#31 Jeff Burton gave #48 Jimmie Johnson a great series, but in the end #48 was a little better and defeated #31 3 Races to 1. #48 won the last 3 races, and the key race turned out to be Race #2 where #31 scored 47 points, but #48 scored 49 points getting the big win. CONGRATS to #48!
#42 Juan Montoya lost his final 2 races to #2 Kurt Busch by 2 points each, and had his chances to win in Race #4 at Atlanta with 2 laps to go, but had a bad restart to lose. Race #3 and #4 were the key races in this classic series, and both racers will always remember that final restart with 2 laps to go with the season on the line for #42. #2 won this series 3 Race to 1 with the two classic 2 points wins. CONGRATS to #2!
