Danica started 18th and as the race progressed, early on she had problems with the tachometer and electrical. She even had a "small" fire behind the instrument panel of which she tried to put out while racing under green. As she said over the radio after the incident, "I had no idea what I did or didn't do those last 2 laps."
In the last quarter of the race, Danica went down a lap, as did most of the field. Only 12 cars were on the lead lap. She did post some really fast lap times, but it took a little while to get there. On short runs, as it was for the end of the race, she just didn't have enough time to get the car going as fast as it was earlier. Still, she did run a great race and the #10 GoDaddy Chevy team did a great job making good adjustments along the way.
On to Las Vegas, where "The Stalk" is on! Will "FanBoy" get his 4th DanicAl photo and 7th face-to-face meeting?
