NASCAR Nation, Kyle Busch has 7 wins but do you think JJ (#48) has the advantage being back to back champ??

May be...

  • I'm not a huge JJ fan, but if there was one thing I've come to know about him is; never count him out. That team tends to rally when it matters most.
  • I'm not a fan of either JJ or Busch. If I had to place a bet, I'd probably just flip a coin considering its a 10 race shootout. The guy with the most bad luck will probably be the one left out. I'm hoping someone else comes out of nowhere and wins the thing, but not likely.
  • i really think at this point in time, when it comes to the top 5, it's anybody's game. however, i think kyle and jimmie have the best chance of winning the championship. i guess we'll know for sure after homestead.
  • johnson is a chase expert and is probably the best driver when it comes to The Chase. Congrats to rowdy fans if kyle hangs on to win the season but get ready to complain and whine about how the Chase works after homestead when one of the hendrick chevies steals the championship from Mr. 18!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...
  • No...Johnson CHEATED his way to both championships! In my eyes all Johnson has is back to back to back to back cheating violations!


    You can give me thumbs down, but THE TRUTH IS THE TRUTH!
  • After points reset and yes Kyle will have a slight advantage, but I am like you..believe that Johnson or Gordon can and will pull it off!
  • It's going to come down to those two...Jimmie and Kyle. My money is on Kyle. Jimmie sure will give him a run. As for an advantage...well he's been there but I don't know what the advatage is. There are other drivers out there that have also won championships back to back or no.
  • Jimmie is without a doubt one of Kyle's biggest threats.

    It's going to get interesting, can't wait to see what happens.
  • I'd be almost willing to bet Jimmie will be 2nd in the points by the time Richmond is over. We've seen it before, when that team gets on a roll, they get on a serious roll. 4 of the last 6 races in the Chase last year, they dominated. It's a long way from being over, and any Shurb fan counting on a Cup already has another thing coming to them.

    I'm not saying Jr will beat him, but as long as someone does is all that matters to me.
  • I firmly believe Kyle will be the 2008 champion. The biggest reason is because the more people that doubt him, the more he proves them wrong. Jimmie just won a messed up race Sunday, and none of the teams got into a rhythm with all the tire and pit drama. Obviously Jimmie would have most likely won anyway, though. Hendrick has always been good there, so it shouldn't have been a surprise. Kyle has won 3 of the last 5, and I think he is fixing to crank it up for the chase starting next week at Pocono. One top 15 finish isn't bad at all, it only showed that he was human.
  • Winning in the regular season is one think but when it comes to crunch time my money is on the one that's "been there, done that!!"
  • I wouldn't say that Jimmie has the edge going into the championship but he is certainly not phased by the fact that he is not leading now. The 48 team obviously knows how to raise the level of their game when it counts and JJ does good at the chase tracks. JGR teams have also been in that situation before and coach will have them motivated as well. It will be a good battle between 4 or 5 teams this year, in my opinion.
    3 STR8 N 08!!!
  • The problem Jimmie Johnson is going to run into his his deficit when the Chase starts in Spetember.

    Right now since kyle has 7 wins and Jimmie has only two they would start the chase with 5070 points and 5020 points respectively.

    If Jimmie can win another time or even tow that woulg greatly increase his chances of securing a third title. Something that has not been done in a very long time.

    Jimmie may ahve the edge if his team has been holding back for the 10 chase races. He had a great record through the chase last season and may have enough momentum now to actually win a third in a row.
  • Jimmy Johnson has a better chance than DALE JR!!! not KYLE...see unlike Dale, Kyle Busch is great driver with or without his TOYOTA. Which bring me to this point....your driver is not as GOOD as MINE!!

    Nope YOU DIDN't.....but " I DONT GIVE A DAMN"

    past ACCOMPLISHMENTS???...you mean his LEGACY...somthing DALE JR WILL NEVER HAVE!!!! and the "legacy" he somewhat has is cause of his name. JEFF GORDON MADE HIS OWN NAME
