Well ok, this might be a little biase being from the uk, but you can’t disagree with the fantastic job the Dario Franchitti did at bristol. For starters i really thought he managed to get pole for the food city 250, well until cale gale came along. was it just me or did we not see any of the pole lap on speed? Anyway 2nd place on the grid woohoo for dario, but then taking the lead and holding his own for what was it 90 odd laps? Dario has shown he can do it now with a bit of seat time and more time at the tracks, we need to get him back into cup and fast!

Honestly
I was hoping he would win and was sooooooooooooo happy to see him be so competitive and in the lead. Making the transition to nascar is not an easy thing. After losing his ride, he needed this shot in the arm and hopefully will get a full time sprint cup ride in 2009.

I'll admit..I was impressd.
I figured he would get passed by the second lap and just work his way backwards. Now, considering it was Bristol, that makes it doubel impressive to me!
