First practice is over at Texas. A strange group at the top of the leader board. Looks like some guys were working on qualifying set ups and others on race set ups? 21-95-37-77-47-42-3-1-17-4

Some big names didn't make it through tech and missed qualifying including 3 Hendrick cars. 88-24-42-5 and 3 bottom feeders. JJ qualified 24th so it looks like Hendrick has lost their way a bit early in the season.

Not a bad race today on a slippery Texas track. Big surprise today as Chad Knaus found some speed overnight to get Mr. Johnson to the win today. Here were your top 10 finishers today: 48-42-22-4-88-2-1-78-24-41

Its been 2 weeks and its gonna be even longer with no track action at Bristol today because of persistant rain today. Rain could be an issue all weekend they say. Qualifying was to go later today but was cancelled so the starting lineup will be set by owners points. Here are your top 10 starters: 42-24-78-2-22-21-18-1-14-4

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/...ng-canceled-kyle-larson-awarded-pole-position

Pole positions for the race. Interesting on how they figured it out for today. Has that happened before?
The way I understand it Zal is if they get a practice in before qualifying then the starting line up is determined by the fastest speeds in the first practice. If they can't get a practice in before qualifying then it goes by owner points coming into that race. They never ran a practice until after the determined pole qualifying session thus the line up was based on owners points. Clear as mud. Lol.
