Kim and I went to Talladega for the race yesterday.
Beautiful day, sunny and 86 degrees.
These pictures are from the final lap of the race and happened directly in front of us. Luckily we were 39 rows up. Seven people were hurt in the stands from car parts and shredded fence. Carl Edwards, the driver of the 99 car, got out of the car and ran across the finish line.

Grilled hot italian sausage, drank a few beers. Monday weigh-in 246.0
