title says it al

isn't this a tad pre-mature??? At this stage he needs to concentrate on maybe getting a top-ten finish or just completing a race...

 

[Markfan]

I really don't think he will, but it would be interesting if he stepped up his game.

EDIT: Sorry, misread the title.

 

[DPawlak]

I really don't think he will. 500+ points is practically impossible to make up in 5 races.

key word here is NEXT...

 

[Johnny 3 Tears]

it for next year

2006: in
2007: out
2008: in
2009: out

by this trend of chase berths, Ralph Dale Earnhardt, Jr., will make the 2010 chase

YEah !

No, he is washed up and doomed to be an "Also ran..."

 

[Johnny 3 Tears]

i think if jr can get @ least 5 top 5's in the first 10 races he might get in the chase

 

[DPawlak]

No, he is washed up and doomed to be an "Also ran..."

His greatest achievement this year has been making the PRO SERIES in iRacing...

 

[fl17fan]

Which isn't saying much for a "Professional" race car driver.

Somehow I think that trend is going to be broken. He had a few good years in his career, much like Kyle Petty. Now he's going to follow the route of the rest of Kyle's career, post 1995.

 

[Markfan]

I bet he'll step it up when he has family competition. *Hint*Jeffery and Kerry*Hint*

Seriously how is Dale Jr. this popular yet Kerry has zilch?

Kerry hasn't been able to keep a ride for more than a few races at a time for most of his career. He probably still has a while to wait until Jeffery is a concern.

Jeff Gordon was horrible at a mile and a half tracks one year and missed the Chase entirely. Then they started building cars specifically to his liking and now the mile and a half tracks are were he does the best. My guess is that Junior is in it next year.

 

[TheShermanator]

Not saying it isn't all Jr's fault, but he has had alot of cases of bad luck this year that have taken away more than a few possible top ten runs. I hoping this is just one of those years and he will step it up and make it in next year. But for now, I just hope he can stay in the top 35, because that's where he's heading if they don't step up to the plate.
