An up and down day for both G2 Auto Racing owners. FBG Racing saw a potentially huge points day go for not in the waning laps under the California sun. With all three drivers running strong throughout the day, two of the drivers would go on to not even finish the race. Kasey Kahne got loose in turn four and destroyed the back end of his Mountain Dew Dodge. He admitted later that it was his mistake of driving to hard into the corner. Jeff Gordon lost a cylinder like several Hendrick motors throughout the day. While he tried to stay on the track, he was eventually black flagged for not keeping a safe minimum speed.
