They being the best average finish over the last 15 races at Talladega Superspeedway
- Brad Keselowski (7 races) 13.0
- Clint Bowyer 15.6
- Jimmie Johnson 15.9
- Joey Logano (7 races) 16.1
- Kurt Busch 16.2
- Kevin Harvick 16.3
But there is that one wildcard worry at any restrictor plate race, and that's being at the wrong spot at the wrong time. Poor Mark Martin can tell you about that one. He's always getting caught up in stuff at plate races.
But bad timing can't be ignored, as these top finishers seem to have circumnavigated the bad luck a little better than than the others. Don't be there when a tire goes down. Not being there when some stubbornness kicks in gear, and causes a wreck.
Here are the last few winners from this track, and if you'll notice, there are a few repeat winners in this list. If this track were that random with the "big one" factor, I don't think we'd see this many repeat winners in such a short span of time...
- 5/6/2012 Brad Keselowski
- 10/23/2011 Clint Bowyer
- 4/17/2011 Jimmie Johnson
- 10/31/2010 Clint Bowyer
- 4/25/2010 Kevin Harvick
- 11/1/2009 Jamie McMurray
- 4/26/2009 Brad Keselowski
- 10/5/2008 Tony Stewart
Well, the green flag just dropped. I'm out of here and settling in to watch the race.
