Here are these weeks’ Hot & Cold results after Pocono…
Biggest Jump Up = +10 #88 Dale Jarrett
Biggest Fall Down = -11 #24 Jeff Gordon
1. (8) #99 Jeff Burton---AVG. 5.75
I would only like to see one other person here, and that would be Ward! The #99 team is on fire with finishes of 2nd, 6th, 9th, and 6th!!
2. (2) #12 Ryan Newman---AVG. 7
Ryan managed to pick up another win, but still stays in the 2nd position.
3. (3) #17 Matt Kenseth---AVG. 8.5
This is the 3rd week in a row that Matt has been 3rd in my Hot & Cold. I wonder if he plans on staying here the rest of the year.
4. (4) #48 Jimmie Johnson---AVG. 9.25
The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th positions are all the same this week. Everyone must have finished where they normally do.
5. (1) #29 Kevin Harvick---AVG. 10
Kevin is no longer the leader, but he is still 5th. Harvick has improved much from last year!
6. (14) #5 Terry Labonte---AVG. 11
My prediction is right, and he almost even made the top 5. I look for Terry to maybe be a championship contender once again next season.
7. (9) #15 Michael Waltrip---AVG. 12
Mikey gained 2 spots this week after losing 7. Waltrip and Jr. always seem to do well on the same race-day.
8. (11) #8 Dale Earnhardt Jr. ---AVG. 13.5
Junior did make it back to the top 10. Good race at Pocono by the #8 Budweiser Chevy. If he can do that the rest of the year, we might have a new leader.
9. (16) #16 Greg Biffle---AVG. 14.5
Biffle really moved up this week…I think 97forever, did something to improve his driver’s finishes!!!
10. (5) #21 Ricky Rudd---AVG. 16.75
Rudd didn’t have such a good 700th career start finishing 39th. At least the car looked good!!
11. (NR) #88 Dale Jarrett---AVG. 17
This is the highest I have seen an NR, non-rated, driver shoot up the ladder! Dale finished 21st at Pocono too!
12. (7) #31 Robby Gordon---AVG. 17.5
Robby Gordon falls out of the top 10, but I predict he jumps back up there after Indy.
13. (20) #7 Jimmy Spencer---AVG. 18
Jimmy jumped the ladder as well, that team is getting better.
14. (NR) #154 Todd Bodine---AVG. 18.25
If Todd Bodine doesn’t wreck his car or someone else, and damage his car, he usually has a good day.
15. (18) #38 Elliott Sadler---AVG. 18.5
Sadler started well in the race (3rd) and ended up 14th. Not too bad for the #38 M&M’s Ford.
16. (11) #9 Bill Elliott---AVG. 18.75
Elliott fell back this week but finished 17th. I predict he falls way down next week.
17. (6) #24 Jeff Gordon---AVG. 19.5
Never thought I would see Jeff so low. 3 competitors who should be higher are low this week.
18. (9) #20 Tony Stewart---AVG. 20.5
Never thought I would see Tony so low. Tony’s engine problems didn’t help anything, and he moves back 9 spots this week.
19. (14) #18 Bobby Labonte---AVG. 21.25
Never thought I would see Bobby so low. Bobby Labonte, the other Gibbs driver also had problems and had a horrible day.
20. (19) #2 Rusty Wallace---AVG. 22
Rusty’s average is 22, and there are 22 drivers who made it this week, because Dave Blaney and Kurt Busch have tied with Rusty.
20. (NR) #77 Dave Blaney---AVG. 22
Blaney needed a good top 10 finish, and he got one.
20. (NR) #97 Kurt Busch---AVG. 22
97 should be pretty happy about this. Kurt finished 2nd and still barely made it. I predict he moves up next week.
