Gathering all of the numbers (and adding a few of my own), I sort them in order of %LLF (lead lap finishes), then by # of races, and then by %LL (laps led). Low and behold, all 10 of our chase competitors are in the top 15. The other 5 wouldn’t qualify for my list normally anyway, ‘cause they don’t have 10 starts. Kasey’s only 2 names off that list. Kyle Bush and Denny Hamlin only have 4 starts between them, but they’ve finished every one on the lead lap. Kyle’s 3 are all top 5’s; Denny’s is a 2nd place finish. Big StewartFanStat winner this week; Dale Jr. 14 Starts, 3 wins, 7 top 5’s, 9 top 10’s, and has finished 71% of his races here on the lead lap. That’s the most wins of all the drivers here this weekend. He’s only led 5.8% of the laps he’s turned here, so look for him at the end. Tony Stewart shares the 3 win stat, and unless they shove Terry in a car this weekend, they’re the only two with 3 wins. Tony has the highest % of laps led. He’s been in clean air for 13.1% of the circuits he’s completed at RIR. With the wins, he’s got 5 top 5’s, 10 top 10’s, and a 66.7% LLF stat. You can expect him to have a lot of confidence on this track, and lead a lot of laps. Matt Kenseth has good numbers here, with 69.2% finishes on the lead lap and 1 win. Jimmie Johnson is last on the stat chart of chase competitors with only 1 top 5 in 9 starts. Kasey Kahne will be looking to add a second win in only 6 starts. At only 30 points out, he’ll still need a little help from someone, but I’ve already predicted he’ll make it. Robby Gordon, 1 top 5, 7% LLF, and 0.7% laps led. In a word; pitiful. He’s doing pretty well in that Navy car; maybe he should make it his permanent gig and leave the big cars to the real drivers.
