May 6 - Griffin Motorsports CEO and owner Lincoln Griffin had multiple reasons to smile Saturday as he celebrated his birthday by watching team captain Dale Earnhardt, Jr. capture his first win since last July when he won the Crown Royal 400 at Richmond with GM drivers Kevin Harvick and Greg Biffle hot on his heels. Earnhardt and Harvick had the dominant cars of the evening, with Biffle pushing hard for the front in the closing laps of the race. With the exception of a 6th-place effort by captain Tony Stewart, FBG Racing had an abyssmal race, with two racers well off the pace within the first 40 laps. Adding insult to injury, Griffin Motorsports pulled off the first "perfect" weekend in G2 Auto Racing history, scoring all five drivers in top ten qualifying positions (including the pole-sitter), with all three finishers in the top five, all three having led laps, all three finishing in the top G2 points spots and having a driver win the race. FBG Racing CEO Frank Gordon was recorded as saying "Ouch." Posted by Picasa
