Vote now: How would you rate the Bojangles' Southern 500 at Darlington?

Published Sep. 5, 2016 12:30 a.m. ET

Martin Truex Jr. won the Bojangles' Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway on Sunday night, edging out Kevin Harvick.

Early action may have seemed sparse in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race, with Harvick leading a race-high 214 of the first 283 laps in the 367-lap event at the 1.366-mile track nicknamed "Too Tough to Tame."

But in large part thanks to repeated miscues by Harvick's pit crew that kept bringing the field back to him, it seemed to get pretty interesting by the end before Truex claimed his second win of the season and the first of his career at Darlington in one of NASCAR's most presitigious races.

The night also featured a Throwback theme with nearly all of the cars in the 20-car field featuring some kind of cool retro paint scheme.

Teams and drivers dressed the Throwback part, too, making it a special night on that front.

But what did you think of the race overall? Here is your chance to weigh in.
