Martin's car was pretty good all night and I think Kevin probably damaged it just enough when he hit the wall.
But the pit crew put him in the position to have to drive it so hard he walled it.

well that was an awesomely rotten ending to spending 4 days in Darlington. Don't know what really happened at that last 14 lap run. Although throughout the race, (before the pit crew started sucking again, except for the big one losing 11 spots because of the air gun) he would have a very quick 10 car lead, but the bigger leads didn't come until 30-40 laps. So Kevin was either tire managing better or his car just didn't fall off as bad as the rest of the field. (God was he killing em early) so all the pit crew crap a side (i know, I know, he would have been in 1st, but...) he pitted from 2nd and came out 2nd on the last stop and just didn't have the better car for a 14 lap run. Oh well, chaulk up nu 1200 miles driven...almost!..... damn!
heading to Loudon---he runs ok there...see what happens
I shoulda hooked up with you anotherharvickfan---coulda gave you the hot pass when I wasn't using it--

appreciate that thought, we had good seats plus, the pre race drivers intro, concert ect. Been there, done that, so I just hung out in front of the stage. My friends though, wow, first time for them with that so, she was (still is) a big Mark Martin fan, she hung where the drivers got into the trucks, got lots of sig's a high five from kevin, and when she got Marks, I think she o'd on the spot. But yeah, good race, 9 he drive in the MH. We'll hook up sometime.
