Carl Edwards breezes to first victory in Sprint All-Star Race - USATODAY.com

Carl Edwards breezes to first victory in Sprint All-Star Race - USATODAY.com: "Yet the runaway winner still drove a heavily damaged car into victory lane.
In a race hyped as the epitome of NASCAR's no-holds-barred, 'Boys, have at it' era of high-speed lawlessness and tantalizing feuds, Carl Edwards obliterated any hope of drama and then promptly destroyed his car.
Edwards, who took the lead from runner-up Kyle Busch in the penultimate segment of the exhibition and led the final 15 laps, attempted to slide his No. 99 Ford through the frontstretch grass before taking his customary backflip. But his Fusion dug a monstrous divot in the sod and left the car's front end in pieces.

The damage was so significant, both Edwards and car owner Jack Roush figured he'd hit either a manhole cover or a drainage ditch"
