LATE RACE INCIDENTS PROVIDE INDIGESTION AT RICHMOND, EARN TOP SPOT IN THE TOP 10 TUMS® MOMENTS

RICHMOND, Va. (May 5, 2008) – The 10th stop of the 2008 season at Richmond International Raceway had the stars of the Sprint Cup Series experiencing heartburn. From tire troubles to several late race incidents, a fair share of big-name drivers had several TUMSâ moments. Each weekend PRN lead anchor Doug Rice picks the Top 10 TUMS Moments from the weekend’s racing activities.

This week’s Top 10 TUMS honors go to:

10. Media outlets get cheated on a great long running story line when it's announced that Carl Edwards has signed a three year contract extension with Roush Fenway Racing.

9. Juan Pablo Montoya spins and hits the wall on lap 138, taking him out of the top 12 in championship owner points. Montoya moved inside the top 12 after his runner-up finish in Talladega last weekend.

8. Jimmie Johnson fails in his bid to win three in a row in Richmond, as the Lowe's Chevrolet is never really competitive throughout the event.

7. Johnny Sauter brings out the first caution of the day on lap 66 when his right front tire goes down sending Sauter into the wall. So far his run in the No. 70 car has been less than stellar.

6. AJ Allmendinger's promising run disappears when he tangles with Michael McDowell on lap 260.

5. Matt Kenseth is a part of the 10 car wreck that brings out the red flag on lap 229. Kenseth's downward spiral continues as he falls to 22nd in points and further away from the Chase.

4. After finishing second in the Daytona 500, Kurt Busch continues to struggle in the points standings as he finishes 42nd and falls to a distant 24th in the championship point race.

3. Kyle Busch suffers a huge public relations nightmare after tangling with Dale Earnhardt Jr., costing Jr. a chance for his first win in 2008.

2. Native Virginian Denny Hamlin dominates the race by leading 381 laps only to have a flat tire rob him of sure win. He would be penalized for deliberately bringing out the caution and finish 24th.

1. Jr. Nation was poised to celebrate a win, but Jr. and Kyle Bush get together with just three laps remaining sending Jr. into the wall and crushing the hopes of his fans and extending his two year winless streak.

Stayed tuned each week for the Top 10 TUMS Moments to see what drivers and teams are most in need of TUMS fast relief.
