VEGAS RESULTS:
Truex dominated Vegas winning both stages and the race. Shepard and Skidmarks picked him so they join Fast Wheels with their 1st win! Plus they get 5 huge bonus points if they qualify for the Chase in the top 8 spots! Skidmarks has another solid week as he took 3rd place car Elliot last week. While Shepard bounces back from the DOOTW pick Newman in Atlanta. Congratulations guys!
The rest of us finished in the top 10, except for DOOTW Chonk (Kahne 12th), and BSOTW league rookies Retired and Let's Go (Newman 17th)... Not bad for those awards but considering a 9th place Kenseth pick puts you finishing 30 points (WOW!) behind the race winner... It was a bad day at the race track.
ATLANTA RECAP:
League rookies Fast Wheels took race winner Keselowski taking home a win plus 3 bonus points if they qualify for the Chase in one of the top 8 positions. Congratulations guys!
Skid, Ideal, Rusty, Piston, Rusty, Rookie Sexy, and Rookie Retired all had a solid points day as well.
Let's Go, Beef, Kiss, Pursuit, and Graziano had an Eh... Kind of day.
Spinning and Shepard got the DOOTW in Atlanta.
Penguin and Chonk get the BSOTW with their Dale Jr pick.
OTHER RAMBLINGS:
So where does that leave us???
League Rookies and the spawn of Rusty Truck are leading us! That is awesome! But can it last???
Seasoned veteran Skidmarks is running 2nd. No surprise there.
Another Rookie, Sexy Chicken is running 3rd. Not bad.
Last year's 2nd place finisher Chonk is running in last place after a rough start to 2017. It's early... I don't think he'll stay back there.
One thing is for sure, the stages are making it very interesting...A lot of points can be gained or lost in one race, so nobody should be feeling cocky right about now.
BONUS POINTS & WINS:
Shepard 5 bonus points and 1 win.
Skidmarks 5 bonus points and 1 win.
Fast Wheels 3 bonus points and 1 win.
Piston 2 bonus points.
Rusty 2 bonus points.
Cheers!
Fat Penguin
