Can Bowyer Be The '07 Champion ???

MARTINSVILLE, Va. – You almost hate to mention Clint Bowyer’s name. It might blow his cover. Come on, you know as well as I do the driver of the No. 07 Chevrolets has to be in the witness protection program or something. How else could he maintain his anonymity despite being third in the standings halfway through the Chase for the Nextel Cup?
“You sit down in your motor home, watch TV and the commercials come on,” Bowyer says. “They say, ‘Come watch Tony Stewart chase down Jeff Gordon for the championship!’ You're like, 'Man!' ”
To be fair, the commercials actually encourage fans to come watch Jimmie Johnson and Stewart try to catch Gordon. But the point is pretty much the same.
“That’s fuel for the fire, that's all it is,” says Bowyer, who starts 21st in Sunday’s Subway 500 at Martinsville Speedway. “It makes you want to do well even more, so I like it.”

That's Racin' | 10/20/2007 | Bowyer, team contending and he believes they can win it all

I think if he wins another race and runs good in the others, Gordon and Johnson have their trouble, the title could be his. I think that would be great and would love to see it happen.

No, but he could win the consolation event aka "The Chase".

On this subject I would quote one of the greatest writers and newspapermen of the 20th Century, Daymon Runyon:

"The battle is not always to the strongest, nor is the race always to the swiftest... But that's the way to bet."
