Hmmm....Tricky Dick was really expecting a better showing in Vegas....figured that track would be right in our wheelhouse. But we'll certainly take another top 10. One more tune-up before the main event starts!

Race #15 of 20 - Atlanta Results
It was a fitting end to the regular season as the driver who has dominated, won his 5th race. Trick Dickle held off challenges from Chris Snow and Cannon Pace to win yet again. Pace challenged for the win, which he needed to make the Chase, and came up just short. Helen Wheel, Kerri Kong, and Bo Duke had solid top ten finishes to solidify themselves in the Chase.

Great race for Dixieland taking 4th and 9th. Luke just fell too far behind to early to make a run at the Chase. The team will put all it's energy behind Bo now as the General Lee tries to make good ol' boys everywhere proud!

Snow Motorsports is a hotbed of statistical anamolies.
2 Drivers 2 cars identical stats across the board. 1 car makes teh chase, the other falls short in 14th place. Lets go SNOW! |

First DNF of the year is not the way to lead into the Chase...but hopefully I got it out of my system now.

Helen comes into the Chase as 1 of 2 drivers without a DNF, having run the most laps of any driver this season. Will consistency be a winning strategy in a 5-race Chase?

Very nice...not only does Tricky Dickle solidify his points lead heading into the chase, but now Big Mo is on his side as well. Still, all it takes is one bad outing for that lead to evaporate. Stay focused, boys!

Race #16 of 20 - Coke Zero 400 Results
A couple of early wrecks drastically changed the landscape of this race. (Hopefully I can get the video to work for those). Chase contenders Nick Phillips and Deacon Palmer were knocked out of the race in those wrecks and other contenders such as Trick Dickle and Bo Duke were left with badly damaged cars. The few who survived the wrecks unscathed were able to pull away from the pack and dominate the last half of the race. In the end it was a two car breakaway with non-Chase driver Kyle Kappe holding off Travis Elkin for the win. Elkin was the highest finishing Chase driver in 2nd while Helen Wheels was 5th, Andrew Foley 6th, Mustafa Henderson 7th, Dexter Jackson 8th and Ace Idol 10th.

So close to most laps led and 5 extra points for Helen. No complaints, though.

Race #17 of 20 - Pocono Results
For most of the day it was a two car battle between Nick Phillips and Chris Snow. After a caution Snow and Phillips got onto a different pit schedule. Ten other drivers were on the different pit schedule with Snow and after Phillips and the rest of the field had to pit Snow and the other ten drivers were able to stay out and stretch out the fuel mileage. Snow had no challenges as he took the win. 2nd through 7th were other drivers who stayed out, Phillips was the first who made the final pit stop in the final order. 9th through 12th stayed out and Trick Dickle in 13th was the 2nd car in the order who made the last stop.

A 16th-place finish is not what the doctor ordered considering Helen qualified 8th, but it seems that she was in the unlucky pit group. She's also only 7 places or so behind the Chase lead -- not too shabby.

Damn one of the worst races of the year. Not a fan of the DNF.

Race #18 of 20 - Bristol Results
Bo Duke did everything he could today to keep himself in the running for the title. He led the majority of the final half of the race and took the easy victory while most of the rest of the Chase field faltered. Deacon Palmer in 4th and Nick Phillips in 10th were the only other Chase drivers in the top ten. Ace Idol, Andrew Foley, Dexter Jackson, Mustafa Henderson, Trick Dickle, Chris Snow and Travis Elkin all failed to finish.

Ace Idol takes the lead with only 2 races remaining but holds a very small lead over the rest of the field. It's still anyone's championship to win.
