Race results - Vegas

We had some high scores this week, the “favorites” hurt a lot of us. Stewart and Gordon crashing out hurt some of us, Johnson’s horrible day hurt quite a few people. Kyle Busch seemed like the car to beat for quite a while, before he dropped off. It was strange to see so many typically good cars getting lapped just because they couldn’t get the handle. Edwards had a strong car, and it seemed like Biffle was probably the fastest, but made a couple mistakes that cost him track position. Ford looked strong.

Three people, Scott, Bob and Rob picked the winner. But Bob and Rob also had Gordon, and since Kenseth couldn’t stay out of Gordon’s way, that took them out. Brad had a good week, but no winner’s bonus means Scott get’s his first weekly win of the year. Regan keeps his overall lead in the pool, but Rob and Ryan are right there.

The next race is in Atlanta. This will be the first time at this track for the car with the wing (TCWTW, I’m going to try to get a trademark on that). Hendrick and Roush cars have been good here, we’ll see if the wing changes that.

The top twelve order will probably change later this week when The Carl gets some points taken away for running without an oil tank cover, but I don’t think anybody will move in or out. So go ahead and make your picks early if you want. Or keep your eyes on the Phoenix testing and see if that changes your mind at all.
