Toyota/SaveMart 350

Aw, nothing like a peaceful drive thru wine country. Ok, I can only imagine it must beautiful for a Sunday drive thru northern California along wine country.
Well last weekend as we were on our drive home from up north visiting Mike's Mom, NASCAR has its own version of a Sunday drive and it is called road course racing. It is one of two races where the drivers get to go left and right, hey sounds like everyday traffic in Minnesota. Back to the race, we give a standing ovation to Kasey Kahne he brought the first win in a long time Richard Petty Motorsports. As a matter of fact they also had Elliot Sadler and AJ Allmendinger finish in the top ten. Way to go guys good things come to those who wait. Also great finish for Tony Stewart and little by little Tony is opening up a good lead going towards the last ten races for the championship. I hate to say it, but Dale Jr. again not the best finish, all in due time.

I keep wondering if in the last ten races you have a good combination of great tracks but not road course why not. I want to challenge NASCAR to really make it worthwhile by adding a road course race as part of the final ten races. Just a suggestion, we would love to hear from other fans what they think.
