A rain shortened race gave Kurt Busch the win in Michigan and nobody picked him. Some of us did pick his brother though... so we were sofa king close to being right. Well, not exactly. But if you're going to shit the bed... do it before the rain out I always say.
TOP PICKS:
Beef took Dale Jr (2nd). Beef jumps up 2 spot to 4th and is only 38 points out of 1st. Beef can tell you 1st hand about how important the bonus points are... take a look at the run he had to make last year just to end up in a tie for the championship. It is not likely to happen again and our defending champ* looks like he is not planning on having to make a miracle run to repeat* this year. Good Job Beef!
Chonk took Kenseth (4th). A nice week for Chonk who gains 25 points on 8th place and is now 61 points out... he'll need to make a serious run, but a solid Michigan Race for sure.
Pursuit took Logano (5th).Pursuit gains 24 points on 8th and is only 58 points out... he has logged a win so a few more options than Chonk, but cut and paste that last part above for Pursuit.
Empty took Keselowski (6th). Empty gains 7 points on Skid this week and hangs on to the top spot for the 4th week in a row.
Shepard took Menard (8th). Shepard gains 20 points on 8th and is just 36 points away.
EH...:
Kiss took Hamlin (11th). Kiss gains a spot to 7th... 3 wins + whatever Bonus Points he can manage makes him an early favorite.
Skid took Edwards (12th). Skid holds on to 2nd but loses a little ground to Empty. He has 2 wins and has been a solid member of Club Ocho Primo.
Rusty, Graz, and Piston took Kahne (15th). Rusty stays in 3rd... Graz actually drops 2 spots to 7th, while Piston gains 2 spots to 9th just 22 points away from Club Ocho Primo.
Dust took Larson (17th). Dust drops a spot to 5th. 0 wins, so he'll have to tread cautiously... but Dust has been solid all year so far.
DOOTW:
Asleep took Harvick (29th). Harvick was once again the race favorite, and most likely would have made it back up front, but mother nature had other plans. Asleep stays in 10th, has 2 wins and actually gains a point on 8th place... so not a very musty Dutch Oven when you consider all that.
BSOTW:
Ideal and Penguin took Kyle Busch (forty fucking third). Like I said above... at least he did it before the rain delays. Ideal drops 3 spots to 8th... he has 2 wins so I'm sure there is no panic going on. Penguin drops 2 spots to 11th and I'm panicking my ass off. I want that 3rd win now!!! Where the hell is Ambrose?!?!?
OTHER RAMBLINGS:
Sonoma this week on Sunday.
I've never thought of having a pet penguin, but I'm pretty sure they shit the bed.
11 races to go until the Chase... Who will make a move?? Who will crash into turn 2?? Who will use all of there stuff up trying to get in???
Cheers mfers!
