Robosaurus Eats Tires?
Making the Grade-Lowes 2
By Dennis Michelsen (RaceTalkRadio.com)
Racing at Lowes Motor Speedway is more than just about racing! Humpy Wheeler believes in having a carnival atmosphere with sideshow acts and all kinds of crazy stunts. Oh yes there is real racing too and the track is getting back to featuring better racing again. Now can Goodyear come up with a decent tire?

Nextel Cup-Lowes 2

1. Jeff Gordon
2. Clint Bowyer
3. Kyle Busch
4. Jeff Burton
5. Carl Edwards
6. Dave Blaney
7. Tony Stewart
8. Kasey Kahne
9. David Stremme
10. Michael Waltrip

F for Matt Kenseth
If it weren't for bad luck this team would have no luck at all! Earlier in the season this team would start out horrible but figure out a way to pick up a top ten. Now they are starting better but having horrible endings!

D for Goodyear Tires
Is it so tough coming up for tires for cars you know at tracks you know? The lack of consistency from Goodyear has me very worried about switching to the Car of Tomorrow next season. At some tracks such as Lowes it could be a nightmare!

C for Ryan Newman
Once again this team looked like they were on the way to a great finish. But once again they snatched defeat from the jaws of victory and showed why they failed to make the Chase for the Championship again!

B for Clint Bowyer
How long will this guy be able to sneak up on the competition? Clint will never have the fans or media behind him in huge numbers but he could care less! All this guy wants to do is race and he is turning into one of the most consistent drivers in Nextel Cup.

A for Jeff Gordon
How will NASCAR change the Chase for the Championship rules next season? Apparently Jeff did not get the memo that Brian France wanted this championship to go down to the last lap! The Dupont team stunk up the regular season and now they are doing the same thing to the Chase for the Championship too!
