DAYTONA 500 - SEASON OPENER - Feb. 12, 2006

Jimmie Johnson (48-Chevy) won a two-lap shootout Sunday to claim the victory, capping a roller-coaster week that saw NASCAR kick his crew chief out of competition for cheating.

Johnson stayed calm and avoided trouble in a wild race that saw Tony Stewart (20-Chevy) eliminate three contenders: Jeff Gordon, Matt Kenseth and himself.

Rocketman Ryan Newman finished 3rd, Stewart 5th, Dale Earnhardt Jr. 6th, and Jeff Gordon 25th!
