Hola Amigos! Well Martinsville was good for the top teams and no so good for the bottom teams, and the bottom teams really needed to shake things up a little as we head into the final Fluffer Round race in Texas.
RACE RECAP:
Rusty (2nd) took Hamlin who tangled with the race winner Johnson for the entire race but came home with a solid 3rd place finish. Chonk (1st) and Beef (3rd) took Martinsville stud Gordon who brought it home in 6th. So the top 3 had a great day in Martinsville. Shepard (4th) and Ideal (5th) gambled on Stewart who never really showed up in Martinsville and finished 26th.
CHASE UPDATE:
As you all know, our Fluffer Round consists of just 2 races and points accumulate through the 1st 8 races. This puts Shepard and Ideal in a tough position as they now trail 3rd place by 28 and 62 points respectively. So Shepard could qualify on Points but Ideal needs to win in Texas.
Chonk, Rusty and Beef are in a great position to move on and Chonk and Rusty are pretty much locked in on points. BUT .... A win by Shepard and/or Ideal could completely turn this Chase on its' head. That sounds simple* but everyone is limited on the drivers they can choose at this point. Have Shepard or Ideal saved that perfect driver for Texas? It will be tough and take some luck for those guys to move on, but stranger things have happened for sure...
