That was an insane move for the lead by Kahne there. I'm disappointed Gordon didn't win, because his rise through the field was awesome, and I know he's beating himself up over that one... but holy hell, the way that car SHOT OUT OF A CANYON out of that Tunnel Turn was epic. Nothing at all Jeff could do, there.

Glad my mom and sis got to see an *actual* entertaining race from Pocono. :)

I fell asleep twice during this race, only because I don't get the channel IndyCar is on today. Pocono still makes me hate stock car racing on its track. They should of went to Iowa instead. Really wanted Kurt or Jeff to win also since I'm no fan of Kahne.

I dunno if it was the shorter distance or the goodyear fails bringing out a couple of cautions at random moments (And JJ being one of them helped massively) but this was a hell of a lot entertaining than the race here earlier in the year...

It's like Allen Bestwick said during the broadcast, for some reason, one of Pocono's two races seems pretty tame (i.e. boring) while the other one more than makes up for it. I thought it was a fantastic race.

I enjoyed it too. But then again, I seem to be one of the few people who actually likes seeing NASCAR at Pocono. :p

That was a great race by Pocono standards. They could actually race close to each other through the course of an entire run and even in 2x2 packs sometimes.

What a move by Kahne. He's always been a terrible starter and I thought he blew it again when Jeff got the jump only for him to pull that off around the outside.

So what was the difference between the tast of that race and Indy's shittiness, considering the tracks are fairly similar? Different tire? Drivers just getting bored and actually trying to pass?

The fact all 3 corners are different and that no car will be good in all of them.
