jbraun57's Nationwide Fictional Season

Power Rankings, Season 1:

41. 31 Dave Blaney
With such a stacked field, there isn't much potential here.

40. 25 Boris Said
The only reason he's not last is his road course potential.

39. 55 Robby Gordon
Combination of Said and Blaney: Stacked Field/Road Course Potential.

38. 47 Michael McDowell
He's lucky to have this good of a ride.

37. 09 Landon Cassill
Has good potential, just needs to live up to it.

36. 66 Steve Wallace
He wants a shot.

35. 4 Regan Smith
Another instance of the really stacked field, and not-so-good equipment.

34. 64 David Stremme
A shot in the dark. Could definitely not live up to it.

33. 62 Brendan Gaughan
Once again, so much competitiveness.

32. 41 Reed Sorenson
He's good in these types of cars, and can probably do better.

31. 59 Marcos Ambrose
Can win on the road courses.

30. 10 AJ Allmendinger
Doesn't have much experience with these types of cars.

29. 12 Sam Hornish Jr.
Has good equipment, but can he do good in it?

28. 90 Elliott Sadler
Yet another example of such a good field. Can do better.

27. 99 David Reutimann
It's all in the equipment.

26. 77 Bobby Labonte
Oldie but goodie.

25. 38 Jason Leffler
If he lives up to this ranking, watch out.

24. 6 David Ragan
All in the equipment, for the nth time.

23. 42 Juan Montoya
Pretty good. Can do well on the road courses.

22. 24 Casey Mears
Wants to get things done. If he can't, could be out of a ride for next season.

21. 15 Paul Menard
Has no real specialties track-wise.

20. 21 Austin Dillon
The kid needs to prove himself.

19. 11 Martin Truex Jr.
The 2004/2005 NASCAR Busch Series champion can surprise.

18. 29 Jeff Burton
He's getting old.

17. 88 Brad Keselowski
Pretty young guy ranked high. Has proved himself before.

16. 26 Jamie McMurray
Top 16 is prety good for J Mac.

15. 57 Brian Vickers
2003 NASCAR Busch Series champ. Has good equipment too. Could fly under the radar.

14. 06 Mark Martin
Looking to prove that he can still do it after old age.

13. 1 Ryan Newman
Would be ranked higher, but equipment is sub-par.

12. 8 Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Superspeedways are his specialties. Also good at Short Tracks.

11. 92 Tony Stewart
Also good at Superspeedways. Looking for a good result.

10. 5 Jimmie Johnson
Could disappoint, but this is 6-Pack.

9. 39 Kurt Busch
Hasn't run these type of cars for a lot of years. Neither has anyone else, for that matter.

8. 16 Greg Biffle
Top 8 Ranking is pretty good for Da Biff.

7. 20 Joey Logano
Young gun that can win races.

6. 2 Clint Bowyer
2008 NASCAR Busch Series champion. Can win some races.

5. 17 Matt Kenseth
Will get at least Top 10 finish in points.

4. 9 Kasey Kahne
Bold ranking. Needs to live up to it now.

3. 33 Kevin Harvick
Is really good at all tracks. Has a real shot at the championship.

2. 60 Carl Edwards
Will be tough to beat #1.

1. 18 Kyle Busch
Nothing to say, except he has the best chance to win it all.
