Default Jeff Gordon

Some say he is just darn lucky, others say he is very skilled. Love him or hate him it looks like hes on a roll.

Will this be the year he grabs his 5th Cup title? Thoughts....

You don't win 80+ races and 4 cups by being lucky. He is one of the best ever.

I'm a life-long Earnhardt fan. I rarely want Gordon to win (only if he's beating other guys I dislike more), but I do have respect for him.

With the points lead he gained during the "regular season", and seeing how he and his team have picked it back up during the Chase, it's looking like #5 for him.

All racers rely somewhat on luck, but that's not enough to win in Gordon style! He's a natural, and one of only two that I watch - the other is Tony Stewart

I think talent as a race car driver may show in wins. It really depends on the team and MONEY. That said Gordon is in an elite group. I think a guy like Matt Kenseth is every bit as good.

Tony should be fun to watch next season, especially if he misses a few races running a Toyota. The interviews will be great, look for expletives and how the car sucks.

Roush-Fenway is not hurting in the $$$ department. Kenseth is a good driver when his equipment is on the money. It takes a great driver to drive your car to the front when the handling is garbage and you need to find a different line around the track to make it work.
