Despite missing the cut for the Chase for the Sprint Cup, David Ragan said he's not done this year. Ragan spoke with reporters during a break in a Goodyear tire test at Daytona International Speedway this week, saying he plans to make some headlines in the final races. "I want to be a spoiler and make a lot of noise during the Chase," Ragan said. "We've got some good tracks coming up. We've got a lot of desire and heart on our team to go out and get the job done and make things exciting the last (nine) weeks. ... "We're in a position where we don't have a lot to lose but a lot to gain. ... We're going to finish in the top 13 or 14 in points, but we want to go out and learn a few things and end the season on a good note." -- Atlanta Journal-Sentinel

I would like to see him win before the season is over. He sure has come a long way from last year.

This is another problem I have with the Chase. The guys that don't make it are pressured by NASCAR into thinking they can't race anymore, yet they have to show up at the track anyway. I'm glad David said this. It makes him an even more likeable kid. The problem is, if he starts racing for a top 5, he'll likely be promptly black flagged and fined.

Boy do I agree with that. He is a nice fresh face who has come from the bottom of the pile. I recall last year he was all about accidents. If there was one on the track , he was generally a part of it. He'll be worth watching next year.
