The Allstate 400 at The Brickyard Review
Submitted from NASCAR Ranting and Raving Blog
Today’s running of the Brickyard 400 (yes, I still call it that - don’t you?) quickly turned into the Junkyard 400. The safe place to be was out front, but that nearly turned costly for Harvick and Stewart as they ‘beat and banged’ their way around the track fighting for the lead. Stewart would eventually take and never look back - even when drinking from his water bottle, using both hands mind you, while driving down the straightaway at nearly 200 mph with just 10 laps remaining. Stewart’s comment about that when asked was, “I was thirsty”.
“Here, kitty, kitty, kitty,” Stewart called out over the radio as he chased down Harvick. “Come get you some of this.”
Whether you like Stewart or not, you cannot deny that he is one heck of a race car driver and he proved it yet again today.
