Notes
Bobby Labonte made his 550th Cup career start. Kurt Busch led more laps in this race (234) than the total laps in his 2008 season (164). Kurt Busch's win and brother Kyle Busch's win in the last race (2009 Shelby 427) resulted in brothers winning two races back-to-back. The Busch brothers, also, won consecutive races in 2008 with the first Loudon race (Kurt Busch) and the second Daytona race (Kyle Busch). Jimmy Watts, crew member for Marcos Ambrose's #47 car, retrieved a tire that had rolled across the pit lane and was halfway across the infield grass on lap 69. He would be suspended for 4 races and was put on probation for the rest of 2009. Crew chief Frank Kerr also was put on probation for the rest of 2009.

Famous quotes containing the word notes:
“My weary limbs are scarcely stretched for repose, before red dawn peeps into my chamber window, and the birds in the whispering leaves over the roof, apprise me by their sweetest notes that another day of toil awaits me. I arise, the harness is hastily adjusted and once more I step upon the tread-mill.”
—“E. B.,” U.S. farmer. As quoted in Feminine Ingenuity, by Anne L. MacDonald (1992)
“Of all the horrid, hideous notes of woe,
Sadder than owl-songs or the midnight blast,
Is that portentous phrase, “I told you so,”
Uttered by friends, those prophets of the past.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“A little black thing among the snow
Crying “’weep, ‘weep,” in notes of woe!
“Where are thy father & mother? say?”
“They are both gone up to the church to pray.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
