I didn't hear anything about the showdown last month. What happened?
Logano, who was in second place coming out of turn three on the final lap, slid up into the race leader, Peyton Sellers in turn four, forcing Sellers into the wall, causing Sellers to crash just short of the finish line. Logano crossed the line first, just ahead of Matt Kobyluck.

Here's the video on Youtube:


YouTube - last lap joey logano and Peyton Sellers crash

The following is from the "Toyota Speedway at Irwindale" website:

Matt Kobyluck emerged from a wild three-way battle for first Saturday night to became the first driver to win two NASCAR Toyota All-Star Showdowns. Joey Logano slid up into Peyton Sellers while going for the lead in Turn 4 coming to the checkered flag. Kobyluck, who was running third, came across the start-finish line a nose behind Logano. Logano was penalized for his move, though, giving Kobyluck a second NASCAR Toyota All-Star Showdown to go with the one he won in 2006.

The story continues here:
