It is funny that the press (and some bloggers) thought Kyle Busch was in a slump because he hadn't won in what 2 weeks!
But there are a number of drivers who haven't won in quite a while.
If someone said at the beginning of the year that Matt Kenseth, Jeff Gordan, Tony Stewart, and Kevin Harvick would be winless at this point in the chase we would have thought they were crazy. 3 former champions winless after 23 races, what the @#%& is going on?
So who is going to win first and get off this list?

Count includes all points races run since their last win.
Given what has happened to some other drivers who have changed teams (unwisely?) and have not had a win since I hope Tony will win this year. He has been in contention for a win a few times and he has finished in the top 5 numerous and if it wasn't for bad luck he would have been in the winners circle already.
I don't see any of the bottom 5 winning anytime soon.
So let us all know what you think, who will win this year and who is destined to be a field filler and also ran.
I am a male who is a life long Ohio State football fan. (GO BUCKS) and a NASCAR fan. I like the Cleveland Browns so I know the agony of defeat but they are still my boys. A huge JGR fan going back to Bobby Labonte - 18 Interstate Batteries, Tony Stewart - 20 Home Depot, Denny Hamlin - 11 FedEx and now Kyle Bush - 18 M&Ms.
