(If you notice some of the averages are a lot closer than last weeks!)
Here are these weeks’ results after Lowe’s Motor Speedway…
1. (4) #18 Bobby Labonte---AVG. 2
The #18 Interstate Batteries Chevy is no doubt the hottest team in the Winston Cup Series with finishes of 1, 2, 2, and 3!!!!
2. (11) #2 Rusty Wallace---AVG. 8.25
This one again has surprised me even though Rusty has snuck into the top 10 in points.
3. (3) #40 Sterling Marlin---AVG. 9.25
Sterling is still here, his last 4 finishes have been 7, 10, 13, and 7th!
3. (4) #24 Jeff Gordon---AVG.9.25
Jeff has tied with Bobby…last week and again this week, but only with Sterling…he seems as If he is ready for another championship again!
5. (2) #17 Matt Kenseth---AVG. 10
Well Matt again has held off Dale Jr., and even further improved his position against him.
6. (12) #48 Jimmie Johnson---AVG. 11.25
Jimmie really dominated Lowe’s speedway, he has really picked up since the slump he was getting ready to start…
7. (15) #15 Michael Waltrip---AVG. 12
Michael is now used to having good finishes when the race gets rained out…Daytona…Lowe’s…???
8. (16) #99 Jeff Burton---AVG. 12.5
Man I can’t say enough of how this team has really improved…their finishes changed…like that!!
9. (10) #97 Kurt Busch---AVG. 13
Kurt is coming back up towards the points lead If he keeps this up!
10. (1) #8 Dale Earnhardt Jr.---AVG. 13.25
He sure fell back, I bet they wished that Lowe’s didn’t even count after their mechanical problems!
11. (18) #25 Joe Nemechek---AVG. 14.75
Front Row Joe is currently 11th in points…after he had another productive finish!
12. (7) #9 Bill Elliott---AVG. 15.75
Awesome Bill had a bad day and lost 4 spots in the points standings, moving him back down to 23.
13. (9) #29 Kevin Harvick---AVG. 16
The 29 car stayed the same in the points but he lost 4 spots in my Hot & Cold Series this weekend!
14. (14) #22 Ward Burton---AVG. 16.75
When I saw where Ward finished I figured he would move up a few, but with the competition these days, It’s hard to do that!
15. (6) #6 Mark Martin---AVG. 17
Mark is here in a 3 way tie between Greg Biffle, and Terry Labonte as well.
15. (19) #16 Greg Biffle---AVG. 17
Greg is 22nd the points even though he missed a race earlier this year and still leading the rookie of the year points…he isn’t doing to bad out there!
15. (8) #5 Terry Labonte---AVG. 17
Terry may have fallen down in my standings but, he is still consistent and maybe has a chance at the top 5 in points, but he will need to win a race this year to get boosted up!
18. (13) #31 Robby Gordon---AVG. 17.25
Doing the double would be very hard to do, but Robby did It again, and none the less he finished 17th in the Cup race…now its time to take a nap!
19. (23) #77 Dave Blaney---AVG. 19
Like I posted about Dave in the last Hot & Cold the team did improve and had a good day again…
20. (24) #42 Jamie McMurray---AVG. 23
Jamie just hasn’t been as good as he was at the beginning of the year, but he seems to be coming back…
21. (26) #49 Ken Schrader---AVG. 23
The 49 driver, Ken Schrader’s last 4 finishes have been 10, 30, 24, and 28.
22. (NR) #7 Jimmy Spencer---AVG. 24.5
Jimmy moved on up in here after a top 5 at Lowe’s.
23. (17) #38 Elliott Sadler---AVG. 25.25
Man Elliott was on a hot streak but the last 2 races, he really has been off getting in accidents not his fault.
24. (29) #21 Ricky Rudd---AVG. 25.5
After spinning out into the grass at Lowe’s, he ruined a lot of drivers chances at winning, but he just has not done too well with the 21!
24. (28) #88 Dale Jarrett---AVG. 25.5
Like I have mentioned before Dale should be up in the top 10 in the points, but he is slowly, ok, very slowly making a recovery.
26. (20) #23 Kenny Wallace---AVG. 25.75
Kenny has squelched his chances at a top 10 finish in the standings at the end of the year, unless he wins the next 20 races!
27. (NR) #10 Johnny Benson---AVG. 26.5
He made the list! You really have to be on this list if you want to have any chance at a championship really. Johnny will still win at least 1 this year, still…
28. (21) #43 John Andretti---AVG. 26.75
Andretti tied with Todd Bodine after losing 7 positions in my Hot & Cold Series.
28. (30) #54 Todd Bodine---AVG. 26.75
Todd moved up 1 position…woo…he needs to do something different to the National Guard car!
30. (NR) #4 Mike Skinner---AVG. 27.5
Skinner made the list barely! It was between him and Jeff Green!
