Ryan Newman Finishes 2nd In the Autism Speaks 400 at Dover

Ryan Newman and his #12 Alltel Dodge team had a great day at Dover International Speedway for the Autism Speaks 400 finishing 2nd!

Newman ran in the top 5 all day and usually was in the top 3. Newman led 135 out of the 400 laps.

Newman appeared to be good on restarts then would either fall off just a little, or everyone else would get a little better.

Martin Truex JR. won the race today. This is his first Nextel Cup series win. Congratulations to him.

I had to listen to the race on the radio while at work and followed it on Fox Trax, but I was at work and could not pay 100% attention.
