5:28 PM and just three final rounds remain. The high wispy clouds have moved into the area, the sun is low in the sky, and the track is in it's best shape of the day. Kurt had a great reaction time, but The Old Man went him one better, with the best leave we've seen from the GM Goodwrench Pontiac in a long, long time. Coming into this race, WJ said, "I want to win this one for the Geritol set." and he did just that. That gives Johnson his 70th win, and moves him ahead of John Force into second place on the all-time wins list. Congrats to the Georgia Gang!
