Was there any doubt?  I mean seriously, did anyone really think that Jimmie Johnson wasn’t going to win his third straight NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship?  I think there was more doubt of the Detroit Lions actually winning a game than Johnson blowing his 141-point lead.

Clint Bowyer isn’t an electrifying driver. He doesn’t drive aggressively, rather he is more steady and calm on the track.

While the rest of the field continues to […]

Cousin Carl has shown some incredible moxie over the past two races. The win at Atlanta was all but expected, having notched three wins and seven top-10’s in nine career starts at the track.
