Clint Bowyer
On a track that has always been difficult to pass on, Clint Bowyer didn't have to worry about that as he dominated the field to take his first Nextel Cup win. In what seemed a very easy victory, Boyer never seemed to be in trouble as his RCR prepared Chevy Impala won in convincing fashion.
It's always nice to see a first time winner on the Cup circuit, as we did previously this year with Martin Truex Jr. Both Boyer and Truex are two of the up and coming drivers on the Cup circuit and they both race the field clean as all good drivers do. With his win Bowyer now finds himself in fourth place just 15 points behind co-leaders Gordon and Johnson and only five back of third place Tony Stewart.
It seems that this new scoring format has done it's job and has created a real close competition among several drivers. It would be really cool to see a young driver like Bowyer get hot these last nine races and take the championship away from the favorites of the series. If not him then maybe Martin Truex, Kyle Busch or Denny Hamlin can steal the title.
Wouldn't it be fitting if Kyle Busch, who was released by Hendrick to make way for Dale Jr., won the championship and takes it to his new home at Joe Gibbs Racing in 2008. So keep it up guys, this race fan wants to see a first time champion crowned at Homestead in November.
