Coming down to the wire in Texas

Max points for Jill & Dave on “Shibumi” means the B trophy is all but sewn up. The A trophy on the other hand, is hotly contested. The top 3 are all within 25 points of each other, with 2 races to go. Can “Clutch” Strickland hold on? Will “In the fast” Lane take the trophy home a 3rd time? Is “QoS” too far behind to catch Clutch? Is there a dark horse back in the pack who will “snatch victory from the jaws of defeat”! It won’t be me (Bryan “Spacebar” Spahr)… I’ve been “mathematically eliminated” :(

2007 Texas Fall

On a happier note – that was the best 5 laps I’ve watched in a long time. Matt “Robot” Kenseth was a gnat’s hair away from caving in JJ’s quarter panel and sending them both “Yard Sale” down the backstretch. (You know, a yard sale – where you put all your junk from the deepest innards of your house all over your front lawn…). But Robot held on to it and JJ only wet his pants a little, then went on to win by a country mile. Read more glowing praise for MK and JJ at NASCAR.com

He could… go… all… the… way!

Three players, Sonya QOS Spahr (65 max points), Cindy “Clutch” Strickland (55 points) and Jill and Dave “Shibumi” (55 points) had all three of their drivers in the top five … and picked up BIG points.

Jake “JBA all the way” Altizer just might go “ALL THE WAY.” He has 110 total points after 2 races. He earned 25 points for Jeff Gordon, Carl Edwards and Tony Stewart (remember his drivers) … plus 10 bonus points thanks to his three drivers finishing in order … for a total of 35 points for the week to hold his first place spot in the battle for the Big “A” Trophy.
