Round Two Elimination

In round two of the chase none of the chase drivers won a race. These three races were won by Brian Vickers, Kasey Kahne and Jimmie Johnson. After the second round four more drivers were eliminated and the top-8 moved on which can be seen below. The top-8 are arranged by how they were in points after the second round even though points reset before the third round begins.

  1. Matt Kenseth
  2. Carl Edwards
  3. Kevin Harvick
  4. Tony Stewart
  5. Dale Earnhardt Jr.
  6. Denny Hamlin
  7. Kurt Busch
  8. Mark Martin

  • 9th – Jeff Gordon(-1)
  • 10th – Jeff Burton (-10)
  • 11th – Clint Bowyer (-18)
  • 12th – Greg Biffle (-48)

2006 would have been another tough year for Gordon as he would have again missed moving on in the chase by only one point. Aside from Gordon and none of the chase drivers winning, there were not many surprises in this round of the chase.
