It's a team effort coming to these places and having great race cars. I'm really excited to be starting up front, especially with my teammate Matt Kenseth on the front row with us." He was joined on the front row of the grid by Kenseth. Bowyer qualified third, Kahne took fourth, and Truex Jr. started fifth. Menard, Waltrip, Johnson, Ricky Stenhouse Jr., and Biffle completed the first ten positions on the grid. Race Kyle Busch started on pole, but Matt Kenseth led the first lap. Busch would then re-take the lead and lead the next 30 laps. The first caution waved on lap 24 when Paul Menard blew an engine. Jimmie Johnson took the lead on the restart at lap 32, as Busch started to drift back in the outside line. Johnson led until lap 70 when the caution came out as Joey Logano hit the wall in the middle of a round of green-flag pit stops. Johnson had not yet pitted and would have to restart 17th behind the cars that had already made pit stops, giving the lead to Denny Hamlin. Nonetheless, Johnson would draft back up to the front and push Jamie McMurray past Hamlin to take the lead on lap 94. The third caution waved on lap 101 as Martin Truex Jr. got sideways and collected Hamlin and Juan Pablo Montoya, also giving Busch some significant front damage. Truex would be the only one to retire following the crash. Johnson took the lead on the restart and held it all the way until the fourth caution waved on lap 126 for a crash involving David Stremme, Aric Almirola, Greg Biffle, and A. J. Allmendinger in the tri-oval. Both Stremme and Almirola would retire from the race. Following the lap 133 restart, Johnson held the lead and was joined at the front by teammate Kasey Kahne (who was subsequently passed by both Kevin Harvick and Tony Stewart). On lap 148, the fifth caution of the race came out for a large crash in the tri-oval. It started when Denny Hamlin lost control near the entrance of pit road and turned up the track. He went head-on into the wall and was hit by A.J. Allmendinger and Dave Blaney, almost causing Hamlin to flip. Matt Kenseth, who swerved while trying to avoid Hamlin, cut down and collected Jeff Gordon and David Reutimann, totalling six cars in all. The red flag was displayed for nine minutes to allow for cleanup and the race restarted on lap 154, with Johnson and Kahne jumping ahead of Harvick and Stewart. As they began lap 156, Johnson moved up to block a fast-approaching Marcos Ambrose and nearly lost the lead. However, Johnson blocked Ambrose out of turn two, which caused Ambrose to swerve and knock Kahne into the inside wall, bringing out another caution. Ambrose would subsequently have to pit for repairs as Johnson held the lead. The race restarted on lap 160 (going past the scheduled distance of 160 laps and eventually ending after 161 laps) for a green-white-checker attempt with Johnson and Stewart holding the lead over Harvick and Clint Bowyer. As the field worked through turn one, Carl Edwards was turned around by Scott Speed in turn one, collecting Marcos Ambrose, Bobby Labonte, Joe Nemechek, and Landon Cassill. No caution was thrown for this wreck, which happened behind the leaders, and the field continued racing. Approaching the tri-oval, as Johnson held off Stewart to win his fourth race of the season, Danica Patrick cut down the track and was turned by David Gilliland, collecting Ryan Newman, Kyle Busch, Ricky Stenhouse Jr., Casey Mears, Greg Biffle, Jeff Burton, Terry Labonte, and more. Harvick, Bowyer, and Michael Waltrip rounded out the top five. Of note, by winning this race, Johnson became the first driver in 31 years (since Bobby Allison in 1982) to win the Daytona 500 and the Coke Zero 400 in the same year.http://www.news-journalonline.com/article/20130706/NASCAR/130709805?Title=Jimmie-Johnson-wins-Coke-Zero-400-enters-record-book Jimmie Johnson wins Coke Zero 400, enters record book News-Journal Online July 6, 2013 July 7, 2013 Results Qualifying Grid No. Car number Driver Team Manufacturer Time Time in seconds Speed Speed in MPH 1 18 Kyle Busch Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota 46.458193.723 2 20 Matt Kenseth Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota 46.560193.299 3 15 Clint Bowyer Michael Waltrip Racing Toyota 46.594193.158 4 5 Kasey Kahne Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet 46.595193.154 5 56 Martin Truex Jr. Michael Waltrip Racing Toyota 46.601193.129 6 27 Paul Menard Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet 46.614 193.075 7 55 Michael Waltrip Michael Waltrip Racing Toyota 46.618 193.058 8 48 Jimmie Johnson Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet 46.630 193.009 9 17 Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Roush Fenway Racing Ford 46.636 192.984 10 16 Greg Biffle Roush Fenway Racing Ford 46.645 192.947 11 10 Danica Patrick Stewart–Haas Racing Chevrolet 46.649 192.930 12 99 Carl Edwards Roush Fenway Racing Ford 46.656 192.901 13 14 Tony Stewart Stewart–Haas Racing Chevrolet 46.662 192.876 14 42 Juan Pablo Montoya Earnhardt Ganassi Racing Chevrolet 46.665 192.864 15 2 Brad Keselowski Penske Racing Ford 46.680 192.802 16 88 Dale Earnhardt Jr. Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet 46.681 192.798 17 31 Jeff Burton Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet 46.699 192.724 18 22 Joey Logano Penske Racing Ford 46.701 192.715 19 13 Casey Mears Germain Racing Ford 46.701 192.715 20 21 Trevor Bayne Wood Brothers Racing Ford 46.733 192.583 21 39 Ryan Newman Stewart–Haas Racing Chevrolet 46.748 192.522 22 78 Kurt Busch Furniture Row Racing Chevrolet 46.756 192.489 23 24 Jeff Gordon Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet 46.766 192.448 24 11 Denny Hamlin Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota 46.768 192.439 25 9 Marcos Ambrose Richard Petty Motorsports Ford 46.827 192.197 26 29 Kevin Harvick Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet 46.838 192.152 27 1 Jamie McMurray Earnhardt Ganassi Racing Chevrolet 46.905 191.877 28 38 David Gilliland Front Row Motorsports Ford 46.935 191.755 29 7 Dave Blaney Tommy Baldwin Racing Chevrolet 46.986 191.546 30 43 Aric Almirola Richard Petty Motorsports Ford 47.045 191.306 31 98 Michael McDowell Phil Parsons Racing Ford 47.171 190.795 32 36 J.
