Let's start by talking about Kyle Busch. He's had an amazing season so far, winning 5 races, and leads in the point standings. However, when asked in a recent poll whether Kyle Busch would win the championship, the majority of people said, no. Now, why is this? He's so dominant, winning races left and right, why would people think that he will end up losing in the end? Is it, perhaps, because of his loose cannon style of driving? He has talent, that is hard to argue with, but his style of driving is highly agressive, and it's often checkers or wreckers. Nonetheless, (is that one word? oh well.) we will just have to see how the season plays out.
The next thing I want to put my two cents into is, the silly season madness. Let's try and break it down. Tony Stewart might be leaving GIbbs to go to Haas CNC, Casey Mears is almost definatly leaving Hendricks, leaving the driver seat open for Mark Martin, possibly sharing it with Brad Keselowski. I'm not so sure about Tony going to Haas. Why would he go from a top notch team, to a mid-pack team? Unless he's just tired of all the ego over at Gibbs. I know I would. Well, maybe i'm biased since i'm a Kyle Busch and Denny Hamlin hater. I'm not too surprised about Casey getting the boot. When you look at his performance compared to the others, it just doens't stack up. With three of the Hendrick drivers in the top ten in points, and Casey is 24th, something was bound to happen. It is rumored that Mark Martin wants to run a full scheldule next season, and make a run for the championship. When I told my friend, a Mark Martin fan, this, she said "I thought he was going to retire three years ago! When is he going to make up his mind!" Then I told her he hasn't won a championship yet, and wants to try to, and she said, "Aw, well, that changes things." I think he should go for it, i'd love to see him win it, but I don't think he can do that from a DEI car, and I think he realizes that.
I'd like to end this blog with my condolences to the family, friends, and fans of Scott Kalitta.
