Okay so it was not the weekend, but the boys of NASCAR finally got on the track.

Tony Stewart won the rain-delayed NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Watkins Glen International on a steamy afternoon, muscling an ill-handling car in the early going and then holding off Marcos Ambrose over the final 25 laps for his Cup-record fifth victory at the famed road course.

Stewart, listed at +300 to win the championship, has finished first or second in eight of the past 11 Cup road races.

He has finished fifth or better in eight of his last 10 starts, all top 10s, and leads Jimmie Johnson in the standings by 260 points.

Ambrose was second, a career best, and Carl Edwards third. Kyle Busch, Greg Biffle, Juan Pablo Montoya, Kurt Busch, Max Papis, Clint Bowyer and Denny Hamlin rounded out the top 10. Pole sitter Jimmie Johnson, seeking his first career road win, finished 12th.
