Biggest Surprises And Disappointments

Biggest Surprises
1.Kevin Harvick: 19th in points in 2009 with 9 Top 10 finishes to most points earned over entire season with 26 Top 10’s. Not just that, but his entire team made the Chase.
2.Jamie McMurray:  At the end of 2009, Jamie didn’t even know if he was going to have a job and Chip Ganassi put him in the 1 car and McMurray won the Daytona 500 and the Brickyard 400 in the same year. Great year for Jamie.

Biggest Disappointment
1.Dale Earnhardt Jr.: He is with the best team in the garage and has not the put numbers on the board at Hendrick Motorsports. It has a big disappointment to the fans as well.
2.Juan Montoya: Was no where to be seen in 2010 and completely fell off the map. Montoya demolition-derbied his way through 2010. This is a guy who was a threat to win it all in 2009.

Best Driver Of 2010 (Not Jimmie Johnson)
1.Kevin Harvick: I think a majority of NASCAR fans would agree with me on this pick.
