Wondering What It Would Take to Clinch Any of the Series Titles?

All three NASCAR series title championships are coming down to the wire at Homestead next weekend!   Well, check out the different scenarios:

NASCAR Sprint Cup Series

Brad Keselowski has a 20 point lead over five-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion Jimmie Johnson.  For the Ford Championship Weekend at Homestead-Miami Speedway, Keselowski can clinch his first NASCAR Sprint Cup championship with a finish of 15th or better; or 16th and at least one lap led; or 17th and the most laps led, even if Johnson wins and leads the most laps.

No one else is in consideration for the title.  Boys can have at it.

NASCAR Nationwide Series

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. also has a 20 point lead over Elliott Sadler.  Again, Ricky can get his NASCAR Nationwide Series driver championship with a finish of 16th or better; or 17th or better with at least one lap led; or 18th or better with most laps led at Homestead.

NASCAR Camping World Truck Series

James Buescher has an 11-point lead over Timothy Peters looking at Homestead. Buescher can win his title with a finish of 7th or better with no laps led; or 8th or better with one lap led; or 9th or better with the most laps led.

So with everyone looking as if anyone who wrecks out loses their respective title, all three NASCAR racing series will be a tension building event until fans of each points leader actually crosses the finish line in one piece.

Failed tires or tiny inexpensive parts could be the story of any of the three days... or locked up championships will be the story of the day.
