interesting stat…..In NASCAR Sprint Cup history, 20 drivers have won six or more races through the first 18 events – 14 have gone on to win the series championship. Bill Elliott holds the record for the most after 18 races, with 9 wins, he won 2 more the rest of the season. #18-Kyle Busch has 6 in 2008 after 18 races, the first driver to do so since Jeff Gordon in 1997.(ESPN’s NASCAR Now only listed 3 drivers since 1980, see NASCAR.com for the full list of drivers)(7-8-2008)
