Jason
Leffler Wins the Diamond Plywood 200
Bye Bye Busch Whackers-Darlington
By Dennis Michelsen
They came, they raced, and again the Busch Whackers conquered
the Diamond Plywood 200 at Darlington Raceway. Once again
despite the Car of Tomorrow being on the slate for the
Nextel Cup race, twenty-three Cup drivers took to the
track in the Busch race too. When over half the racers
are Cup guys how the heck can the Busch guys compete?
It might take the biggest lucky break in the history of
the series to get a Busch guy in Victory Lane this season!
At the stand-alone events you can give the win to Carl
Edwards with any one of ten drivers having the best shot
at companion events. Best among the Busch guys this week
was Jason Leffler in sixth place. NASCAR needs to make
rule changes to even the playing field in the Busch series
before it is too late. But in the meantime the real winner
will be recognized every week on Bye Bye Busch Whackers.
Jason Leffler is this week's win in the Diamond Plywood
200, his third win of the season.
