I knew it. I should have seen the signs. This past weekend I was at a wedding where most of the people were from South Bend, IN. At my table at the reception, I learned that one of the guys went to high school with Ryan Newman and actually dated his sister. I SHOULD HAVE PLACED A BET ON NEWMAN TO WIN RIGHT THEN AND THERE. Damnit. Anyway, Newman and JJ go 1-2, and I think it gives Barqs a perfect score? Qual 1-2, finish 1-2. Depends on the bonus points, but either way it is a dominating win for Barqs.

Couple of close shaves this weekend; Chandler Smoke survives early JR trouble and hang to collect the win over Conn (time to put in Bill Eliot?). Busch Whacker barely survive over Buzz; big win of the week goes to Fender Benders, who ‘wisely’ start Montoya and take down previous white hot team T-Bone:
