Jimmie Johnson wins one for Hendrick motorsports!!
That has to be the most emotional end of a race I have ever seen. Looked like lots of tears flowing, but a lot of smiles too.

Best wishes to you, Rick and family, hope you're all right...

Congrats to Hendrick Motorsports and Jimmy Johnson's team... this is what they really needed bladly right now.

I have a feeling this will be remember as a pivotal moment in the future... the day Jimmie won for Hendrick's after the accident...

:headbang: Way to bring it home, Jimmie.

(it also marks his third consecutive win)

1. I watched and had tears in my eyes.
I was pissed that Dale Jr. got turned though, he coulda been way up in the points.

3. Bummer for him....
... Ryan Newman moved up to 7th in points though, that's good. (Although I don't know how much it matters this late in the season.)

I have to admit, I was just about jerkin' a tear over here myself....

5. that was jr's fault..
he slid up into Carl Edwards. If Edwards had lifted, he would have been run into from behind. I was sorry to see J-R wreck out, though.

8. Mark almost had Jimmie....
After that last restart it looked like he'd catch him, but then Jimmie pulled away....

Mark deserves a second win this season, too.. but today belonged to Hendrick. I have no problem with that.

I am always pulling for Ryan Newman anyways. (who moved up a few spots in the points which was cool... now less than 200 behind)
