How do Skinner, Cope, and Shepherd keep getting into qualifying? Have any of them even made any kind of finish this year? Wonder what kind of sponsor is willing to keep backing these guys with no results.
 
Sheppard owns his own car. Cope I have no idea and Skinner runs a full time in the Truck Series but yeah more than likely they will not make the race.

Poor Schrader, always seems like a really nice guy, but can't even get anywhere in the Busch race. His sponsors must be all bald! :D
 
Another decent race for me, 715. Hopefully made up some ground. Not too eventful for a Bristol race though, pretty quiet!

Rats, just added up the top six teams, and I stayed in third, but lost ground again. Oh well, on to California! :)
