TNQC - Kansas and Talladega
Oct 10, 2007 | 10:39PM | report this

Well I have finally managed to become a true stats person...and have deleted my points system file by mistake *rolls eyes*

So...uh, I'll just put up the points for the last two weekends at once and only for the Chase as I will need to do another file up for the full points...got to love modern technology sometimes

Tez's NASCAR Qualifying Championship - Chase for the Plate after Qualifying 4

1 - Jimmie Johnson, 37 points
2 - Ryan Newman, 28 points
3 - Jeff Gordon, 21 points
4 - Denny Hamlin, 20 points
5 - Kurt Busch, 19 points
6 - Elliot Sadler, 18 points
7 - Kasey Kahne, 17 points
8 - Juan Montoya, 11 points
9 - Dale Earnhardt Jr, 9 points
10 - Carl Edwards, 7 points
11 - Kyle Busch, 6 points
12 - Jamie McMurray, 2 points

Well, well, not very surprising that Jimmie's taken a stranglehold on this thing as he's managed to nab two poles during the Chase races which has given him two extra points. His closest challenge is Ryan Newman who is proving once again that he can be the 'rocket man' when his car is hooked up. Kasey Kahne benefitted greatly from Talladega where he was the fastest Chaser...as did his teammate Elliot Sadler who started right behind him.

Looks like a battle between Jimmie and Ryan right now...should be a cracker.

It's a bit early to celebrate, Jimmie...still have 6 sessions to go, mate.

lol, no Mikey just missed out on getting into the Chase :P

yeah, Kansas was rather strange....part of me wished it didn't restart since I could then just give half points as it didn't get to 75% but, alas, it just squeezed over that point so the top 8 get full points.

Next season will be better I think as I think I'll change points systems; the V8 one for the regular season and the old Champ Car one for the Chase.

So only the chases drivers can score on this system?? No wait, Some non chase drivers are in there. Ok where is Tony? He got docked for punching a TV reporter. Thats why he is not in there.

*####s head* no, no, no, photo....I did qualifying seperately and after 26 rounds, these were the top 12 drivers in points for qualifying....Tony was 14th or something so he missed out.

and don't worry, I never understand what I'm thinking either, LOL!

Well that is a fine predicament. No wonder the GGW drivers never get in there.

ABOUT ME


Tezgm99
Tez is a rare creature; an Australian who was living in New Zealand before moving to Canada. He's also a Civil Engineer who is hoping to spend his Monday to Friday sitting in front of a computer surfing the inter...uh, working hard for an Engineering Consultant or Contractor when he finds a job. His heart is torn between his two loves; F1 and NASCAR. Due to his high interest in those, his blogs will likely focus on them with the occasional foray into sports that don't get much (if any) mention on this website. All blogs and/or comments will more than likely have his usual dollop of sarcasm and general Aussie spin on them. Amazingly, he also managed to score 2 MiB nominations on consecutive days (August 5 & 6, 2007) after announcing he had been keeping track of them...he's considering hiding under his bed as a result.
