It's amazing how bringing back Todd Parrott all of the sudden turns DJ into a winner again. Great strategy and a great move by Jarrett at the end.

Look out for the "old man" in 2006.

Newman and Stewart have really separated themselves from the rest of the pack in points, if they don't make a mistake, the rest of the Chasers will be out of contention

Jimmie Johnson bumped Elliott Sadler in a TURN, and then The big wreck.

I was at the race this past Sunday, and it was fantastic. Jarrett wasn't even really a factor until the Green-White-Checkered. Most of us in the grandstands thought that it was either Stewart's, McMurray's, or Newman's race to win. Great driving by Jarrett. The fans went crazy!!

Talladega is a track that I really really want to see a race at. And Bristol. I've only been to Dover.

Besides his #2 qualifying position and his confidence by not utilizing Happy Hour practice, you could pretty much tell Jarrett was one of the stronger cars. He's very good at laying back and missing the "Big One". There were a couple of times on Sunday after pit stops when he would charge through the pack reach the top 10 and fall right back to the rear out of harms way.

LacesOut, you have got to get to Talladega someday soon. When you do, make sure that you're there for the whole weekend. It's one huge party. Just remember to bring the sunscreen! I'm burnt to a crisp.
