Thornton’s Hot 20 in NASCAR

Ron Thornton - October 27, 2011

Up next is Martinsville, a track Cousin Carl has never won at, one that could see him falter. It might not be enough to save Jimmie Johnson's hopes of maintaining his lock on the title, but it could open a door for Keselowski, Matt Kenseth, or Tony Stewart.

Hot 20 over the past 10 – Forget Top Tens, as it is now Top Fives that will win the crown

Hot 20 over the past 10 – Imagine the embarrassment if Keselowski had not made the Chase

Ron Thornton - October 5, 2011
