Each week the Gillette Young Guns team that spends the least amount of time of pit road is awarded with the TimeShaver Trophy. This week, that award goes to Joe Gibbs Racing's Denny Hamlin and his No. 11 FedEx Express pit crew.

 

Just three weeks after being taken to the hospital following a hard hit at Talladega, Hamlin led a total of fifty-six laps en route to his third place finish. Taking the lead for the first time since that wreck at Talladega, Hamlin's crew put him in the lead after pitting under yellow on Lap 254.

 

Hamlin and his over-the-wall guys spent a total of 2:38.589 minutes during four stops in the 500-mile event. Finishing third on the day, Hamlin narrowly beat Penske Racing's Kurt Busch and his No. 2 Miller Lite crew - whose four-stop total was 2:39.069 minutes.

 

Race winner Carl Edwards and his Bob Osborne-led crew came home third this week, with a total of 2:40.299 seconds. Busch's Penske Racing   teammate Ryan Newman was fourth in this week's TimeShaver Challenge with a total time of 2:43.112 minutes.

 

Hardcore Race Fans throughout the country can take part in the Gillette Young Guns TimeShaver Challenge by purchasing specially marked packages of Gillette Fusion razors and collecting six collector cards.  Each specially marked package comes with a code that fans are invited to enter at www.GilletteTimeShaver.com.
