Stewart is 0 for 2
It’s true that Tony Stewart kept the nose of his No. 14 Old Spice / Office Depot Chevrolet clean at Auto Club Speedway, but that’s not what racing is about.  In the second race of the 2009 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season, any smoke Stewart generated was blown away by Matt Kenseth and the six other drivers who finished in front of him.

Stewart started 11th and improved three spots to finish eighth.  For comparison sake, Juan Pablo Montoya started 15th and moved up to 11th by the time the checkers waved.

Stewart didn’t go home empty handed, though.  He did win the O’Reilly People, Service and Performance award; the Tissot Pit Road Precision award; and the WIX Filters Lap Leader award.

At least it’s something.
