Fort Worth, Texas. On the surface, it may look like the calm before the storm, but not so fast my friends. There is a reason why Chad Knaus and Jimmie Johnson have won five championships and are threatening to make it 6 championships. On the other side of the coin, we can’t forget about Jason Ratcliff and Matt Kenseth, because they are only seven points behind Johnson and Knaus going into the valley of the sun next Sunday. Who can take better care of their car going down the stretch? At one point yesterday, it looked like Matt Kenseth’s dream was over when he got a speeding penalty. Instead, we are once again forced to talk about what might have been for the number 24 team. One of these years Jeff Gordon is going to be hard to catch from start to finish. The only person who can catch Jimmie and Matt now is Kevin Harvick.
