Gotta figure, this is the last best chance for Gordon to get # 5
Johnson's got time on his side and he'll more than likely tie, maybe best ...the King & The Intimidater
If there is a Script..and I believe there might be as NASCAR moves more toward Reality TV VS a Sport ...
Then the thief will, purchase a last cup to Gordon
and certainly one for Junior a some point.
Bad Brad, the Busch Bros. and Smoke , will have to get theirs on shear talent, while side stepping the mystery cautions,etc.
Smoke however, may be done
and this Kyle Larson kid may well be the next Gordon & Logano may have one in him too...
JMHO opinion
