I'll take the win, but hardly makes up for the egg that got laid last race.

I forgot to check my C drivers and got 2 that weren't entered

Surgery will make you do that.

And who has Truex Jr this week?

Lavabe · Post by **Lavabe** » September 13th, 2015, 5:38 am

Yeah, so I have a sleep disorder, and I fell asleep for a good three hour sleep during the middle of the race last night.

In any case, Kenseth won last night. He had a dominant car. At one point, Joe Gibbs Racing was running 1,2,3,4. Absolutely dominant.
The finish was:
Kenseth, Blech, Logano, AA, Jr, Hamlin, JG, Kes, JJ, Bowyer
11 Edwards
12 Larson
13 JMac (-1 lap)
14 Harvick (-1 lap)
15 KuBu (-1 lap)
19 Patrick (-3 laps)
25 Allgaier (-3 laps)
27 Dillon (-3 laps)
29 Smoke (-4 laps)
30 Cassill (-4 laps)
32 Truex (-6 laps)

Although I narrowly beat bjornolf for the win, bjornolf narrowly won the summer session,
Overall, bjornolf leads me by 306 points. I then lead Ymo by 34 points. IowaDevil is 410 points further behind. Lawgrad is some 135 points behind that.

Seems to me that bjornolf should win this easily. The only question is whether or not he is running out of picks on key drivers.
The Chase begins next week in Chicago!

Way to go Lavabe. Your third place trumped my second place, allowing you to beat me by 2 points. Congrats!

Slight correction... you scored more points in the race, but I won this week because of the qualifying bonuses. We both chose Allgaier and Larson. Your Blech beat my Logano, and your Edwards beat my Kurt Busch. Yet my Logano and Kes choices qualified first and third, so those points were enough to beat you by a couple of points.

The allotment situation becomes really interesting as we enter the Chase.
From what I see, here's where we stand:
bjornolf: No More selections: Kurt Busch, Edwards, Ragan; 1 more selection: Truex; 2 more selections: Harvick, Kahne, Bowyer
Lavabe: 0-1 More selections: No one; 2 more selections: Kurt Busch, Truex, Ragan
Ymo: No More selections: Kurt Busch, Truex; 1 more selection: Edwards, Kahne; 2 more selections: Harvick, Bowyer, Patrick, Ragan
IowaDevil & Lawgrad: NO allotment issues

The following have made the Chase: JJ, Blech, Kenseth, Logano, Harvick, Jr, KuBu, Edwards, Kes, Truex, Hamlin, JMac, JG, Newman, Menard, Bowyer.

Hoping Jimmy Johnson and Jr catch fire.

Jr did well last night, but JJ faded.
Team Gibbs dominated, and Team Penske was right up there too. Overall, Hendrick did well enough, but Kahne has been a disappointment. Stewart-Haas had an off night.

There is some advantage to ranking at the bottom of the totem pole! Watch out guys, here we come!

Son of Gun! I pick Harvick and he's going to finish next to last...

WTG LG! ;)

Congrats to LG!
And I only need another 5 or 6 weeks like this to catch bjornolf... not happening.

Carl Edwards and Kevin Harvick start on the front row in Loudon this weekend.

Lavabe · Post by **Lavabe** » September 27th, 2015, 3:15 pm

Racing in New Hampshire:
So far, it's been mostly Harvick:
Cautions:
Lap 37: AA hits the wall... he's out.
Lap 48: Cassill smoking as he loses his power steering; he's in the garage
Lap 80: Smoke: Left front tire down, but he doesn't hit the wall. He'll be repaired quickly.

Lap 90 of 300
Harvick, Kes, JJ, Jr, KuBu, Kenseth, Blech, Hamlin, Logano, Edwards
11 Truex
13 Larson
14 Allgaier
15 Patrick
18 JMac
23 Ragan
26 Dillon
42 AA (OUT)
