OPENING: Listen Up, Dale Jr. fans! Theres a big sign ahead that says "ROUGH ROAD AHEAD". Firing your crew chief in the 1st half of the season is bad but then wrecking your teammate out for no real reason is REAL BAD.

Michael Waltrip was my UPSET SPECIAL and you ruined it for me. DALE JR. isnt good, probably never will be. Let me tell you why? TWO WORDS: DADDY'S GONE! Lets face it without him the teams and DEI are falling behind way behind.

Whose idea was it to switch up these teams anyways? Probably came from Dale Jr. himself. Ok enough, Dale Jr. fans get ready its going to get worse before better!

RACE REVIEW: What a shocker Jimmie Johnson wins? But with fuel mileage and a messed up pit stop that put a butt load of good race cars a lap back saved it for me. Kurt Busch going out fast again surprised me alot.

Only one problem TOO LONG. But all the wrecks were great and watching Bobby Labonte lose then kick his car made me laugh. In the end, ok race with alot of cautions. Hey how about that Joe Nemechek's tire at the end, tough break.

PREDICTIONS: OK Fantasy Freaks here we go.....
1. LOCK OF THE WEEK-Ryan Newman (If he doesnt blow up....Average Finish 6th)
