Casey Mears Scores First Win on Fumes
(Filed under: Race Recap)So Casey Mears finally gets his first win and he does it on fumes. And out come the naysayers whining and complaining about gas mileage races. Please. I loved the finish. It was incredibly exciting to see whether or not Mears would have the gas to make it, or if it might go to Kyle Petty--who's last win at Charlotte came some 20 years ago (it was still his best finish in 10 years). I've said it before, gas mileage finishes are great. It sure beats six cautions and a green-white-checkered in the last 20 laps.
First car to the finish is what wins races, and that doesn't mean the fastest car. Tortoise and the hare, my friend.
