NASCAR Fun League

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” :(

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
