AJ Allmendinger a 10th place finish. He ran in the top 10-18 all day long and then came in with the strong finish. He was up in 8th earlier.
Kasey Kahne was a little off today. He never really seemed to challenge and finished 17th.
Paul Menard with another sub par finish coming in No. 26th, but he is in Yates equiptment, so he still gets a little bit of a pass.
Eric Darnell in 36th 20 laps down after his pit road screwup. I don't think he has shown enough to be considered for a cup ride, or really even a top flight NATIONWIDE ride.
Reed Sorenson in 40th in his last ride with RPM.
Elliot Sadler was taken out by Darnell's stupidity and came in 41st. He wasn't going to win it, or even come close but he was up in the 21-24 range at times. The better AJ looks, the worse it makes Sadler look in comparison. He needs to do more next year or he might not have a seat very long.
