Was it me ...

... or was Sunday's race a snoozer?

Dustin's story hit all of the big developments: Johnson vs. Stewart, Montoya vs. Gordon, Mark Martin vs. retirement.

I'm a little surprised. I expected Atlanta to be a little wilder. Maybe it's the fuel cells? I wonder how many popped tires we would have seen if the drivers were hauling an extra four gallons (9-11 laps worth) of fuel.

I enjoyed it, especially Juan doing as well as he did. Appears he's settling in quite well contrary to my earlier assertions that he was gonna be cannon fodder in this series.

Can't wait until he gets on the road courses. I believe it'll be safe to say that JGordon, Stewart, & RGordon are gonna have some serious competition.

At this point, appears it's gonna be a very good year for the Hendricks org. JeffG woulda finished in my estimation in the top five if he hadn't screwed up the pit stop getting the wheel well fixed and instead of speeding and going to the back of the field, didn't and got a lap down.

It was a yawner.. move it to Saturday night...I think all races should be night races.. colder air and speeds go up, tighter tracks make closer racing...

Just my opinion.
