Ok I realized I posted this and then didn't even answer the questions myself! LOL! That's not really fair so here are my answers:

>3. Who would you LEAST like to see win it?
>Jeff Gordon or Jr.

>4. Who do you think WILL win it? Probably Jimmie, but my money's on Kurt
>
>5. If you could improve the Chase in one way what
>would you do? I would expand it to the top 15 teams instead of the top ten. There were several teams that didn't make the Chase this year that could have been in contention if they had made it (ex. McMurray, Kahne, and Jarrett). While there are a few teams that did make it, that haven't had a prayer from the beginning. Maybe separate them by more points, but do top 15 not just 10. (Just my two cents. LOL! And that's about all it's worth!)

Since I'm new to Nascar, I don't know a lot about the old system. However, I would like it to be the top 15 at the end of 26 races with 11th place still having the extra million incentive.

I would like to see Mark Martin get it too.

Kurt Busch. I'm just not a big fan of his.

I'm thinking Jimmie too due to him having the momentum, but they've proven that anything can happen...so who knows...LOL!

I completely agree with you! I know no one has won the championship from 11th place, but at least Jamie McMurray and Kasey would finish in the top 10 this year if they went with the top 15 after 26 races. I think it would be more exciting too!
