Ricky Bobby says, "If you ain't first, you're last," so at Talladega, everybody finished at the bottom except Chase Elliott who took the lead from Joey Logano late and hung on during a crash-filled final few laps. The Chevy Team made a GridCard winner of KMac (42), his first Hamlin-Hopper of the year. The GEICO 500 carried KMac but cost Kevin K (32) a second win in as many weeks.
A total of ten Gridders posted Qualifying Scores--all of whom also earned WPNs for defeating the ProGrid Tour: Rico (33), GB55 (32), Ace (30), summerman (30) Jodyann (30), btninja (30) keyz (29), and CraigW (29). Poor play triggered another Rollover Game and Rake when no PGT player managed a QS.
