Well, the regular season is in the books. The results are as follows:
1. Smokin'
2. FlaCowboy
3. Jip
4. justkidding 5
5. Vega Kid
6. P10 Select 22
7. Da Rowdy Gambler
8. osby 1


Now on to the playoffs! You get 5 uses per driver over the last races. Remember that the 4 Championship drivers will not earn stage points on the last race of the season. Get ready ... it is playoff time!

We are racing at Darlington this week (Sunday at 6PM ET). The first Southern 500 at Darlington was raced in 1950! Darlington is a 1.366 mile oval with 25 degrees of banking in turns 1 & 2 and 23 degrees of banking in turns 3 & 4. There is 3 degrees of banking on the front stretch and 2 degrees on the back stretch. The race is 367 laps. Hendrick Motor Sports is the team with the most wins (11) and David Pearson holds the record with the most wins with 10 total.

Practice is Saturday at 12:05 and Qualifying is Saturday at 12:50 (USA Network). The race is scheduled for 6PM Sunday on USA Network.

Looking over the past winners of this historic race there have been some iconic names that have made the winner's circle: Johnny Mantz won the first race in 1950. Herb Thomas (3x), Fonty Flock, Speedy Thompson, Jim Reed, Nelson Stacy, Fireball Roberts (2), Buck Baker (2), Buddy Baker, Ned Jarrett, Richard Petty, Cal (5) and LeeRoy Yarbourgh, Bobby Allison (4), Terry Labonte (2) Neil Bonnett, David Pearson (10), Harry Gant (2), Bill Elliott (3), Dale Earnhardt (3), Darrell Waltrip, Mark Martin (2), Jeff Gordon (6), Jeff Burton, Bobby Labonte, Ward Burton, Greg Biffle (2), Jimmie Johnson (2), Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin (2 - including last year), Regan Smith, Matt Kenseth, Kevin Havick (2), Carl Edwards, Martin Truex, Jr., Brad keselowski, and Erik Jones.

Harvick caught on fire. Then Truex,Jr threw a belt and was done. Then Twerp blew up under caution… tough night for Chase drivers. Jones is on pole when we go green with about 20 laps to go. Joey is in 5th …

We will check after inspections, but Jip has a near inspection proof lead for a Darlington 1st place. Smokin’! has the potential #2 position. If the scores hold, Smokin’! still leads the overall, but Jip has overtaken FlaCowboy for the #2 spot.
