Sadly, Clint Bowyer won't be running enough races this year to defend his Nationwide crown and that's going to leave the door open for the likes of Carl Edwards and Kyle Busch.
If Carl Edwards, the 2007 champion, is able to come anywhere near last year's incredible comeback karma, he is probably looking at becoming the series' seventh two-time champion.
Edwards, who has always been a full-time driver in the NASCAR Nationwide Series, is one of two double-duty drivers who will vie for the 2009 championship.
When Kyle Busch isn't having snit fits from not winning every time out, he's done just about everything in the NASCAR Nationwide Series except win the title. He'll also being pulling the double duty, if the points race looks good enough for him this year. He won the series' Raybestos Rookie of the Year in 2004, and last year won 10 races in three different cars, finishing sixth in the standings despite running only 30 races. The 10 victories tied the record set by two-time champion Sam Ard in 1983.
The man is a nut.
Now we just need to keep an eye out to see how Edwards and Busch handle each other on the track this year!
