  • Hook is directed cited in the article. It meets the DYK criteria of length, referencing and date of creation. I took the liberty of changing the project templates on the talk page to Start class as they were still listing it as a stub. Miyagawa (talk) 23:55, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
  • The very long single paragraph veers between past and present tense, and needs to be in past tense throughout. Might there be a way to break the material into more readable chunks? BlueMoonset (talk) 02:19, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
  • I'll see what I can do. ZappaOMati 02:30, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
  • I dealt with some of the tenses, and split the paragraph in two. Good enough? ZappaOMati 04:19, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
  • This is about the 2006 race, and yet it supports half the article. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:01, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
  • Removed '06 race details. ZappaOMati 18:32, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
"Riggs ran into Mark Martin, and Kurt Busch, Casey Mears, Bobby Labonte, and Matt Kenseth are among the drivers collected in the wreck. Riggs stated that McMurray did not signal to him that he would pit." is ungrammatical. That seems to be it. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:31, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
  • Although not mentioned here, a subsequent edit was made to this section on February 6. I'm not sure it was a sufficient improvement, however. Crisco? BlueMoonset (talk) 20:49, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
  • Woops, looks like I forgot to notify this about it. ZappaOMati 21:35, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
  • I think this looks ready now. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:13, 17 February 2013 (UTC)
