How 'bout Tony Stewart coming from behind *several* times Sunday in Miami?! Got a hole knocked in the grill early on, fell to 40th, drove all the way up to the top five, had problems with teh air guns on not one, but two pit stops and fell outside the top ten....sat out a rain delay...clutched it to get ten more laps out of the fuel mileage...rain came again, and Tony held off a hard-charging Carl Edwards to TIE the final points standings. Didn't win a race *all year*, until the Chase started...and ended up WINNING five of the last ten races - still more than Edwards did all year long - and that's how he got the title. No one else has even won three Chase races in its history.
That race Sunday was the epitome of a championship battle.
GO TONY!
