John Stofa Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 Wiht the top six -- Stewart, Biffle, Johnson, Wallace, Martin and Busch -- already locked in, and Mayfield almost a lock for the 7th spot (only has to finish 39th or better tomorrow night), who will take the final three spots for the 10-race Chase For The Cup?Still in the running, and their current points ranking:8. Carl Edwards9. Matt Kenseth10. Jaime McMurray11. Ryan Newman12. Jeff Gordon13. Elliott Sadler14. Dale Jarrett15. Kevin Harvick16. Joe Nemechek17. Brian Vickers18. Dale Earnhardt JrWhich three will it be? My picks are:Carl Edwards (would have to really screw up to fall out of the Top 10)Ryan Newman (look for a Top 5 finish tomorrow night)Jeff Gordon (just a hunch; I can't see him not making it) Quote
WVUBengal Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 All I have to say is Go Vickers, although I like Robby Gordon and I know that Vickers isn't eligible I'm hoping for next year. I think that Sadler might be an option since he has the most points on short tracks, also Gordon is a sleeper since he has won there god knows how many timesWVUBengak, Who-Dey Bitches Quote
WVUBengal Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 Also I would probably say Sadler, Newman, and Kenseth would be the last 3 spots in the top 10. Since Sadler is good at short tracks, Newman after the california interview feels he is good at richmond and Kenseth is on a roll. Just hope Gordon doesn't get in. (sorry to all Gordon fans, just not a fan of his). Quote
Kirkendall Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 Vicker will be a winner one day. He was in the Busch series and his team is starting to come together. I think he'll be around next year. I say the standings now, with Newman in 10th, is the chase lineup. There's going to be a lot of cautions tonight! Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 Kenseth will leapfrog Edwards, and Gordon will leapfrog Newman and McMurray, so get ready to hear some more screaming "AHHHHH! TELL HIM NOT TO PASS ME!!! TELL HIM NOT TO...AHHHHH!! HE'S PASSING ME!!!" over McMurrays radio again tonight! Quote
Kirkendall Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 PS, if 10th place is a tie, both drivers get in. Quote
Kirkendall Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 FYI, Mayfield clinches a spot with a 39th place finish. Carl Edwards clinches with a 19th place finish -- however, reports are saying he may need to change eiither an engine or transmission and if so, he'll be in the back of the field. Kurt Busch clinches by starting the race. Quote

BengalszoneBilly Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 Vicker will be a winner one day. OOoooh! There's the kiss of death right there. They said the same about ol' Dick Trickle! (That ain't a name, that's a prostate symptom! ) There's going to be a lot of cautions tonight! And a lot of hot tempers to boot! Batten down the hatches boys, this ain't no race tonight...it's pure Quote

BengalszoneBilly Posted September 10, 2005 Report Posted September 10, 2005 For an allegedly college educated driver, he's dumber than a box of rocks. Quote

John Stofa Posted September 11, 2005 Author Report Posted September 11, 2005 I'm going to go ahead and pat myself on the back on this one. I rock! Can I change my picks? LOL ... good call, man. The race turned out to be quite uneventful. Quote

The race turned out to be quite uneventful. It really did. Because the chase kinda was figured out throughout the race, rather than a 20 lap sprint between all 10th place contendas. We saw Gordon hit the wall and wave the white flag. Then McMurray gets tagged, and Sadler had a wreck early in the race. As long as Newman didn't have trouble, it was pretty much a lock of who was in and out early. Quote
