Victory video: Smoke charges to his first Chase win of '09

So all that talk about Tony Stewart peaking too early and falling short in the Chase? Yeah, let's put that on hold. Smoke reasserted the form that had him at the top of the standings all regular season, and served notice -- how do you do that, exactly? via courier? -- that this isn't a Jimmie/Mark show. Here's how it unfolded on Sunday at Kansas:

If you're a fan of the whole Chase-a-rama, you've got to love the fact that Jeff Gordon, Denny Hamlin and Greg Biffle also had solid runs. At this point, only Brian Vickers and Kasey Kahne are really out of the Chase ... but we'll be talking more about that later this morning. For now, rejoice in the sweaty joy of Smoke's victory.
