Well, after seeing last nights Cup Series Results; First question: Your “reaction” To last nights “Coca Cola 600” at Charlotte Motor Speedway last night?? Last nights winner was: Ross Chastain driving the number 1 Car!!!

And second question: As far as my favorite car goes, the #21 Car is concerned; Where you do you think that puts that team in the future?? My Driver, Josh Berry came in 12th last night, so that puts him at #7 in the official NASCAR playoff standings!!! What do you think he would need to do in order to possibly win a “Drivers Cup” for the #21 Team in your opinion?!!!!!

He has already made the jackpot round with the win and you are in so the pressure to make the playoffs is gone and that is where the big money is in making that. Try to win more races and finish high if you don't.

I have a number of drivers I like to pull for, some more than others. Just one driver doesn't do it for me, to each his own. The 600 was a hell of a race as far as races goes. Not a huge fan of Berry, he popped off saying the C.A.R.S. series was better than ARCA, I thought that was pretty ignorant, but seeing as though Jr gave him his start in Xfinity and was announcing the race he was in I can see why he said it.

My reaction to the race was positive.

As far as Berry goes he was fast as a fill in driver at Hendrick & has shown speed for Penske. He’s done what needs to be done by winning a race so he’s made the playoffs.

I don’t follow Berry but I see he’s 16th place in the driver standings 20 points ahead of 20th. IDK if he’s had bad luck this year but something has kept him there.
 
Berry has been amazing for the Wood Brothers this year. He won that race early in the season and has shown that the win wasn't a fluke. Berry is consistently running inside the top 10.

He's the best driver they've had since Ryan Blaney. He showed flashes last year, but this year he has taken a major step forward in terms of performance. All the former SHR drivers are all doing well for their new teams.

I always thought highly of Josh Berry. If SHR hadn't shut down, I'm pretty sure he'd be doing great things in the #4.
 
I think he's definitely proven how unfit Harrison Burton was for that ride. He's been incredibly fast, qualifying better than 16th and finishing better than 21st. Those aren't "playoff" numbers (without a win, which he has), but it's better than a lot of drivers in supposedly better equipment. And I wouldn't say he's been lucky in terms of avoiding accidents, either.

Some bad luck and some mistakes. He's had speed almost every week.

I can tell you are high on the guy, but as the stats say, Berry has an average start of 15th and an average finish of 20th. If nothing else the one win will get him a ticket into the first round of the playoffs, that's a certainty. He's so much better than young Harry was.

100% this.

The 21 is a full blown Penske operation. Some people were questioning the "Wood Brothers" equipment, not realizing Harrison Burton was the worst driver in Cup. Now they have a good driver, providing good results. Nobody should be surprised
 
The one thing that Burton did do was win at Daytona. That jacked up owners points, and sources say that was good for 3 million dollars so it was a big shot in the arm for the Wood Brothers organization. I think it has helped car speed wise. They don't get everything free from Penske.
 
I’m very happy for the team’s success…have always been a fan of the 21 car since pulling for Pearson in that Purolator Mercury many years ago. Wood Brothers are a class act. Berry is certainly helping as the 21’s driver, giving them more consistency this year.
 
Josh Berry is obviously a good driver. Better than Harrison Burton. My only caveat is that the 21 team isn’t the same as last year. Miles Stanley has that baby humming. WBR hasn’t had that kinda speed off the truck since Blaney was there.

Meanwhile Jeremy Bullins (Burton CC) is over at RFK guiding Brad Keselowski to his worst season of his career.
 
Josh Berry has proven to be a huge upgrade over Harrison Burton. He's the best driver in that car since Ryan Blaney.
