As the 2005 season comes to a close we come to realize that the Chase for the Cup could go to anyone. One of any of the top 5 drivers could be on top after this weekend at Atlanta. Any driver can earn up to 150 points per race. And Carl Edwards is sitting just -149 points behind the current leader Tony Stewart.
Top 5 In Points After Martinsville
1. Tony Stewart Leader
2. Jimmie Johnson - 15
3. Ryan Newman - 63
4. Greg Biffle - 83
5. Carl Edwards - 149
With only four tracks remaining. Atlanta, Texas, Phoenix and Homestead- Miami. Three out of those Four tracks have been raced on earlier this season. All four tracks though have been won by a chase contender...including Homestead-Miami in 2004.
Atlanta - Carl Edwards
Texas - Greg Biffle
Phoenix - Kurt Busch
Homestead-Miami (2004)- Greg Biffle.
There is a very likely chance that these guys could have repeat wins and put them very close to contention. Im my opinion I think it will be Jimmie Johnson who will take it all home. But who do you think will win the championship?
The "Biff" 😀
Good call Acronym, Biff has a chance but I will pick one of the most likely.
My pick is Jimmy Johnson, Gordon's "B" buddy.
Glad to see you back on the board again. Hope all is well with you.

Well my guy Carl Edwards has a slight chance, but my wife has stuck with Tony Stewart the entire year, I think her chances are better than mine 😕
For next year I'm on record for Mark Martin, Carl Edwards and whoever is in the #21 car 😉
Well I think it will be Jimmie Johnson, unless Carl Edwards takes a big jump.
Next year I believe Jon Wood will be in the 21 car.
