7:55 tonight, is the Pepsi 400.

Boris attributed it to his equipment, and compared himself "the chimp that gets to fly the rocket".

Do you think Boris and Smoke will make it to turn 1 without Smoke running Boris below the yellow line.

Hey that should be a poll...

I say NO

Well, Boris made a liar out of more than one person tonight by taking fuel only during a late race caution (a great call by crew chief Frank Stoddard) and restarting in the lead, eventually able to hang on to a well deserved, hard fought fourth place finish.

Great job Boris!

I laughed at myself as I was driving home and said aloud to the wife "We gotta hurry up, the Pepsi 400 has already started!"

I know the name of a NASCAR race, and what time it started... new day for me

I was yelling at the TV for the last 7 laps hoping for another caution and some more luck for Boris... 4th place isn't shabby!

I watched the race, it appears that when racing in Nascar you need "friends" Stewart got the the bump passed Boris to win the race. I don't normally watch Nascar but is that what it takes to win?

I just think it's funny because the only reason most of us are even paying attention is because boris is a solid road-race guy...turning left sucks

NOTE: If anybody wants to pay me millions, I'll gladly turn left too
