During the time they had the streak of nine wins NASCAR made rule changes to slow them down. While the wins weren't all luck there was some luck involved and they weren't really as far superior as the wins indicated. They slowed them down too much and now that the other makes are having better luck along with rule changes, it is starting to show. The dodges did dominate during that time but there was always 1 or 2 chevy's that always had a chance. They weren't completely blowing them away. Ford sucked though.Also the teams are a lot stronger than in the past. Joe Ruttman has been preaching this from the very first rule change and he was right. Unless nascar gives something back to dodge, i hink Jack Sprague (chevy boy) is going to run away with it like Jeff gordon who also runs for hendrick motorsports.

Default still 1 - 2 in points

The dodges are still 1-2 in the points so thats all that matters can't hog all the wins or the chevs will cry and the rules will change.

Sprague is #1 in points now. He drives a Chevy. NASCROLET made areo-related rules changes to get Ford a win or two and to make sure the performance-dominant make did not dominate the season.
