Kyle Busch: Not to pound the Hendrick drum but if not for the pit mistakes the last few weeks, which I find suspect;
he would have three wins, two in Cup and one in the Busch Series. Never fear though, he might not win the championship this
year but look out when he has a team (Joe Gibbs Racing) that has his back.
Martin Truex Jr.: First career pole and another good run, this kid has stepped out of Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s
shadow and is creating a shadow of his on. He is ready to seriously challenge for wins and championships that is if Dale Earnhardt
Inc. can fix their engine problems.
Unimpressive:
The Chase: If not for the performances of Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, and Clint Bowyer the chase might have been
actually good this year. I think adding two more cars and awarding points for winning races to your starting Chase position
really messed up a good thing.
