Week 7 Commentary

A trip out to Phoenix for the Subway Fit Fresh 600 on Saturday night presented a great opportunity for several of the Conway Racers, and Ryan Newman, but others had a miserable evening.

For the race, our top five include Team Hot Stuff, Two or Five Race, Ricky Race, AFC Patriots and Blind Squirrel Racing. In the garage area were Shake & Bake*, WTF Racing, Man in Black Racing, Team Cuda and Danielle Hall.

The boxes did a number on our standings as racers get some familiarity with the new groupings. We had a large amount of racers gain over ten spots, and they include Team Hot Stuff, AFC Racing, Two or Five, Mama's Boy, Ricky Racer, Blind Squirrel, Burke, Glynn^ Ratatack, Fitz Racing, Capt Schwab, Punch and WTC Racing. Among those tumbling in points faster than Charlie Crist's poll numbers were Slow Motion Racing, Flat Tires Racing, Bloodor Tears, RP5, MT Pockets, Team Cuda, L&M Racing, Fullers Fast Track and Big Time Racers.

Moneyshot Racing is in the lead, followed by Wiseguys Racing, Team Hot Stuff, Team Taser, who has quietly re-entered the top five and DFL Racing.

This week we head out to Texas for the Samsung Mobile 500, a very fast track which usually has limited close racing. The green flag drops at 3:16PM on Sunday.

Now that Kasey Kahne is moving over to Hendrick, will he be a good pick going forward or a lame duck?

Good Luck
