And, this run was far better than Jeff's runs in his rookie Busch year. And, we all know how his career developed.
Davey Allison was my favorite driver starting with his ARCA days, and seeing the car with the Texaco star flying along in the high groove brought back a lot of great memories.
I haven't enjoyed a weekend of NASCAR racing as much as I enjoyed today's race (and the Truck race Friday night). I'm actually hyped to watch the 500 tomorrow for the first time in years.
I believe the collective NASCAR nation was introduced to the next super star today.
Well said, Alky. Yes they were.:thumb
