The Roush cars couldn't keep a motor together today.
I think if Edwards wasn't holding it back all day so it wouldn't blow, he would have had a good shot at it. 
Last week it was the Hedrick cars at Cali who have valvetrain issues, this week the Roush cars had issues. Wonder what exactly?
I saw that Jr. didn't shake off his string of mental "mistakes"... he gets popped for speeding on entry to pit road... I guess Jr. must really enjoy racing from a lap down... more incentive maybe?

Career stats: 328 races. 18 wins. 8 poles. 86 top 5s. 137 top tens. 43 DNFs. Avg finish 17.6. Avg start 15.0. 11 years racing = Medicare
I think you meant mediocre.

Ok I have a question, how can someone whos average finish is almost 3 spots lower than his average starting position be considered a top 5% caliber driver?

The article linked in post 140 that you quoted said he was better than 95% of his peers.
Finsishing worse than you start most of your races is pretty average imo.
Your math is off. Being better than 95% of your peers does not mean you're in the top 5% of all NASCAR drivers past and present. First you have to understand what a "peer" is.
If you compare the numbers they don't lie. Go back and look through them yourself.

Wow, NASCAR does everything in their power to make Kyle Bush win.
I think I am going to stop watching it.
It's scripted, or at the very least orchestrated.

He will finish out of the top 10 more times this year then he does in the top. The only reason he got a top 10 in Vegas is b/c Edwards blew up with 2 laps left. Guess you can be a phenom in Nascar when you rely on others blowing up and taking other people out to advance your position. I mean hes so awesome hes in 29th in points

although I am not a fan of his, can you honestly say the kid isn't talented? He can win in any car or truck on pretty much any track. The only thing stopping him from winning a cup is himself and bad luck.
He is that good, IMO.
Please enlighten us.
