2012 Marty Smashy Cup Crashy II - Sprint Cup Series

Isn't it confirmed that Labonte is staying in the 47 car next year yet or not?

I'm not gonna count Kez out, either.

The problem is, we've seen this same song and dance before. Once Jimmie gets the point lead after Martinsville, nobody's been able to catch him.

Here's to hoping that Kez bucks that trend.

Hamlin had Jimmie after Texas in 2010, but he blew it at Phoenix when he had at least a 2nd place car, and Homestead wrecking himself. I think it should be a fight though. 2 points=2 spots on the race track. Keep in mind the points difference going into Homestead last year was 3 points that Tony had to make up. Carl finished one spot behind him and lost the title.

Bobby Labonte Sure did Help his Chances to stay in that Car in 2013

Bobby's always been pretty solid at Martinsville along with that #47 team. While I would like to see him retire, it's nice to see Labonte get a good run like that.

Jimmie is too consistent to let go, that's the problem. You can't let him have good run after good run or he'll just run away from you.

You also have to take into fact that Brad's team has blown points via stupid calls.

It's also been confirmed that Chevrolet have clinched the 2012 Sprint Cup Manufacturers Championship, which quite frankly I'm not surprised they would win it at all.
