The whole cycle of the first set of green flag pits stops from the start of pit road. Got great video of Brad Keselowsk locking up his tires and flying in, Sam Hornish Jr missing pit road and taking off, David Reutimann's entry and pit stop, and Martin Truex Jr's entry, stop and exit. I lost track of Truex on his out lap and ended up accidentally taking video of Bobby Labonte.

Opening Ceremony The Coke 600 Charlotte 2010 Lowes Motor Speedway
By JENNA FRYER (AP) CONCORD, NC — Kurt Busch has won the Coca-Cola 600 to sweep the two weeks of racing at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Busch won last weekend's $1 million All-Star race to roll into NASCAR's longest race of the year with a ton of momentum. His Dodge was strong from start to finish in Sunday's race, but he had to hold off a hard-charging Jamie McMurray over the final laps. Daytona 500 winner McMurray came up just short and missed an opportunity to give team owner Chip Ganassi two wins in one day. Earlier Sunday, Dario Franchitti made Ganassi the first owner to win the Indianapolis 500 and Daytona 500 in the same season. Kyle Busch rallied from a mid-race crash on pit road to finish third.

If qualifying is rained out: Michael McDowell, JJ Yeley, Reed Sorenson, and Todd Bodine will not be in the race. I do not own the images and the song used.
