I arrived just in time for group qualifying and the track was heavy, heavy. In spite of high temp, blazing sun, a strong breeze, and running heats in sunshine the track held up well. A bit of minor track prep before the feature was done to smooth things out. The feature started out crazy with more slicing and dicing than at a Japanese steak house (that was bad but couldn't resist). Leary jumped out to a big lead but Grant started working his way to the front. He was reeling Leary in when a red occurred. A couple of laps later Grant made a bonsai move to the bottom of one and exited in front of Leary. This was not really a slide job, he just swung wide and powered through the corner. There was little doubt about who would win as Grant pulled away. Not a close finish but an exciting race with action everywhere and guys trying to run anywhere from the bottom to bouncing off the cushion against the wall. Looking forward to 4 days of racing at Smackdown.

That's a good one! You know someone else will use that term now.
