The championship is up for grabs with Dai Yoshihara sitting in first place, Justin Pawlak in second and Darren McNamara in Third. It's pretty much locked down that a Falken driver will be taking home the championship. Although we shouldn't count out Chris Forsberg and Matt Powers the top three would all have to go down very early or not qualify for competition at all.
The rest of the field is looking to put on a good show, keep their sponsors happy and hopefully ride this last round to SEMA to lock down contracts for next season.
Also being decided this round is the Tires.com Triple crown award. Dai is also in excellent position to win having placed first in the two previous events. Could we see him take down both titles? That would be an achievement indeed. Also in the fight is Chris Forsberg and Darren McNamara. Again they would require a pretty poor showing for Dai this round.
And Finally Rookie of the year seems pretty much locked down by Odi Bakchis. Walker Wilkerson and Otto Graven do have a chance but would pretty much need to be on the podium for this event.
Either way I'm looking forward to an exciting event. We'll be out in the pits hope to see you all out there too!
