Stewart Catches Fire in Fontana

There's a big lesson to be learned after Fontana: Never count out Tony Stewart. 

Ever.

At a track where he's never won before, in a Chase that he wasn't expected to dominate, Smoke beat out Clint Bowyer and blazed to a win.

And while the dreams of several other chasers went up in the smoke of blown engines and crunched metal, Stewart kept his team's championship hopes afire with his performance at the Pepsi Max 400 at Auto Club Speedway.

Bigger picture? He gained five spots in the points, moving up to fifth place.

And if he can pull off a repeat performance Saturday at Charlotte, he'll be sitting in first.

Consider yourself warned.
