Lap 165.

That's when Jimmie Johnson will use his magical powers to make the #24 drop its gas tank while the #5 loses all four wheels at once.

Kidding aside, it's really comforting to know that Johnson has the best qualifying and finishing average at Texas among him, Gordon and Martin. In 12 races there, Johnson has scored 11 top-15 finishes and he has one lone DNF, back in 2007, when he got caught up in the incident between Juan Pablo Montoya and Tony Stewart.

On a separate matter, I read somewhere that the points difference between first and second place would be a mere seven points had they been using the old points system.
