Nextel Cup: Last Race

[Galaxy]

Anyone watching. Stewart just about clinch that title, as long as he stays out of trouble and finishes strong, with Johnson spinning out.

Tony just needs to avoid trouble. So far he's run right around his clinching spot most of the day, it'll be interesting to see if he takes it a little easier now that Johnson is out.

I do like this track.

Dola...

At least they are racing, I can't watch the Bills get taken behind the woodshed anymore.

[PackerFanatic]

Good race by Biffle and Edwards, Stewart did just enough to win the title

[KevinNU7]

What a horrendous trophy

[RendeR]

The old Winston Cup Trophy was so much better, it had three towers and 5 total statues on it and it was almost as tall as the drivers. I miss Winston.....*sigh*


As for the season, WOOOOOOhOOOOOOOO!!! GO TONY!

Win at the brickyard, second Driver's Championship, best Chevrolet team on the circuit. Congratulations Tony Stewart and the Entire Home Depot Racing Team.

I have to say my sporting teams are looking up for a change, Championship with Tony Stewart, The Sabres are playing excellent Hockey right now, much better than they've shown in years. THe Bengals went toe-to-toe with The Indianapolis 5 Ring Circus and could have pulled it out, we're sitting at 7-3 and still in a tie for first with Dorksburgh.

Its a good winter so far.

Congrats to Tony. Glad his career is back on taget after those debacles a couple of years back.
