Auto Club 500 results

Poor Junebug, the first two races of the year haven't been the greatest for him. He qualified 35th,
and moved all the way back due to the transmission being changed. Towards the end of the race, Dale Jr had a cylinder go down, and with 45 laps to go, he had his first DNF of this year when a second cylinder go down. What's odd about the first cylinder going is that Junior's teammate Mark Martin had a cylinder go at the same exact lap as Junior. Junior fought so hard this week, getting as high as 14th. I'm not going to post the points standing until later on in the season. Next week, our Junebug heads to Las Vegas, where he'll be driving the #5 GoDaddy.com Chevy in the Sam's Town 300 Nationwide Series race. Brad will join Junior as a teammate on Sunday, driving the #25 GoDaddy.com Chevy and from what NASCAR.com is telling me, Junior will have the National Guard car for Sunday's Shelby 427. I'll be checking Youtube to see if any of Dale Jr's new commerials for this year are up on there yet. If so, you'll see them here. Have a great week and I'll talk to you later!
