So Kansas huh??? Plenty of action for our League this week in this usually boring state. No offense to you Kansas lovers out there of course.
We have a new leader.
We had our 1st DQ this week.
We have our top 4 spots shuffling this week.
The rookies are starting to struggle...
Let's get to it...
RACE RECAP:
Nobody gets a win even though Truex Jr. (the most popular pick) dominated the race and would have probably taken the checkered flag if it weren't for a loose wheel or lug nut issue or whatever the kids are calling it these days. Once again our most popular pick under performs... Truex gets Piston, Ideal, #Wifey, and Pursuit a DOOTW this week. Piston loses the lead and falls to 2nd. Ideal stays in 6th. #Wifey falls out of the Elite 8 to 9th, and Pursuit stays on the bottom of the leaderboard.
We have a tie for the TOP PICK this week between Kurt Busch (3rd) and Matt Kenseth (4th + Lap Led Bonus). Graziano's Kurt Busch pick gets him the Lead this week. Penguin's Kenseth pick jumps him up 2 spots to 4th. Dust also took Kenseth and climbs 3 spots to a tie for 7th and back in the Elite 8. Chonk (13th) and Kiss (14th) have a solid race and gain a few points on 8th. Nice Race Boys!
Skid (12th) and Empty (T9th) have top 10 picks and hold their spots this week. Beef has an EH... pick and stays in 11th.
Rusty and Shepard share the DOOTW this week with the Truex gang. Johnson 17th place finish definitely was a disappointment. But it could have been worse...
Rookie Wheels gets the BSOTW this week as she DQs on the Saturday night race no pick. More of a Start and Park Jumpsuit Pisser really... She falls 3 spots but remains in the Elite 8 in a tie for 7th... so not all is lost. She does burn a big Kyle Busch pick and gets 0 points to show for it. This may play a big part in her bid to take the title as a rookie this year.
OTHER RAMBLINGS:
Dover this week on Sunday. My Dog's Nanny loves Dover... she always tells me her Dover name is Ben Dover... silly girl. I have no idea what this means.
15 races to go before the Chase and that seems like a lifetime at this point, but we have 1/3 of the teams still with 0 wins. 2 of those teams sit outside the Elite 8. We are so bunched up though... there is no one that should be feeling too safe at the moment. Let's see how it will all play out.
Good luck this week Guys and Girl!
Cheers!
