Greetings, race fans! With 10 races left in the 2010 Trifecta season, the chase for the coveted Triple Lug Nut Trophy is still up for grabs. Everyone has visited Victory Lane at least once, and there is still no clear front runner for the championship. CR leads the standings with 4 wins.

This week finds the Trucks and Indy cars in Kentucky, while the Nationwide and Cup cars visit Atlanta.

The race line-up:

1.) The NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race from Kentucky, Friday September 3; green flag drops at 8:18pm ET (entry list)

2.) The NASCAR Nationwide Series race from Atlanta, Saturday, September 4; green flag drops at 7:16pm ET (entry list)

3.) The IRL race from Kentucky, Saturday September 4; green flag drops at 9:00pm ET (entry list)

  13. Kristen-

    Don't start counting your chickens, yet. Yes, tez has completed all his races, but the Trifecta win is far from being his. It all depends on how Kyle, Jamie, Biffle, and Kurt do tonight. If Kurt wins, you beat tez.

  14. You mean that cheater from BC is gonna win again??? LOL

    Don't think I'll be bettin' on Kahne again anytime soon...

    If it continues to stand this way... Congrats to tez!

  15. It's happy dance time!!!!!

    As for the Trifecta, both Kyle and Kurt put forth a valliant effort to try and topple tez from the top of the leaderboard, but they came up just a little bit short. By virtue of posting first, the win goes to tez. He ties CR in the overall standongs with 4 wins.

    Congrats, tez!!

    The final standings:

    tez 13
    hanny 13

  18. WTG Tez!

    I now have two ties for 1st place, and lost both of them. I need a Beagle Beacon to signal me when the Tri is posted each week to get my picks in faster. LOL

  19. Congrats Tez!! Hey I am just happy Helio won for me and Kurt managed to salvage a top 10 finish...I feel like a winner...LOL

  20. I lucked out by picking first me thinks...although I was swapping between Andretti and Wheldon so if I'd gone with Dan, Gene probably wouldn't be feeling as bummed out.
