Down the stretch ... 1 to go!

Two more races have passed, and there's one race to go with $41 in prize money at stake.

At Texas, Quang's Racin' Kahne recorded a sweep with Denny Hamlin (1st) and Mark Martin (3rd) leading the way to a team score of 64 points, beating out the Smoke Bombs (76), Shake N Bake (76) and the Cheatin' Cheaters (78).

At Phoenix, Foges' Smoke Bombs moved back into the money lead -- possibly for good -- with a sweep. A 1-2 finish from Carl Edwards and Ryan Newman led to a team score of 59, which outdistanced the second-place Cheaters' 69.

What's left to settle:

* The $7/$14 in race prize money from Sunday's Ford 400 at Homestead-Miami.

* The $20 award for owning the Cup champion.

Only Shake N Bake is assured of losing money. Racin' Kahne can vault into positive turf if Denny Hamlin wins the Sprint Cup title. Redneck Tribe would have to sweep the individual and team prizes this week to break even. And the Cheaters could catapult into plus ground with a Jimmie Johnson championship and at least a team win at Miami.

Good luck, and we'll arrange to settle up after Sunday's race (only Joe paid his full entry fee of $145).
