Rowdy finally got his first win of the season. He's dominated a lot of races this year, but just always finds a way to not finish first. Maybe he'll stop whining, slightly, and move on now. I'm sure it wasn't tense at all in the Hendrick garage on Monday after Kasey Kahne got into Jimmy Johnson going into turns 3 and 4 and cut Jimmy's left rear, which ended his day early. Clint Bowyer managed to squeak out a stage win by staying out and not pitting at the end of stage 2. I guess he needed those bonus points to help him in the Chase.

Let's get ready for some road course action this weekend at Watkins Glenn. The cup boys will be qualifying and racing on Sunday. The road courses always have the potential to get real exciting, especially on restarts. Will a road course junkie do well this week, or will we see the same trio of contenders at the top?


Next Race: Watkins Glenn on August 6, 2017
