Carfax 400

WHAAAAA--HOOOOOOO!!!!! A win would have been great, but Jr Nation is still celebrating after Dale Jr finished 3rd today and also lead 6 laps. I know Dale wanted to get the win so bad and was so close after Jimmie Johnson ran out of fuel, but Jr Nation is proud of Dale after he drove from a 15th starting position and got his 2nd top 10 finish of the year. This is proof that Dale and the entire 88 team are working very hard to at least get Dale some good finishes to end the year with. Because he lead those laps and due to his great finish today, Dale has moved up to 21st in the points. While I don't think he will make the chase this year, I do think this 3rd place finish today, along with Brad's win on Saturday, was a great confidence booster to Dale and the 88 Sprint Cup team. Congrats to Brian Vickers who won todays race.
