NASCAR star Jimmie Johnson, tied to the same sponsor as Lowe's, shows dominance with multiple recent wins and top finishes. The All-Star event at Lowe's saw Tony Stewart join media duties while Kenseth led final practice with speeds around 875.344 mph, far surpassing Kahne.
The report lists Coca-Cola 600 details from Lowe's Motor Speedway in Concord with 400 laps on 1.5 miles, plus Carquest Auto Parts 300 and UAW-GM Ohio 25c w events. It notes qualifying records by Elliott Sadler and Jimmie Johnson, race records by Bobby Labonte and Mark Martin, and last week Kyle Busch won the Quaker Steak & Lube 200 at Lowe's for a second straight year.
Jeff Burton of Richard Childress Racing sits 10th in the Nextel Cup standings with six top tens in 11 races and eyes his 18th career victory. He argues for longer races like the Coca Cola 600 at Lowe's and suggests NASCAR help Busch Series teams by allowing extra tire sets for non Cup regulars to stay competitive.
