....but She didn't.
First girlie home was Johanna Long in 22nd place, four laps down. Of other notables, Travis Pastrana was 26th, 22 laps down, and Danica was eventually classified 30th, retired because of accident damage. Probably the most notable finish was young Darrell Wallace Jr., who finished 9th on his NNS début in the #20 Gibbs Toyota. |

Danica was all on for the win until the wall jumped out in front her.

Good, solid side-by-side racing that kept me interested even when Stenhouse was up front dominating with minimal safety cars and a good crowd.
Funny how that despite the hype surrounding the All Star and Indy, this produced the best televised racing from North America over the weekend along with the trucks. |

Running the pressures too low? Heat from the brakes melting the bead of the tyre?
Not necessarily directly her fault, I grant you, but it didn't happen to Johanna Long! Roll on Charlotte; another track, and maybe another excuse.... |

^ Actually the even lower tier ARCA race at Toledo was the best race of the weekend. Half mile, not overly wide or banked, just enough room to pass if you are skilled or get yourself in some trouble if you're not so talented.
