Two of my favorite Atlanta finishes from previous years, well worth the watch:
2005 finish: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbyHGAxe1ts 2001 finish: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qt5zgd07lEc Should be a good race on Sunday, and I have a gut feeling Kevin Harvick will be the one stopping Jimmie Johnson from getting his third straight win. |

Jr got the pole. The 09, 46, and 90 all go home. The latter 2 have yet to make a race.

Great to see Carl Edwards in the old Scott's livery, I used to love that car. (I think NASCAR.com went a bit far calling it a ''retro'' livery though)
Nice to see Montoya right up there on the start too. |

Nice to see Ambrose constantly up the front in the practice speeds, hopefully he can get a top 10 to boost his points and keep him in the top 35.

Not really expecting Elliott nor Labonte to have a real shot at extending those tallies though 50ish mins I'd say. |
