I don't think that the Chase Drivers are letting him win at all. I am a Tony Stewart fan and I am glad that he is doing so well even though he is out of the Chase. Several of the Chase drivers have had bad runs at several tracks during the Chase. THis past weekend at least 5 of them had problems from wrecking to engine failure. The sad thing is that they don't want other drivers to be ahead of them or to win. There have been several occasions where certain Chase drivers have basically demanded non-Chase drivers to let them by because of the mere fact that they were in the Chase. Tony Stewart is the kind of driver that will go for the win no matter what. If he is in the Chase or Not he is striving to get that #20 Home Depot Chevy into VIctory land every week along with the other drivers on the track.

I'm a 48 fan but still like Tony. Tony should be a Chaser...he just had his streak of bad luck right before we got to the Chase and he unfortunately didn't make it. He was dominating so much last night and his speeds were so much faster than any other drivers for a period of time that I must admit I began wondering if he would get caught for cheating. That's not a slam on him...they all cheat...it's just about who can cheat and not get caught. I believe that they may be more careful in racing Tony...like last night Jimmie said over his radio something that indicated to me that he would rather be more careful and finish 2nd then push it too hard and end up wrecking trying to get 1st. I definitely don't think the Chase drivers are letting him win...Tony is a great driver. But GO JIMMIE!!! ;)

No - the car that Tony had at Atlanta and Texas was just awesome for those tracks. He ran the same car at both tracks - and look for it again at Homestead.
Kasey commented that nobody could get into the corners like Tony could. Last night Tony was saying that the car he had was nearly perfect ("F*cking badass" was what he said to his crew about it, as I recall), one of the top-10 cars he's ever driven.
Just because Tony had some bad luck during the season and missed the chase by 35 points this year doesn't mean that he's not still a threat in anything with wheels.

While I am NOT a Tony Stewart fan, I have to say I think he just has a stronger car than the other drivers. Every driver wants to win the race so I don't think they would let him win.

NO I don't think so at all Tony is just that good and the Chasers should be glad that they are not chasing him because like Kevin Harvick in the Busch series it would be over...Tony is a great driver.
Does anybody eles think that his personal trainer traveling with him has really help he looked great yesterday durning the interviews

No, there is too much money at stake to "let" someone else win. Tony almost always runs well. Besides, he has a new woman in his life, he is eating healthier and exercising, and the pressure of the Chase and even 11th place are off him. He is just plain having fun.

No, I highly doubt that they're letting him win. I'm a Dale Jr. fan, but I like Tony as well, and I just think that he's had a great car recently, and he's a great driver. They all have their ups and downs. This just happens to be one of Tony's ups.

No, the chase drivers aren't letting him win. Tony has been driving so well and his cars have been so awesome that the other drivers just don't have a chance to challenge him. GO SMOKE!!!

Tony said he had little to race for after not making the chase so he would give the chase drivers every thing that they can handle and he would not roll over and let them win,without earning it.
GO JOE GIBBS RACING!!!!
