07/31/2010 - Long Pond, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Elliott Sadler held off Kasey Kahne during a second green-white-checkered finish to win the inaugural Pocono Mountains 125 Camping World Truck Series race at Pocono Raceway.
Just after the restart for the first two-lap overtime finish, Sadler got a push from behind by Justin Lofton and moved ahead of Kahne to take the lead. Johnny Sauter got loose and bumped into Ron Hornaday Jr., as Hornaday spun around and then slammed into the infield wall in turn three. That set up the second green-white-checkered attempt.
Sadler easily pulled away from Kahne after the final restart and beat his Richard Petty Motorsports teammate in the Sprint Cup Series by 0.45 seconds for his first truck win in his eighth start.
"Kasey races me so clean, and he's the best teammate in the world to have," said Sadler, who started on the pole and led 31 of 55 laps. "He was good on the bottom, and I was good on the outside. When we had that last restart, it just worked out for us. I knew he was going to be the guy to beat."
Driving the No.2 Chevrolet, Sadler became the third different Kevin Harvick Inc. driver to win in the last three races. Harvick picked up the win two weeks ago at Gateway International Raceway, while Hornaday claimed his first victory of the season last weekend at O'Reilly Raceway Park at Indianapolis.
Sadler also became the 21st different driver to win a race in each of NASCAR's three national touring series. However, Sadler had not won a NASCAR event since September, 2004 when he took the Sprint Cup race at Fontana, CA.
"I told these guys [on the team] on the last lap that I pretty much had tears in my eyes," he said. "It's been such a tough couple of years."
Kahne, who drove the No.18 Toyota for Kyle Busch Motorsports, tried to capture his third win in as many career truck starts. Kahne won in each of his first two starts, which came at the tail end of the 2004 season.
"It was a ton of fun racing this truck for Kyle, and this is a really good team," Kahne said. "We should have been battling Elliott. I had the best truck, but I didn't win the race. I'm disappointed in myself for that."
Matt Crafton finished third, followed by Aric Almirola and rookie Justin Lofton.
Mike Skinner, Austin Dillon, also a rookie in the series this year, Timothy Peters, Denny Hamlin and Jason White completed the top-10.
Hamlin held the lead late in the race, but the Sprint Cup regular scraped the wall and fell behind.
Points leader Todd Bodine overcame a spin in the closing laps to finish 12th. Bodine now holds a 149-point advantage over Almirola.
Hornaday took a huge hit in points after his 29th-place finish. The four-time and defending series champion dropped to seventh in the standings, as he trails Bodine by 268 points.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
