Well the first race of the season for the Xfinity series is in the books and it was anexciting race to be sure. The Xfinity Series has also adopted a chase format much like that of the Sprint Cup series in which a "win and you're in" rule stands there also. It is also good that a driver can get in on points as well.

There were about 6 Sprint Cup drivers competing in the Xfinity race today, There were not many wrecks and not one "big one" during the opener. The race was won by a Sprint cup regular and the highest finishing Xfinity driver, Elliot Sadler, finished fourth.

Three out of four of the top cars were owned by JR Motorsports. In the top ten w=there were 7 Chevrolets, 3 Fords and only 1 Toyota, which was surprising since Toyota has been such a strong contender in the past.

​If this race was a prediction of the rest of the season, it is shaping up to be an exciting one.
