Carl Edwards gave a race winning performance in the Auto club 500 held in Fontana, California. Jack Roush the co-owner of the team said he was expecting this victory of Edward’s. This is Edwards’s eighth victory for the cup and he has reached the top performance of his game. In 2005, during the first season of Edwards in the cup, he won four races and came to the third position in points. With this win in Auto Club 500, it is for sure that the Hendrick Motor sport is still having competition, from a Sprint Cup race team. Edwards gained his lead when 13 more laps were remaining and was able to finish before Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon the Hendrick team mates.

In the last season Johnson and Gordon reached the 1st and 2nd position. The Hendricks is using the Car of Tomorrow and they will use this car for the entire race schedule of the sprint cup 2008. After coming out of the final pit stop, he overtook McMurray, Gordon and Johnson. Edwards and Johnson raced side by side for more than two laps and finally Edwards was able to nose ahead and move away from Johnson’s Cheverlot. Edwards later said that he enjoyed racing with Jimmie as he is a very good competitor.
