For fans tired of Toyota's dominance over the latter half of the regular season and into the playoffs, Friday's first practice session results were a welcomed sight.

The nine fastest cars in the session were all Fords, led by Brad Keselowski. Rounding out the top ten was Kasey Kahne's Chevy in 10th place. The fastest Toyota was that of Denny Hamlin who ran 12th fastest.

We are indeed just talking about practice, but with the way things have been going all year, fans will likely take this as a great sign that the race on Sunday won't just be more of the same.
