Definitely going to be on our minds for years to come, what a finish.

The 29 owes it all to Matt Kenseth.. what a push, almost all by himself. He come from like 10 cars back for the win and Kenseth get's bottled up in the crash. What a push. First words from Harvick should have been thank you for the victory Matt Kenseth.

Oops, forgot to add.. Kyle busch has an amazing car all day, I though he was going to pull it off too.. too bad.

How about thanking NASCAR for holding off on throwing another caution, even though half the field wrecked again and there was a car on its roof?

If Nascar had thrown the yellow no one would have slowed down that close to the finish and they knew it.

I thought Kenseth had a strong car for the last laps. He had a good position until the final caution. I noticed how much he could pull away before that.
Ah, poor Martin. I was going for the old bastard.

Getting the lead at the end of the 500, keeping it is totally different. In most cases you have at least 10 cars behind you that have a shot at a top 3 or a win and much of the time its almost impossible to keep that lead in the last few laps.

I think leading the last 24 laps and only getting beat because someone ran into you is pretty admirable.

Thanks NASCAR for not calling a caution when the cars behind the leaders were getting smashed to bits.

Not too bad at all. Kyle Busch is a young punk that needs his ass beat really bad. Stewart had the winning car either way.

Awesome ending, I was going for Martin too. I was never a fan of his, but I feel bad for the guy never winning the 500 in 23 tries.
