Truex leads with 86 to go.

Keso restarted in back for speeding.

Truex, Blaney, Joey, Elliott, Bowyer the top 5. Elliott restarted in 9th. 73 to go.

 

[GA_Boater]

Byron wrecks for yellow. Juice is leaking out on the track.
58 to go and leaders pit.

 

[GA_Boater]

Truex out 1st, followed by Joey and Elliott.

 

[GA_Boater]

LaJoie stayed out, Truex around him and Elliott into 2nd. Lajoie jumped the start.

43 to go, Truex and Elliot must win to start above the cut line - No pressure!

 

[GA_Boater]

Elliott to the front! 39 to go.

 

[GA_Boater]

Truex has a loose wheel from the last pit stop. Still in 2nd, Joey on his tail.

Joey and Blaney pass Truex.

 

[GA_Boater]

Elliot leading by 4.7 seconds. Harvick and Keso are at the cut line, Keso above and Harvick below.

 

[GA_Boater]

14 laps to go.

 

[GA_Boater]

10 to go 5+ second lead for Elliott.

 

[GA_Boater]

Elliott wins!
The 4 playoff drivers are Elliott, Logano, Hamlin and Keselowski.

Harvick 1 point below the cut line! He tried to push TWT just before the line and didn't get the 1 point he needed to tie just above the cut line.

First time for Elliott to make the final 4. He and Hamlin will be racing next week at Phoenix for their 1st championship. Joey and Keso will be trying for #2.

It looks like I'm a bridesmaid again. Final iFL points on Tuesday.

Sad to see Happy not get in. Not a fan of Brad or Joey, even worse to see them both in, one of them I could live with.

Go Chase!!!

One thing for sure, if Joey and Keso are both still in it in the closing laps of the Phoenix race, it will be a bloodbath.

1 Hendrix car, 1 Gibbs car and 2 Penske cars. It will be a dog fight between the 4 to be ahead of the other 3.

So basically Hamlin avoids Keso, Joey, and Elliot until they knock each other out of the race and then Hamlin cruises to the Championship victory ...

 

[GA_Boater]

Or they crunch him in the middle? Hamlin wants his 1st crown, so he won't be so nice either.

What is said about a tie? Humpty's buddy and Vega Kid kissed their sisters on Sunday at Martinsville. Congrats, Vega. Ole Buddy gets a .

End of the season at Phoenix on Sunday.
