Wait — what? Juan Pablo Montoya, the man who came from Formula One all the way across the pond to the lands of middle 'merica. The man who's got a talent for crashing just won his first Nascar Nextel Cup race — and it's the first race of the year won by a car other than a Chevy? Holy shnikes, we didn't think we'd ever live to see the day. And the man did it with barely a drop of fuel left in the gas tank. Wait — the Toyota - Save Mart 350 is what kind of a course? Oh, a road course. Well of course he won — I don't think the rest of the field even knows how to turn more than one direction. We'll have more coverage tomorrow morning — we need to get over the shock first.
