- Jimmie Johnson won the Chevy Rock and Roll 400 by .365 seconds over Tony Stewart here at the "Action Track" Johnson officially took the lead for good on lap 391 of 400...and battled with Stewart over those 10 laps. Denny Hamlin, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Mark Martin rounded out the top five.
- Clint Bowyer finished 12th; Kasey Kahne 19th, and David Ragan 32nd. That jumped Bowyer to 12th in points. Bowyer drives a Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet Impala SS. Kahne missed the Chase, as did Ragan. No Dodge is in this year's Chase.
Here are the drivers in the Chase. All 12 have had their points reset to 5,000, and received 10 bonus points for each win. In the case of ties, the tie breaker was best finish beyond race victories (which means top 5s, 10s etc.).
- Kyle Busch/5080--8 wins
- Carl Edwards/5050--5 wins, less a 10 point penalty from Las Vegas
- Jimmie Johnson/5040--today's winner
- Dale Earnhardt, Jr/5010
- Clint Bowyer/5010
- Denny Hamlin/5010
- Jeff Burton/5010
- Tony Stewart/5000
- Greg Biffle/5000
- Jeff Gordon/5000
- Kevin Harvick/5000
- Matt Kenseth/5000
David Reutimann led the most laps in the race--104 out of the 400, and finished 9th.
We'll rejoin you from Zmax Dragway in Concord, NC for the first race in the NHRA's "Countdown to One" next weekend...and later this week with details on our 20th Anniversary Contest.
