Alright, let's face facts, it would not have been fun to be Kurt Busch at New Hampshire International Speedway.
Sure, the driver of the No. 2 Dodge was one of the hottest drivers going into the Chase, but now all that matters is how you perform in the 10 Chase races - and Kurt did not do well last weekend. As a result, he fell to 12th in this week's Power Rankings.
Is he out of championship contention? Jimmie Johnson finished 39th last year at Loudon and went on to win the championship - so Busch can obviously fight back. However, he cannot falter anymore, especially not this weekend at Dover.
What do you think? Can Kurt Busch fight back from his dissapointing NHIS performance to put himself back in championship contention? Who will win this year's championship?
Let us know your thoughts.
