Wondering if anyone ever found out if the rifle Carl Edwards was holding after he won the pole last week in Texas was actually a Henry?

As mentioned in the other thread, it sure looked like a Golden Boy to me.

Logano seems to think it was a shotgun.

Great race today at Bristol.

Congrats to Carl Edwards.

He deserved to win this one.

Jr salvaged an unbelievable 2nd place after falling to 40th when his car would not go on the first lap.

Tony Stewart to Return:

But not without controversy. In a separate story, he just got Fined by Nascar.

Pretty good race today at Richmond.

Tony did OK for his first time back finishing at 19th.

Not too bad considering he had to pit with a flat tire to boot.

I'm not a fan of Cousin Carl nor of Toyota but I was delighted that on the way to the checkers, he bumped the 18 out of the way ... my girl finished on the lead lap in 24th, wooooo whoooo :D

Yeah, I was a little surprised to see that, especially to a team mate, lol, but Carl said that he knew Kyle already had a win and took his crew chief's advise on the radio to go for it. Still not sure that I would have done that though.

I watched that bump and run finish a few times online. I heard the last few laps while driving.
I was impressed with Kyles response after the race. He took it like a man said it was racing.
Load on Sunday and Shoot all Week.......okay it's a Mare's Leg I will reload on Wednesday. ;)

His response reminds me of Dale Sr.

Well, the 5-Lug Nut Rule is back on.

No doubt due to Tony Stewart's out spoken words.

...although the Fine against him for speaking out about it, still stays. As of now anyway.

They are. I heard it on the radio this morning, but here are the details of it on Nascar.com:

Are they kidding? They would only use four? Seems like the vibration would be over whelming.
