I thought I would pull this thread back up after the season. 10 different winners in what seemed to be a strange season where just limiting DNFs and bad results isn't what won the Championship. JG had very rough stretch through May and early June before stabilizing in mid June and then becoming dominate after Sprintweek. Bacon was as advertised again this year and was night in and night out the best on the tour, his bad stretch came in the stretch run of the year and it let Grant slip away.
Axsom, Swanson, Leary, and Seavey all seemed to have hot runs throughout the year but also had very bad times as well. Cummins season looked like an EKG printout where he would win one night and be outside the top ten the next. Moles may have set a record torn up equipment but did get a win and lets not forget Westfalls big big win as well.
I thought it was a great season, and the Championship was up for grabs by several guys until late in the year.
