Random Atlanta Observations












--Of course, the one time that I don't pick a JGR car, one goes to victory lane. However, I don't think I'd have much credibility if I picked one to win every week.

--Pardon me for being thankful that Elliott Sadler wrecked his car enough not to continue after causing a third straight caution. That was getting old.

--Brian Vickers can miss the race this week and be locked into the top 35. Not too shabby.

--OMG! Hendrick didn't win again!

--This open wheel thing isn't working out too well as of now. Why do we insist that these drivers jump straight to Cup? What good is marketing if they're never on television during the race and (maybe, in a few weeks) missing the race entirely?

--Michael Waltrip Racing still needs to get their act together. None of the teams are very comfortably in the top 35; but they've at least made the show every week.

--I was wrong about Scott Riggs. Jeremy Mayfield still hasn't done much, but Riggs looks like he won't be falling outside the top 35 any time soon.

--The tires stunk. Tony Stewart said it better (and vilier) than I ever could.
