As we close out the year, it's time to bathe in the warm glow of nostalgia and look back at some of the best races of the season. We start out before the season even began, with the Bud Shootout. (Aside: NASCAR has the best preseason of anybody, hands down.)
So anyway, this race featured the best of the best, and as it wound down, Jamie McMurray had what looked to be a dominant lead. And then ... and then ... (you gotta play the video, I'm not going to tell you):
Alas, that would be the last race that Harvick would win this year; matter of fact, he'd pretty much drop off the table entirely. But it was exactly what we want out of our races (down-to-the-wire action) and exactly what ticks us off so badly (late cautions). Still, all in all, a fine way to start the season, and the next one's less than two months away.
Got a nominee for one of the best races of 2009? Let us know by email (jay.busbee@yahoo.com) or in the comments below. We'll close out the year by, you know, closing out the year.
