Hola Amigos! I am going to change it up a bit this week and take care of what really matters... The picture is much clearer this week, but some things are still up in the air for the final race before the Chase.
Housekeeeeeping Note: I refreshed the new rules for this year in a new post... click this ---> NEW RULES FOR 2014!!!
Firstly, Ideal and Piston get a nice Kahne win this week. Nice job fellas!!!
Ideal is locked in on points, takes over the #1 spot, and cannot be lower than a 5th seed to start the Chase. Boom!
Piston gets a huge 4th win and will also not start the postseason lower than a 5th seed. Bam!
Graziano drops 2 spots, but is also locked in on points. He could drop into a tie for 6th, but I don't think that will happen. Yahtzee!
Chonk is kind of limping in, but his 5 wins will make up for any lost spots... Technically, he could finish as low as 7th, but his wins will count for bonus points for the Chase. I look for Chonk to have a big week and roll into the Chase with some much needed momentum. Huzzah!
Kiss's 4 wins will also count for the Chase! He too can also qualify in the 7th place spot, but he is in and will get at least 12 bonus points for his 4 wins thus far.
Skidmarks still has some work to do... he is in the Chase and in 6th place, but is not locked in the top 7 thus far. He could finish 3rd, but he could also finish 11th. Richmond will determine if he will start the Chase with 1000 points or 1002+ points. I cannot wait to see how he plays it this week.
Shepard is sitting in 7th with 2 wins and is our most anxious team (okay maybe Rusty as well) at the moment. Just 15 points separate him from devestation, and technically... in total 5 teams could overtake him in Richmond. He could finish as high as the 4th place spot, but Shepard needs to make the right move on Saturday.
Dust can finish as high as 6th, but he is locked in. Will he try to get those extra bonus points or will he save one of his top drivers for the Chase???
Asleep can also finish as high as 6th and is also locked in... will he be able to overtake the 3 teams in his way and capitalize on his 4 wins or will he simply start the Chase with 1000 points????
Pursuit can also finish as high as 6th and is also locked in... Same position as Asleep, but with one less win... to save his top drivers or not to save... that is the question.
Rusty... sh*t man... getting that 3rd win has been a mutha! He potentially could finish as high as 6th. He needs to grab that 3rd win to be sure or have a BSOTWFEST for the 4/5 teams in his way. Good luck in Richmond!
Beef has a snowball's chance in hell of finishing in the top 7... but he will make the Chase with plenty of top left drivers to make some noise.
Rowdy will make the Chase and start with 1000 points. Plenty of top drivers as well. I can't wait to see how one of my top 20 favorite females in the league will do! Han Solo!
Empty will also make the Chase and start with 1000 points. Let's go racing boys and girl!
Penguin, Rasta and A-Game are officially eliminated... F*ck me... us.
Good luck in Richmond on Saturday. Let's see how the open questions get answered...
Cheers!
