So why did they throw the caution for the 66 NOW after he had already been sitting there for a lap or more??? Afraid Robby would pick up another position or two???

It was just strange they waited so long but didn't let it finish under green.

Well, once again Robby runs the best race, most skillful driving, and the finish position won't show it. *sigh*

Last year after the Busch race we would all have been pissed off but getting that top 5 sunday made it feel a bit better right ?
Could have the same tomorrow. Just worried about that starting position that's all. Nice to see the car second in that last practice session. Might get all the good luck we needed today, tomorrow.

if we dont overheat..then we get atop 10 maybe top 5 as with no cautions we never would have gotten a chance to get the leaders..

NOW if we followed the franchitti startegy and no t pit on lap 40 and come in at 45 etc...we would have been in the mix (if no overheating problem)

the decision to come in on lap 40 sealed our fate (ie it was an il timed caution and we chose badly)

my 2 cents
