MY CHASE LOOKS LIKE THIS

GREETINGS FROM SW OKLAHOMA:



A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO TSFAN AND I WERE TALKING ABOUT A DIFFERENT WAY TO RUN THE CHASE, AND I SUGGESTED RUNNING IT SORT OF LIKE A SINGLE EMLIMANATION TYPE THING, WHERE THE CHASE DRIVER WHO HAD THE WORST FINISH IN EACH OF THE CHASE RACES WOULD BE CUT FROM THE CHASE TILL THEY HAVE A WINNER.



THE WAY I SUGGESTED IT BE DONE IS LIKE THIS, FIRST THERE ARE NO POINTS INVOLVED AMOUNG THE CHASE DRIVERS, SINCE THERE ARE 12 DRIVERS AND 10 RACES, THE FIRST RACE HAS TO HAVE 2 DRIVERS CUT THEN FOR THE NEXT 9 THERE IS ONE CUT TILL THEY GET TO HOMESTEAD, THERE WOULD THEN BE 2 DRIVERS LEFT AND 2 SLOTS TO FILL FIRST AND SECOND.



JUST FOR GIGGLES I WENT BACK TO THE START OF THIS YEAR'S CHASE AND STARTED CUTTING DRIVERS, LISTED BELOW IS HOW THE CHASE CURRENTLY STANDS IN MY VERISION OF THE CHASE.

3.
4. JIMMIE JOHNSON
5. RYAN NEWMAN
6. KURT BUSCH 7. JUAN MONTOYA
8. GREG BIFFLE
9. BRIAN VICKERS
10. DENNY HAMLIN
11. CARL EDWARDS
12. KASEY KAHNE





THIS METHOD OF CROWNING THE NASCAR CHAMPION DOESN'T HAVE A SNOWBALL'S CHANCE IN HELL OF EVER HAPPENING, BUT IT HAS MADE THE CHASE A LITTLE MORE INTERESTING FOR ME, AND IT MIGHT JUST BE INTERESTING TO SEE OF ONE OF THE 3 GUYS THAT I HAVE LEFT, MARTIN, GORDON OR STEWART, END UP WINNING THE CHASE.



THAT'S MY OPINION - WHAT'S YOURS

    Oh to live in GUNNYVILLE...

    I am trying to "reframe" the way I think about JJ and rather than be annoyed by his dominance I am trying to see this as history in the making that I get to witness. Would be more convincing if it were Junior for some reason...I am still working on it!

    THANKS FOR THE VERY KIND WORDS AND I AM GOING TO GO OUT ON A LIMB AND SAY TONEY WILL WIN IN THE DESERT THIS WEEKEND, I WILL TELL YOU WHY AFTER THE RACE. AND BELIEVE ME IT IS A VERY GOOD REASON.

    KRIS,

    I THINK ALL OF US WHO ARE TRUE FANS OF THE SPORT NEED TO LOOK AT IT LIKE THAT, WE ARE SEEING SOMETHING UNFOLD THAT WE MAY NEVER SEE AGAIN, AND WE MIGHT BE SAYING THIS SAME THING NEXT YEAR, LORD I HOPE NOT.
