That would be 1 of 2 victories Todd cost Dale Jr.(other one was the July 2002 Cup race at New Hampshire) Junior was very un-happy w/ Todd and when they interviewed Dale Jr. on TV, he called Todd a "Q-ball headed fool" GO JUNIOR!!! 2.

Bodine had no where to go and Junior had to act like he normally does and throw a temper tantrum because NA$CAR couldn't hand him a win. I'm not a huge Todd fan, but he's payed his dues unlike Junior, and has been compeitive in the Busch and Truck Series, and it is no fault of his own that all of his Cup teams have had poor equipment. P.S. Congrats Andy Santerre on a surprise victory. 3.

It looked like Blaney had a chance at his first win, but he kept wrecking. Jr wrecked obviously, and LaJoie and Green just lost momentum. Great win for Santerre though, and well-deserved too. Man, he was fast that day. 8.

Jeff Green had a good-sized lead near the end of the race, but Dave Blaney's spin caused a caution to bring the field back together. Green, Dale Jr., Santerre and Tim Fedewa battled for the lead after the restart - proving to be the difference for Santerre. A few laps after Santerre too the lead, Dale Jr. and Todd Bodine got together in turn one, sending Junior into the wall and ending his day a little early. "We were real tight there on that last set and I was trying to give everybody room that I wanted to race them," Dale said, "I didn't know whether I'd have a chance to win or not. I didn't want to give that up. Nobody else had any trouble getting by me. I guess that cue-ball-headed fool can't get by us without wrecking us." 13. 00andJoe posted: 03.09.2011 - 9:44 pm Rate this comment: (1) (0) What happened to Glenn Allen Jr in this race? 14. the MAN posted: 05.04.2011 - 10:21 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) he crashed 15.

But that comment Dale Jr. made was funny and a lot more useful than saying uhmmmm while picking his nose. 19. 23andJoe posted: 04.04.2014 - 5:14 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) #12 owner: Mark Albertson #12 crew chief: Allen Cretsinger #14 owner: Steve Portenga #16 sponsor: 31-W Insulation Pontiac (Wayne Day) #52 sponsor: Oliver Gravity Seperators Ford (Tony Hall) 20. 23andJoe posted: 04.04.2014 - 5:16 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Correction: #14 owner: Jim Offenbach 21.
