Matt Kenseth Wins at Bristol, Shakes Up the Chase
(Filed under: Race Recap)
Don't count Matt Kenseth out of the Chase yet. He dominates at Bristol, winning the pole, leading the most laps, and coming home with the win--his first since March 2004.
The Chase got interesting with strong runs in weak cars from Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Tony Stewart, who all ended up in the top 10. Earnhardt even had the help of three lucky dogs. Three.
Now Jeff Gordon is in 10th place for the Chase, suddenly back in the game. Kenseth is in 11th, up four spots in one race, only 11 points behind Gordon. Dale Jarrett dropped three spots back to 14th with a bit of a temper. I'm not sure there's anything brown can do for him.

I loved how it was obvious how much fun Dale Jr. had. I think he's alot like his dad that way - just loves to race as long as it's fun.
