    Quote of the week:

    "I was hoping they'd throw stuff at me so they'd have to call the race for that reason. Anything that was showered down on that race track today would have been fine by me."

  • Denny Hamlin

    Denny's hoping he's saving up all his good fortune for the last 10 races, because he's certainly not using it now. He was muttering to himself on pit road during the rain delay.

  • Matt Kenseth

    NASCAR's "Invisible Man" has 10 top-10 finishes this season, about the same number of times the No. 17 has been spotted on TV.

    Wonder if Jimmie's getting "tired" of having problems in three consecutive races?

    The rain delay was so long, Tony could have flown to Eldora, taken a couple of laps on the grader and been back in time for the anthem.

  • Jeff Burton

    Jeff hasn't scored a top-10 finish at Michigan since 2002, so this would be a perfect time to turn things around.

  • Martin Truex Jr.

    If the last three weeks have been a preview of what happens if Martin takes over as the top dog at DEI, I'd say that team's in good hands.

    I wonder how many beer cans got thrown at the TV set by ex-Junior fans on Wednesday morning?

    The last time Kevin had four consecutive finishes outside the top-10? The first four races of 2006.

    Michigan could be a good place to get Jamie's season back on track. He's finished on the lead lap five times in a row there.

    Michigan -- where Greg's had five consecutive top-10 finishes -- could be the perfect antidote for whatever's ailing the No. 16 team.
