Welcome to the 2013 LFN Season!
The tone was set early in this race as some of the huge favorites to win wrecked out early (Tony Stewart, Kevin Harvick). Danica…impressive? Not bad, hung around top 10 all day, finished 8th, a good gamble by the Pecos Flames to start her. Bad day to be a Toyota as their engines kept blowing up one-by-one, taking out some more favorites (Kenseth, Ky. Busch). But the race ends like it usually does, a crap shoot to the end, with ol’ 5-time holding off JR to get the win, and the skin for Barqs Motorsports.
