It's a weekend with a full compliment of practices and qualifying.
Smoke managed to shred a tire and is in a backup. Let's see what
other madness we may be seeing.
Well, David Guilliland AND his crew chief got to enjoy the hospitality in the NASCAR truck after the race, Jamie Mac had another good race, Jimmie Johnson had a bad race day and I think I may have gotten more than one point. Overall, not a bad day.
Winner: David Reutimann gets his first (I think). David has been the
only bright spot for MWR and has a pretty good starting spot. I don't
think he will blow it.
+0 Coulda, shoulda, woulda. He hung around in second place or the top 5 until the end. Slipped back to 10th after the last fuel stops. He is certainly the shining light in the MWR stable right now.
1. DEJr scores a top five. I was waffling between Jr and Reutimann
for the win. I think Jr will be up there in the thick of it.
+0 Running out of fuel at the end pushed him back to 20th.
2. Smoke will fight and claw his way from the rear (starting 43rd in
a backup car) but he will push it too hard and either wreck of fade
and finish outside the top-15.
+1 The race has not been good to Smoke. He finished 16th.
3. Bad weekend for Petty Enterprises, so far. Bobby Labonte
qualified 35th and McCumbee was a DNQ. It will not get much better as
the 43 finishes outside the top 30.
+1 39th. I don't know what their problem was this weekend, but their cars stunk all weekend.
4. Paul Menard is having a good weekend. It'll continue as he posts
a top 10.
+0 Same old song, different driver. He started out well and then faded ......and faded and faded all the way to 20th.
5. Only 5 chasers starting in the top 5. No more than 5 Chasers will
finish in the top 5.
+0 That was supposed to say no more than 5 finish in the top 12., so that is the way I am scoring it. If I scored it as written, it would be an absolute gimme. One to many this week. Six in the top 12.
Segment one total - +14 Segment two total - +11 Chase points going in - +10 Race total - + 2 Chase Points to Date - + 12
