NATIONWIDE: History At Kentucky



Joey Logano, made history in Kentucky tonight, when he became the first driver ever to win three straight races, at the same track, and all from the pole.  Scary.

History was also made at Kentucky when the Pre-Race driver's meeting was streamed live online.  Weather was a threatening factor all night, and we had a race-record eleven cautions.  All in all, not a bad race at all.  Carl Edwards was second, Brad Keselowski was third, retaining his Points Lead, Brenden Gaughn and Reed Sorenson, rounded out the top five. 

There were, as I stated a record-setting number of cautions.  One of them, was the "Big One" which Kentucky is not noted for. 



Pretty exciting stuff, and thankfully, no one was hurt.  Unless you count the poor cars, of course.  On to Historic Road America in Wisconsin, for the first ever NASCAR sanctioned race at that track next week.  A four-mile road course that outta make for a blast of a race.  We'll see you from Michigan for tomorrow's cup race, and of course, we'll have this week's edition of the RJ's.  Enjoy!
