Carl Edwards may not catch up to Jimmie Johnson in the standings, but he bested him for the win Sunday at Atlanta.
Carl Edwards won at Atlanta. But Lee Spencer says it was Jimmie Johnson’s runner-up showing that has everybody buzzing.
While it didn’t do him any good in the standings, Kyle Busch had another strong run Sunday at Atlanta Motor Speedway and hopes that he might be able to salvage a win before the year is done.
Busch, the Sprint Cup points leader going into the 10-race playoff, dropped from contention when his season went south at the worst possible time. He started the Chase with finishes of 34th, 43rd and 28th, dropping him to last among the 12 drivers who qualified.
At least the No.
Don’t be surprised if you find Mark Martin in the No. 5 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet and Casey Mears in a Richard Childress Racing Chevy for the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Both drivers may try to get a head start with their new teams for 2009.
