Who will challenge Johnson in 2010?

[foehammer111]

I think it's safe to say that Johnson will be a contending for a 5th title in 2010, but who do you think has a chance to stop him?

I think Kyle Busch has the best chance to end Johnson's dominance. If he can control his self-destructive nature, and race the second half of the season like he does the first half I think it's his title to lose.

Mark Martin is another good choice. This was his first year with a new team. Hopefully they can work out some of the rough spots, and finish strong when they need to. That will get The Kid his first title.

Martin, Kyle (hopefully), Stewart and Hamlin. Hamlin was real strong near the end of the chase.

I also hope Roush can get back on track in 2010. Wasn't the same seeing those guys do so bad.

The way things are looking, you may need to change the title to Who is going to finish second to Johnson.

But seriously, Mark Martin after having one year under a Hendrick rocket would be my choice. The man knows how to race and win, and he definitely has the equipment.

Shrub should take the off season and reflect on the good and the bad. He now has a title( a Nationwide title, not Royal Pompus Jerk of the year). Get his head together, you probably have the next best car and team compared to Hendrick, make the most of that and quit the blame game and win the Cup.

Dark horse, Kurt Busch. He is finally showing some promise in the Blue Deuce, winning races and finishing 4th to Rick Hendrick in the Chase. As long as Sideways Sam and Kez don't distract him from the prize.

I am going to say Ryan Newman or Carl Edwards.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Nobody.

Jimmie and Chad are that good when it matters (the Chase) and they'll probably win 3 or 4 more championships.

Man thats a good question ! Spike I like your choice on Edwards. For the Missouri Boyz he is our only hope. McMurray moving to DEI under Bass Pro might put some pressure under Jamie's collar. maybe....

Talk is pretty hopeful around the Joplin area, But we still pull for the 48...

Man I never would have thought that the kid that plowed the wall at Watkins Glen in the 92 would win 4 in a row.

You know, these deck lids on the championship diecast are getting pretty full. You think they could get 5 on there?

I think Denny Hamlin will have a good shot at him.
