Stay in the Driver’s Seat —Cagle

I’m surprised Jeff Hayzlett, Kod-ak’s marketing maven, didn’t bother to point out that Kodak machines keep on rolling, even in tight spots.

It was truly disappointing, however, to see my favorite driver Jeff Gordon give the race away. Gordon led for 51 of the 90 laps and enjoyed a lead of three car lengths over eventual winner Tony Stewart. But Gordon drove his car too hard into Turn 1 of the winding road course and bobbled just before spinning out on the next-to-last lap. That opened the door for Stewart to weasel his way into victory lane.
