Going into Week 12 competition, only three drivers, Bright, Nations, and Spears, have competed for ten of those weeks.

Drivers that race at NeSmith Performance Parts Street Stock Division tracks compete against each other through a points system that counts a driver’s best 14 weekly point totals during the 27-week season that runs through September 29. The 2013 NeSmith Performance Parts Street Stock Division champion will pocket $2,000 and the National point fund pays back to the Top 10 drivers at the end of the season.

As the top competitors close in on their 14th week of competition, we will outline the gauge that is used to determine “Who’s Hot and Who’s Not” that is called the Weekly Point Average, or the WPA for drivers in the Top 20 of the NeSmith Performance Parts Street Stock Division standings.

The highest WPA a driver can obtain is 50, which means that driver has won at least one race in each of the 14 weeks used to determine their season point total. In the coming weeks, there could be a driver with a higher WPA than the driver leading the point standings that week. That will be a driver to watch as the second half of the NeSmith Performance Parts Street Stock Division season unfolds.

The Chevrolet Performance 602 Crate Engine is in stock and available for $3,195.00 with free next day delivery anywhere in the Southeast from NeSmith Chevrolet in Claxton, GA.
