Here's a look at the updated 'classic' standings after 8 races. Kyle Busch extends his point lead, after back-to-back wins. With 300 points, Busch leads Joey Logano by 29 points, and Clint Bowyer by 38 (I have to note, Bowyer's start to the season has been pretty impressive). Kevin Harvick improves to 6th place, while Martin Truex Jr. drops to 7th. You'll notice that the top-6 is entirely made up of Joe Gibbs, Stewart Haas, and Team Penske cars... Alex Bowman is Hendrick's best showing, cracking back into the top-10... But Busch's start is the most impressive. Aside from a rough Daytona 500 where he placed 25th, Busch then finished 7th at Atlanta, before finishing the last six races inside the top-3.
