Since the race was at my favorite track, (Bristol), I decided to tape the race and watch it later. Well, I just finished watching it, and I must admit that I LOVED the finish. Jeff Burton 1st, Kevin Harvick 2nd, and Clint Bowyer 3rd.

Anyone that has read my bio will see that my favorite race teams are any RCR teams, so this finish today was extra sweet for me. The reasons RCR teams are my favorite is simple: my dad used to work for Richard from 1991 until around 2003 when my dad came down with diabetes and retired. Dad used to do the yard work at the raceshop and out at Richard's house and farm. The other reason RCR is my favorite is because of the late, great Dale Earnhardt.

I know in todays race, Harvick tapped Tony Stewart and put him in the wall. Before the Tony fans start, let me say this: Other than the RCR drivers, Tony is another one of my favorites. But hey, this is Bristol, the most EXCITING track on the NASCAR circuit.

Congrats to the entire RCR organization.

This is one tape that will be labeled to keep from getting erased, and going into my NASCAR archives.

NDD...I can't believe I missed this post.

I'm not really a huge fan of any of RCR's teams, but I do have a ton of respect and admiration for Richard Childress and the success he and his teams have had.

That 1-2-3 finish was one for the record books.

And being a semi-fan of the #20 team, I LOL'd when Harvick and Stewart got together. Like two peas in a pod, they are.
