Homestead race

It was an exciting finish to the NASCAR season 2013.  About an hour into the race, the points were tied between Jimmy Johnson and Matt Kenseth but as the race moved on, Jimmy gained 19 points back and eventually won the Championship making that number 6 for him.  Matt Kenseth finished second in the race and the points.  The winner of the Ford Ecoboost 400 was Denny Hamlin.  There was a scary moment near the end of the race when a tire on Paul Menard's car caught fire and then exploded after he got into the pits.  Everyone is ok thankfully.  exploding tire
