Congrats to Denny Hamlin on his victory yesterday. I'm not much of a Hamlin fan though. He's a bit boring if you ask me.

Here are a few random thoughts of the race...

-- Jeff Hammond did a great job waving the green flag for the start of the race.

-- I would be very happy if I never heard them talk about “Digger,” the gopher cam. I think it’s ridiculous.

-- I said it after the last race and I’ll say it again: I hate it when they only scroll the top ten in the rundown.

-- Could Matt Kenseth have had a worse day? Seriously, how many incidents was he involved in?

-- Some things haven’t changed since last season. The No. 8 car blew up. Only this year, I didn't care.

-- The one and only time that Kyle Busch could have been a hero in my eyes, he failed. He was Hamlin’s wing man and instead of trying to block Jeff Gordon, he got right out of the way. I was a bit surprised by that considering Hamlin is now his teammate. Maybe he had a flash back of last year and thought Gordon was his teammate?

-- Clint Bowyer is Mr. Consistent. Every time I looked, he was in the top ten. He’s having a pretty good season this year. Here are the unofficial point standings after yesterday's race.

What did you think of the race?

On a different note...

I was asked if I had heard anything about Ryan Moore and whether he is still racing.

I got an e-mail from his father Kelly Moore and he says: "Ryan will not be running the East Series, he works at Everham Motorsports in Statesville N.C., he heads up the brake department for the Cup cars."
