No change in Sprint Cup Points Standings

With a ninth place finish in the race Sunday afternoon at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, our Jimmie Johnson still remains in third place in the Sprint Cup points standings. As a matter of fact there were no major changes in standing of the 12 drivers eligible for the 10-race Chase for the Championship. With nine races remaining, the 12 are Stewart, Gordon, Johnson, Kurt Busch, Edwards, Hamlin, Newman, Kyle Busch, Biffle, Kenseth, Martin and Montoya. One point separates Kahne from Montoya and 12 points separate 14th-place Reutimann from Montoya for 12th spot.

We are starting to get down to the wire so let us keep cheering Jimmie onto another championship which will give him four in a row. Speaking of quality Chevrolets like the #48 be sure to check out our specials for the July 4th weekend coming up right here at Jimmie Johnson Chevrolet in Kearny Mesa of San Diego.

Chad Knaus Honored

Congratulations to Chad Knaus, crew chief for the No. 48 Chevrolet driven by our own Jimmie Johnson. Chad was named the WYPALL Wipers Crew Chief of the Race following Sunday's Autism Speaks 400 at Dover International Speedway.

After leading for a total of 298 laps Jimmie was called in by Knaus with 36 laps to go for a four-tire change. An unfortunate faulty exchange by the crew put Jimmie back on the track in ninth place. But with precision team work by Johnson and Knaus, the No. 48 Hendrick Chevrolet was able to regain the lead in the final two laps.

"I'm so proud of these guys and Chad," said Johnson, who is currently third in the Series standings. They built me an awesome car and overall we had a solid day on pit road," said Johnson.

Again we want to say congratulations to Chad from all of us here at Jimmie Johnson Chevrolet in Kearny Mesa of San Diego. Check us out at jjchevy.com
