Cup Series: It was a Dark and Stormy night... - 21 February 2013

It was windy, it was cold, and it was slick. Those are the words best used to describe the Pre-Season 250 from Atlanta Wednesday night. 8 entries were on the list to try and win at one of the toughest tracks and in some of the roughest conditions. Zach Michael dominated both practice sessions and won the pole by almost a half second. But slowly working his way up the charts was teammate Rob Scarberry. Zach lead the field to green and was leading until pit stops took place where Rob overtook Zach in the pits. Ron Stout ran well and even lead at one point but poor pit stops cost him a chance at the win. Zach continued leading when the night's lone caution came out just before halfway for Steven Davis' blown engine. Both drivers used their best strategy's to try and win and it was Rob who came out ahead by 2 seconds after the final pit stops took place with 25 to go. However, Zach caught up to Rob and overtook his teammate for 1st and for victory!
