Richmond Results - Hamlin and Harvick are Top Picks - Kenseth Gets a Stage Win Point for 2 Teams!!!


Logano cheated and won the race... But nobody picked him... thankfully. However, 3 Rookies had a great race and were our TOP PICK this week.

1st place team Fast took Harvick who earned 47 points.  Hamlin also earned 47 points for Let's Go (up 2 spots to 6th) and 14th place Sexy.

Graziano jumps up 2 spots to 15th with his 38 point Larson pick and a 35 point Truex pick keeps Kiss in 3rd.

EH...:

Kenseth picks up a nice Bonus point for his stage 1 win and 33 points for Penguin and Spinning.  Penguin remains in 2nd while Spinning loses a spot and sits in good shape in 4th place.

Our most popular pick this week was a red hot Bowyer who earned 27 points for Shepard (5th), Dust (+1 to 8th), Skidmarks (10th), Piston (11th), Ideal (12th), Retired (13th) and Beef (-1 to 16th).

DOOTW:

Kyle Busch had a very strong car in practice but earned a disappointing 21 points for Rusty (-1 to 7th) and Pursuit (-2 to 9th).

BSOTW:

Chonk falls a spot to 17th as a very impressive Erik Jones wrecked out of the race very early to earn Chonk just 1 point in Richmond.  Chonk is definitely off to a slow start, but if you know your history you know that he is definitely not done.  With the potential for huge swings this year, I would not be surprised to see Chonk back in the fray in a few races.

OTHER RAMBLINGS:  

Dega this weekend... should be some more shaking going on, but you never know.

I haven't talked about it much thus far but we have 4 different teams that could lock themselves into the Chase with another win... unbelievable to me.  Less than half way to the Chase and Fast, Kiss, Shepard, and Skid will be locked and loaded with just one more win.  Impressive.

Good luck this weekend and happy Cinco de Mayo amigos!

Salud!
