What Lincoln is Thinkin’ - Driver Terrific 13
Driver Terrific 13 - After Bristol1. Kyle Busch Last Week: (1) Rowdy keeps his number one ranking despite his worst race of the year in Bristol.
2. Kevin Harvick (2) My pick to win the race in Bristol, came in second, and finished in the top 10 for the fourth time in five races.
3. Greg Biffle (6) I'm done underestimating Biffle - and I'm finally going to give him his due after his third top 5 and fourth top 10 of the year.
4. Jeff Burton (8) After 28 winless tries at Bristol, Burton gets his first win... even if it was gift-wrapped by Denny Hamlin.
5. Dale Earnhardt Jr. (5) Junior slipped into the 5th spot at the end of the race, and continues to crush his Hendrick teammates.
6. Tony Stewart (7) Stewart led the most amount of laps but lost in Bristol. He's had the same problem in Daytona. For some reason, Smoke has trouble sealing the deal.
7. Carl Edwards (3) A non-factor in Bristol, it seems the "Oil Cap" controversy has taken away all the momentum from his two early wins.
8. Kasey Kahne (9) Kahne blew the win in the Nationwide race, but grabbed another top 10 on Sunday.
9. Ryan Newman (4) Three straight races without a top 10 for the Daytona 500.
10. Matt Kenseth (10) Kenseth finished 10th - never a contender on Sunday, but he'll take it.
11. Clint Bowyer (NR) After a slow start, Bowyer had a great weekend with a win on Saturday and a top 3 on Sunday.
12. Jimmie Johnson (11) A contender for awhile on Sunday until getting spun out late.
13. Jeff Gordon (12) At this point last year, Hendrick Motorsports had three victories. After Sunday, they're 0 for 5.
Fell Out: Kurt Busch
Just Missed: Busch, Denny Hamlin
What do you think about my rankings?
