Kyle Petty returns to the drivers seat after 7 weeks off
"We had a good test with Kyle last week at Road Atlanta and we feel pretty good about it going into Watkins Glen," crew chief Cooper said. Ummm yeah.

Mark Martin dominated The Glen from 1993-95, and Jeff Gordon held the reigns from 1997-99. Tony Stewart has won three of the past four -- and four of the past six -- races at Watkins Glen.
Stewart and Gordon share the record with four wins at the track.

I think this is the race where Gordon was leading very late last year and he spun out... giving Stewart the win. That didn't suck. But overall, road courses arent' my thing.

Oh that was great. I was so happy that day.
I like the Glen.Much more fun to watch than the Sonoma road course earlier this year.

Boris Said will drive Kyle Petty's #45 after Said did not get a chance to qualify his car due to the rain.

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. -- The Chase for the Sprint Cup championship is still five races away, but series leader Kyle Busch can take his first step toward winning it with a victory Sunday at Watkins Glen International.
A sweep of this season's road-course events would clinch the top seed in NASCAR's 10-race playoff for Busch, who currently holds a 40-point edge over Carl Edwards in the bonus points that decide Chase seeding. Since drivers receive 10 Chase bonus points for each victory and only four regular-season events remain after Watkins Glen, an eighth win on the season would give Busch an insurmountable 50-point edge over Edwards, who has won four times but had his bonus points at Las Vegas Motor Speedway deducted for infractions found on his car.
