I have lowered the entrance number down to 25 instead of 30.
Here are this weeks results after Pocono…
Biggest Jump Up = +20 #12 Ryan Newman
Biggest Fall Down = -11 #9 Bill Elliott
1. (5) #17 Matt Kenseth---AVG. 4.75
Once again Matt has held off Dale Jr., and for the first time I believe led my Hot & Cold series!
2. (1) #18 Bobby Labonte---AVG. 6.25
He didn’t have as good of finishes as before, but he is still 2nd in this weeks Hot & Cold!
3. (3) #24 Jeff Gordon---AVG. 10
Jeff went from 4th, to 3rd, to 3rd again…now lets see If next week he gets even higher!
4. (2) #2 Rusty Wallace---AVG. 11
Rusty really is trying to get back in the game and try for the championship…If he could just get a win…
5. (NR) #12 Ryan Newman---AVG. 12.5
Boy oh boy did Newman jump up the ladder fast!! They have got their stuff together again! Watch out!
6. (7) #15 Michael Waltrip---AVG. 13
The NAPA car really is doing great this year…I never would have imagined that Waltrip would be 6th in points this early!
7. (15) #6 Mark Martin---AVG. 13.5
Mark needed that 2nd place finish very badly…now it might be smart to stick with whatever they did at Pocono for the rest of the year!!
8. (8) #99 Jeff Burton---AVG. 13.75
Jeff Burton and the Citgo team has maintained their position this week, and continues to do well.
9. (18) #31 Robby Gordon---AVG. 14.5
Robby moved up 9 positions this week, too bad the Winston Cup guys couldn’t do this in the points standings…I am sure It would make things more interesting towards the end of the year!
10. (10) #8 Dale Earnhardt Jr.---AVG. 14.75
The #8 team tied with Texas Terry this week…Dale is more focused now than he ever has…which is good!
10. (15) #5 Terry Labonte---AVG. 14.75
Terry has really turned his career around this year! He might have gotten the boot in a few years…or this one…but now after these consecutive finishes…he might not be done for!!
12. (3) #40 Sterling Marlin---AVG. 15.25
The Coors Light car moved down a ways after the bad finish at Dover.
13. (14) #22 Ward Burton---AVG. 16.5
Ward has just one finish out of the top 25 in the last eight races. That finish was not his fault…I think Ward is maybe…hopefully…back to his old self!
14. (27) #10 Johnny Benson---AVG. 16.75
He really has improved from the slump he had going…after all…he wasn’t in the top 30, 3 weeks ago.
15. (28) #54 Todd Bodine---AVG. 17
Todd moved up to 15th after barely sneaking in the past few weeks.
16. (6) #48 Jimmie Johnson---AVG. 17.5
Jimmie fell down 10 spots since the last Hot & Cold…which was after “LOWES”.
17. (13) #29 Kevin Harvick---AVG. 17.75
Harvick is doing well and sticking in the top 10, maybe a contender by the end of the year.
18. (9) #97 Kurt Busch---AVG. 18.5
Busch has slowly fallen down since the beginning of the year, although he is still in the top 5 of points.
18. (11) #25 Joe Nemechek---AVG. 18.5
Nemechek did get a win this year, and raced at the Winston, but none of that really matters unless you do better than what he is doing right now.
20. (19) #77 Dave Blaney---AVG. 19.5
Dave really is a good driver and has proved that many times this season…
21. (15) #16 Greg Biffle---AVG. 20.5
Biffle Is the highest rookie, but 21st? Man you would figure one of the rookies would do better than this.
22. (NR) #20 Tony Stewart---AVG. 21.5
The 2002 champion finally made the list!! He is still far down here, but I predict he moves in the top 15 next week atleast.
23. (12) #9 Bill Elliott---AVG. 21.75
Bill moved down 11 spots, but moved up 1 spot in the points.
24. (20) #42 Jamie McMurray---AVG. 23.25
Jamie still has many races to take the lead at the rookie of the year position.
25. (NR) #32 Ricky Craven---AVG. 23.5
Now that I lowered it, Craven barely made it!!
