Joliet, Illinois. There are several interesting stories that jeremiahboyce.com will cover for you during the running of the Geico 400, not the least of which is the possible run at a sixth straight title for JJ and team 48. Among the other stories that we will cover for you is the resurgence of Dale Earnhardt Junior. Jimmie’s reasons why he could have trouble defending his kingdom are Smoke and 43 other drivers who are tired of the same old song and dance, including Jeff Gordon. Last year, during Jimmie’s run to a fifth straight title, Gordon said, “that 48 is really testing my patience.” Example number two, the Advocare 500 in Atlanta earlier this year, where Jimmie and Jeff battled to the end, and the elder statesman of the Hendrick stable beat the five-time champion. Plus the Rocket Man, the driver of the number 39 US Army Chevrolet for Stewart Haas Racing, South Bend Indiana native Ryan Newman. All these stories make for a perfect storm, otherwise known as Hurricane Chase for the NEXTEL Cup, and in the middle of the storm, one man, one team, one company, the driver of the Lowes Chevrolet, Mr. Five Time Jimmie Johnson.
