I still have not had time to watch the entire Pocono race, nor listen to my recording of the audio. So I copied this race recap off of http://www.ajallmendinger.com/
AJ 17th at Pocono
After a day of waiting for the rain, and the weepers, to clear, AJ Allmendinger raced his way to a fourth consecutive top-20 finish with his run to 17th in Monday's Sunoco Red Cross Pennsylvania 500 in the #44 Valvoline Dodge for Richard Petty Motorsports.
Starting from 29th in the field as the grid was set by points after rains on Friday cancelled the qualifying, AJ made steady upward progress during the opening segments to race in the top 15. He was also helped by some good pit work, with the 44 crew outshining the 33 guys at one point as the two cars stopped simultaniously, with the 44 making a faster exit.
But one extra stop for tires on lap 182 meant that AJ only had a few laps of green to fight his way forward from losing track position and falling to 26th. But he did just that, picking off cars left and right to take 17th at the checkered flag.
