Myrtle Beach, SC — Below is a listing of the top 20 drivers in points, a South Georgia Review and a USA Int’l Preview.
 

Benny Gordon - 2007

Finish at South Georgia: 11th
Championship Series Points: 584
Points behind 1st: 132

Point positions gained/lost at South Georgia: +1
Season Avg. Finish: 9.9
Championship Avg. Finish: 15.0
 

South Georgia Review
Gordon made the most of a bad night by rallying to finish 11th. It was a far cry from his dominating performance at SGMP last year, but his 11th-place finish keeps him within 34 points of breaking into the top five in points.
 


USA Int’l Preview
USA Int’l hasn’t been Gordon’s best track over the years. His best run came during his 2005 championship season when he finished fourth. For the first time in his career, Gordon is mathematically eliminated from the championship battle before the final race. The only thing that could ease his pain is a win, but a top-three is more likely.

Best Finish at USA Int’l: 4th (11/26/05)
Starts at USA Int’l: 6
