As the curtain closes on the 2007 NASCAR Chase for the Nextel Cup, the listings for the Ford 400 from Homestead-Miami Speedway are as follows:
795 – Jimmie Johnson, #48
796 – Clint Bowyer, #07
797 – Jeff Gordon, #24
798 – Jeff Burton, #31
799 – Carl Edwards, #99
With only two contenders, Johnson and Gordon, having a chance of winning the Chase, and Johnson leading by 86 points, it will take a miracle for Jeff Gordon to overtake him. I suspect that even the lop-sidedness of the standings will not deter the teevee coverage from intensive hype. Enjoy it, though; there’s a long winter between now and Daytona in February1.
