Huge slip from Mark, allowed Logano to put a bumper to him and drive off. Logano on his way to victory lane at Pocono.

Okay, the pundits on TNT have no clue. First, they think the teams should have a right to know where the loops are on pit road so they can speed between the loops. The drivers who were busted for speeding were going over 61mph in a 55mph pit road. End of story. If there was a problem with the loops, 43 drivers would've been penalized. Instead, it was 14 and most of them, after being told to slow down, were penalized for going over 61mph again.

Then, they said Mark's mistake cost him. Logano had the best car and was there the entire time (and even put a bumper to Mark). Logano would've put Mark head-on in the wall if he couldn't make a clean pass, and he's proven that time and time again in the Nationwide Series. That's how Logano has always raced. In fact, that slip probably allowed Mark to finish second instead of him finishing 32nd.

Then, they talk about Kasey Kahne's "bad luck". Kasey Kahne intentionally bodyslammed Denny Hamlin and took himself out of contention of a top-five finish. That wasn't the track's fault. That wasn't luck's fault. That wasn't Hamlin's fault. That was Kasey Kahne being over-aggressive (which has caused him to wreck at least six cars already this season) as usual and taking himself out.

TNT's coverage is idiotic.

You should thank me for pushing you in to that pick. :lol:

Thank You :buddies: Your 100% correct ! I was thinking about it after Joey won the Pole yesterday , however Joey is great one day and the next day I wonder who going to drive that HD20 car in 2013 . I believe that question has been answered . Joey will never equal Tony Stewart Wins & championships driving that HD20 car and HomeDepot & Joe Gibbs should realize that .

Momentum means everything... look what happened to Keselowski last year. Besides, Logano's been solid the last few weeks ever since his Nationwide win at Darlington. He's finally got the confidence he's been needing.

We see this every single year, one driver comes on strong and gets hot during the summer months. 2009, it was Martin and Montoya who rode a hot streak in to the Chase. Last year, it was Keselowski.

With the crew swap, the momentum and the confidence Logano has (especially to outrun a veteran like Mark Martin like that), I've got to believe he's found his form now.

I've added them up since HD20's having his moment of glory.

Standings after Pocono:
Clevalley 32+3=35 (Dover picks)
OldHillCrestGuy 27+3=30
HomeDepot20 22+7=29 :dingding:
Huntr1 26+2=28
Baja28 25+2+27 (Dover picks)
Dipstick 20+3=23
Dutch6 21+2=23

Clevalley is the luckiest son of a ##### on here, guess we found who has Jimmie's horseshoe. 12 points from first to last... If HD20 has another seven point week, it's wide open.

Also, I dropped Calcopf since he hasn't filed any picks since Daytona.
