I love the quote, which says:

Carl Edwards took the lead from Busch with 64 laps left. But Edwards' lead was brief. He was forced to pit with a left front tire and moments later Busch was back in front.

Wouldn't having a left front, I am assuming in contrast to all of the other cars that did not have a left front, actually be to your advantage? Or could it be that he had to carry around his own spare, which would indeed hinder his ability to lead the race.
