!
The clean racer WINS, and Jeff Burton is the first driver to win multiple times at Texas!!31, 17, 01, 24, 26, 16, 1, 42, 11 & 40 ar the top 10.What a great last 20 laps!! Gotta love the classic car of yesterday!!

Jeff Gordon had a strong car, but slapped the wall in the last 20 laps. Stewart got spun out fighting Montoya for position and Johnson, while losing a cylinder, got collected and garaged it. Jr had a strong car, but got taken out of the action when Stewart got spun, Jr checked up and Kyle Busch slammed him hard in the back end. It was a crazy race.

It was so crazy, the last 10 laps, the 5 car finally got back out on the track , but JR was driving it, according to the Fox sports casters.

Here's today's results:
