We had to wait a day for Hurricane Matthew to pass N.C., but Chonk didn't mind. TOP PICK Johnson dominated the race and locked Chonk into the Fluffer. With race 1 of 3 of the Teaser Round in the books with Kansas and Talladega (especially Talladega) looming, it must be pretty F-ing nice to have that win under your belt. He moves up to the top spot which is also huge since points accumulate through the Fluffer Round. AND he'll get 3 Bonus Points added to his points for the Fluffer. Congratulations Chonk!!!
Beef and Piston also had TOP 10 picks. Beef took Kahne who had a solid race and came in 3rd. Beef moves up to 6th just 1 spot and 5 points away from the top 5. Piston took Kyle Busch who had an up and down day, but somehow (f*ckngly amazingly) came in 6th. Well done fellas!!!
Shepard and Grazinao took Truex Jr. who has emerged as the favorite to win it all this year. He may want to not wreck the field on the way to trying to bring home the Championship if he wants to achieve this goal. He ended up EH... 13th and Shepard stays in 2nd and Graziano stays in 5th; clinging to the final spot to get into the Fluffer.
Rusty and Ideal didn't fare so well... Rusty took Hamlin who looked like he may challenge Johnson at some point for the lead but blew an engine late in the race to DOOTW in 30th. Rusty drops to 4th so it could be worse. Ideal had the BSOTW this week with his 36th place Logano pick. Ideal is in 7th and 26 points away from 5th... he'll most likely need 2 solid races or a win if he wants to make it to the Fluffer.
OTHER RAMBLINGS:
Our League looked a bit like the actual NASCAR Chase as we had some guys kicking ass and some shitting the bed. We have Kansas on Sunday which is usually more predictable than Talladega, but so is Charlotte... and we saw how that worked out. Available drivers is also an issue, so there's that.
I'm looking forward to seeing how it will play out... the only thing that is for certain is that Chonk will be in Fluffer Round.
Good luck in Kansas on Sunday!
Cheers!
