Jimmie Johnson lucky number 1.


Jimmie Johnson lead a total of one lap in Sundays race but that one lap was all it took for him to earn his second win of the season (matter of fact he really didn't lead that one until the finish line). Greg Biffle started on the pole but quickly lost the lead to Tony Stewart. It looked like it would be a battle between Stewart, Martin and Kenseth as they took turns swapping the lead throughout the race. Late in the race Kenseth pulled out and looked like he would take his second victory in a row but a late caution brought Johnson right up to the #17 and that's all he needed. With only a corner to go Kenseth could not hold off the #48 as Johnson took the highside and Kenseth went low with Johnson winning the drag race to the checkered. Top ten listed below:

1. Jimmie Johnson
2. Matt Kenseth
3. Kyle Busch
4. Kasey Kahne
5. Jeff Gordon
6. Mark Martin
7. Jeff Burton
8. Greg Biffle
9. Casey Mears
10. Denny Hamlin
