Class of 2014 "NASCAR Rookies" is Impressive !

Most of the racing press is following the winners for the Chase contenders and quietly we have a great battle going on between two outstanding Rookies.
Austin Dillion in the famous #3 is at 252 points with one top ten and no dnf's, good for $1,560,762 dollars. The other legitimate contender is #42 Kyle Larson at 251 points, two top fives, four top tens and one dreaded dnf. Purse of $1,478,943
 Not since 2002 when a new driver Jimmie Johnson and Ryan Newman went toe to toe for the prestigious honor has there been such a influx of raw rookie talent.
 At #28 in the standings is Justin Allgiar. Michael Annett is in the top 35 at #33. Alex Bowan in the 34th spot.Young Cole Whitt sits at the 35th spot and Ryan Truex at the 38th spot with one fewer race.
  Parker Kligerman is the first financial casualty of the 2014 racing season. These drivers are here in the big show now.
 Just knocking on the door at a much lower entrance salary are young shoes, Ty Dillion a sure addition next season. Two 16 year olds, Cole Custer and Gray Spaulding. Three 17 year olds, Erik Jones, Jesse Little and Ben Rhodes. 18 year old Ruben Garcia Jr. Austin Hill, Ryan Preece,  Braydon McReynolds, Ryan Gifford, Dakota Armstrong, Ryan Reed, Jeffrey Earnhardt and Johanna Long

#16 Gregg Biffle and #99 Carl Edwards must be looking over their shoulders and now know to stay in the big show will certainly be with a salary cut on the down turn of the USA economy and sponsors.
 Has any one had more bad luck than Martin Truex Jr in the #78 Furniture Row good ride ?
 The only one also on the down turn would be #15 newly wed Clint Boyer for Michael Waltrip Racing. Maybe Jamie McMurray should step it up also to keep his ride in the new 2015 NASCAR Fraternity.

 That's what I think.     What do you think ?     Wayne G. Barber host of the "Race Chatter"
