Tony Stewart wound up ninth Sunday night and has a 45-point edge over Kasey Kahne in the battle for a Chase spot.
“It is no ‘gimme’ by any means,” said Stewart. “We have been pretty good at Richmond but so have the guys who are with us in the Chase. We have one more week and we will see. I am not very comfortable at all, but if we go do what we normally do at Richmond, we should be all right.”
Stewart has four top-10 finishes in his past five Richmond starts. "I think we just have to go out and do what we always do,” he said. “That is how we have won two championships and how we have been in the top-10 in points every year I have been in the series.”

Yeah take a break.

After some of Tonys antics this year, I could care less if he makes it or not. The only reason I would like to see him in it again, is he is one guy that can keep the 48 and 24 from getting the Cup.

This again shows that it isn't really a race to the finish. All he and others have been doing is just insuring that they get into the France Chase.

Yes...sad...sad...sad. : (

And I don't blame them. If that was the system I had to work with I can't say I'd do any differently, but in the long run I think it hurts the sport.

Exactly .... and the current point system IS all there is to work with. When and if it ever changes we can only hope that it is for the betterment of the sport.

AMEN this Point system sucks!

I got to say that this new race for the chase format stinks. You mean that if Stewart, Biffle or Edwards WON the next 10 Races they still wouldn't be able to be the Champion????????????????????????
Doesn't Nascar know how many people will be turned off and not turn on the TV because their Driver doesn't have a chance?
What if the 1978 Yankees who were like 14 games behind the Red Socks COULDNT COME BACK? It would have ruined the game. What if Boston Fans who are 10 games out now were told, "ok from this date if your not winning you can't win". THIS IS STUPID.
Please help me understand and tell me what I am missing...I am open to learning, but its going to be a hard sell

Quite possible for Matt Kenseth to make your dream come true since it is apparent that Tony won't have a chance to win.
