#Nascar Think Kyle is missing Addington now?

Bad restart for JPM which probably cost him the race. #nascar

#Nascar Kurt Busch wins the Kobalt 500 on lap 341 of 325! Congratulations Kurt! Thank god it wasn't JJ.

#Nascar Kurt takes the lead, Kenseth takes 2nd, Montoya, Kahne, Menard

#Nascar Looks like Montoya missed a shift.

#Nascar Coming down to green, Kurt, Montoya, Menard, Kahne and Kenseth.

RT @bobpockrass: .. BK i..said Carl took three swipes at him before getting him. #nascar - They showed at least 1 on Fox.

RT @SherryPollex: I said someone would pay him back but was referring to a little rough racing. Not trying to kill the guy and flip him over

RT @jeff_gluck: Pic: Brad's car. Yep, lucky to be alive after that, I think. #nascar http://bit.ly/cBaSkJ -- Wow! Glad he's ok.

Just getting back to garage. Missed other wreck...I hear Martin, Hamlin among those in it. Didn't see it. #nascar

#Nascar Tony is up to 22nd, Dale Jr 24th, Ryan is the 1st car 1lap down in 28th

#Nascar Line up at the caution: Kurt, Montoya, Menard, Kahne, Kenseth, 'Dinger, Bowyer, Kyle, Biffle, Vickers 10th

#Nascar Tony and Jr are back on the lead lap at least, 26tha nd 27th

BK: "He pulled off pit road with payback in mind. He got it, and about killed a bunch of ppl in the process."

#Nascar Pit strategies are going to determine this race. Menard 1st, Bowyer, McMurray, Kurt 4th, Montoya, Truex, 'Dinger, Kahne 8th, Biffle

UPDATE: Brad K says Carl nearly killed him or someone in stands and should be suspended for "at least" Bristol, maybe more. #nascar

BK with Voda. He's smiling. Seems ok. More in a minute http://bit.ly/aQFMxm

Pic: bradk lives. http://bit.ly/aLwuhD

RT @jeff_gluck: Why is Carl still on the track? #nascar should act immediately and park him for the day. -- I think they heard you.

Carl has been parked for the day and called to the #nascar hauler after the race #nascar

#Nascar Oh Man, sure looks deliberate. Especially since Carl tried it twice. Denny has got to be laughing his behind off. Glad Brad is ok

Standing at infield care center. BK just walked in, said nothing yet. Holy crap that was huge.

Why is Carl still on the track? #nascar should act immediately and park him for the day. That was as blatant as it gets!

#Nascar Restart will be Green, White, Checkered

RT @tenzanojiron: @SpringWolf Wow! It's déjà vu! --- Pretty close to it yeah. The flaps coming up and it still flying..wow

#Nascar Oh dear...was that Carl, or was that really an oops? Oh dear...

Brad K is walking....lucky to be alive, folks. #nascar

#Nascar Oh no...Look a little like Carl got into BradK, The 12car flips up and lands on it's roof against the outside wall. Flaps deployed.

Carl got his revenge. Bad move, Carl.

#Nascar BradK crash, caution is out.

Caution!!!! Brad K terrible wreck!!!

#Nascar Kahne 2.0 in 3rd. Montoya 2nd with only .6sec back from Kurt.

Why didn't Hornish try to race JPM harder so that Kurt his teammate would be in the clear?? 4 to go!

#Nascar 6 to go, Montoya .85 back. Come on Juan!!

#Nascar Kurt still leads, but his gap has closed to .98 in front of Montoya.

Wait...here comes JPM! Got .2 tenths that time! #nascar

#Nascar Tony is fighting as much as he can, he's moved up to 28th, just behind DaleJr, both 1 lap down.

Less than 7laps to go and Kurt Busch looking strong. 1.2 sec lead over JPM, then Kahne, Kenseth, DINGER!

#Nascar Just an FYI...Jimmie is in 17th 15sec back.

#Nascar 11 to Go, Montoya still 1.5sec back. Kahne 2.8sec back, Kenseth 3.9, BradK 4.1, 'Dinger 4.3, Bowyer, Truex, Menard, Biffle top 10

#Nascar Kurt still 1.5sec in front of Montoya. Kahne and Montoya are closing the gap to the 2.

@espnascar2924 He's been doing good!

Doubt anyone could have predicted this: No Hendrick cars in top 15. #nascar

#Nascar Tony is now in 30th, last car 1 lap down. 31st 2 laps down, Ryan Newman. Our guys didn't have a good day today.

#Nascar Kurt still leads 1.5sec in front of Kenseth, Montoya, Kahne and BradK in 5th. Crap..tony has tire issues and has to come in.

#Nascar Tony has dropped back to 20th...egads..Come on Smoke!

#Nascar DaleJr has moved up to 27th, still 1 lap down

@tynew TYNE!

@espnascar2924 Matt has been in the top 10 all day. #Nascar

RT @jeff_gluck: Waiting .. to record how much sound the full field makes. Loud thunder is 110 dB. Will it be louder? - I'm betting 120

RT @jeff_gluck: Waiting .. to record how much sound the full field makes. Loud thunder is 110 dB. Will it be louder?

#Nascar Lineup for restart Kurt, Kenseth, Montoya, Kahne, BradK, 'Dinger, Bowyer, Truex, Menard, Biffle top 10, Kyle, Vickers, Tony, Speed

Waiting for the restart at the pedestrian tunnel to record how much sound the full field makes. Loud thunder is 110 dB. Will it be louder?

I've been mistaken for him 100x. I have the right 2 bust his chops RT @mndyhooe: Leave poor BV alone he doesn't look like fighting irishman!

#Nascar Tony will restart 13th, JJ will restart 18th with 30 to go.

#Nascar Tony dropped to 14th on the restart. JJ comes into the pits for service under this caution.

She is correct RT @Franco52: We got a coed watching the race with us. Saw Vickers profile. She said he looks like the Norte Dame mascot

#Nascar Back to Green with 33 to go.. Kurt takes the lead, caution waves Sadler gets together and gets turned infront of Papis.

Another caution: @elliott_sadler and @maxpapis

Check that -- @dennyhamlin did not pit again for adjustments.

After the pit for a new tire, and subsequent pit for adjustments, @dennyhamlin returns to the track in 20th position.

#Nascar Raceoff pitrd: Kurt, Kahne, Kenseth, Montoya, Bowyer, JJ, Truex, 'Dinger, Biffle, and Tony is shown in 12th.

#Nascar Leaders coming into the pits again.

RT @bobpockrass: Denny Hamlin flat tire. #nascar -- brought out the caution

Caution. @dennyhamlin dives to pit road. Looks like a left front tire issue.

#Nascar Lap 287 - Caution

#Nascar Tony has dropped back to 11th. Hopefully he'll get the new tires warmed up and be back in the top 10

#Nascar Kahne takes the lead back from Hamlin with 42 to go. Just for the worriers..JJ is 3.7sec back from the leader.

#Nascar 44 to go Hamlin, Kurt, Kahne, JJ, BradK, Kenseth, Montoya, Bowyer, 'Dinger and Tony in 10th.

"Bullsfan24" in the SBNation chat says it will be a blessing when Gordon gets rid of "Steve Lefart."

RT @thehestercution: the Paul Menard Empire has a lot to celebrate this weekend -- Just wondering...who exactly is in the Empire?

RT @JennaFryer: Double J says something fell of the 2 car, and he ran over the debris to get the flat. -- He had misfortune???

Paul Menard is currently in first place. Just thought I'd tweet that while I still can. #NASCAR

Interesting banter between @kaseykahne and Easy. When you're that dominant, you don't want to screw it up with an ill-timed adjustment

#Nascar Kahne comes in for service amongst the other leaders

50 laps to go...green flag pit stops taking place. #NASCAR

JJ pitting, feels like he had a flat tire

The Church of the Great Oval » Blog Archive » NASCAR Atlanta Astro-Predictions http://retwt.me/1Mqzt (via @ChurchGr8Oval)

#Nascar Tony coming in under green for his pit stop. 4 tires and fuel.

I'll try to find out after the race what happened to the 88, Team RT @Umad80: @jeff_gluck According to @martysmithespn it was a hub problem.

#Nascar 55laps to go, pitstops are coming up soon. Will they be under green or will a caution tighten up the field?

#Nascar Kahne now 4sec in front of Kurt, JJ is 4.6sec back, BradK 7.6, Kenseth 8.3, Montoya 9.7, 'Dinger, Menard, Tony and Truext top 10

RT @jeff_gluck: Some people don't. RT @ga1pest: I repectfully disagree --It's better than the usual race here at Atlanta

Word. RT @Jkrameratc: @MartySmithESPN Marty I'm watching from home and I'd agree with you. This has been a good show so far

RT @lorils79: haven't been able to watch the race. What happened to Jr? -- Pretty much the same thing that happens every week to him.

Kahne. 126 as it currently stands. RT @kkr9fan: @MartySmithESPN can you tell me who has led the most laps today so far?

Some people don't. RT @ga1pest: I repectfully disagree, unless we have just lowered the bar on a great race.

RT @brantjames: Twitterpoll! How does Jimmie Johnson take the lead in the next 64 laps? #nascar -- He doesn't

Some people agree with me. RT @corbers: It's been a great race. ... RT @circlejtp: Absolutely a fun race to watch.

#Nascar JJ now 3.6sec back. Hope it stays this way.

Aw crap...I just tweeted like the exact same thing as @Martysmithespn. Promise I wasn't copying.

First The Who at the Superbowl, now the AMS race. I say both are great shows, those at home say i'm an idiot. In-person, it's damn good.

Interesting take from Harvick PR. RT @RCR29KHarvick: Our day has been like riding a teeter totter. One run we are loose, tight the next

#Nascar Kahne leads, Kurt 1.8sec back, JJ 2.2sec, Hamlin 3.4, Kenseth 4.8, BradK 5.4, Montoya 6.7sec, 'Dinger 8.4, Tony 10.6 & Menard 11.7
