Dale Earnhardt Jr. has not been cleared by physicians to compete in at least the next two NASCAR Sprint Cup Series events as he continues to recover from concussion-like symptoms. He will miss the races at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Pocono Raceway. Four-time NASCAR Cup Series champion Jeff Gordon will be the team's substitute driver at Indianapolis and Pocono.

Jeff Gordon will be the team's substitute driver at Indianapolis and Pocono.

Gordon can't give it up. Just like Mark Martin couldn't. They both should have just stayed retired. Mark's last race should have been in the 6 and Gordon's in the 24 car. Too many young drivers that could benefit from the seat time that these old guys can't seem to let go of.

At 44 Jeff is old and washed up as a driver ??

On a related topic, I did enjoy watching the CWTS race at Eldora Speedway last night. Kyle Larson won, but he had his hands full with a couple dirt-only racers.

You increased your lead to 5 , but you have 3 tied at 2nd place just waiting for you to slip up ! As for me , like I always said it's just a matter of picking the correct JGR car to WIN . As long as I continue to pick ALL the JGR cars in TOP 5 , I can't go wrong

I was out of town so I missed all but the last 20 laps, but I have to admit that the 20 car surprised me. Matt even said that his car sucked during practice and qualifying, but they kept adjusting on it and wound up with a 2nd place finish.

And for all the talking they do on television about the problems Kasey Kahne is having, the driver that would get my vote for the title of "Cant Buy a Break to Save His Life" would be Ryan Newman.

Yeah, its like Kasey Kahne got in a Hendrick ride and thought the car would just drive itself to Victory Lane. Newman has some rough luck, but I think that he does really good at getting all he can out of the car. Especially considering that the Childress cars aren't nearly as good as they used to be. My pick for "Cant Buy a Break to Save His Life" would be Greg Biffle. On the rare occasion that Roush gives him a fast car, he usually blows a tire or something else goes wrong to give him a bad finish.

Funny that to mention Biffle. He would be my #2 choice.
