New Bud Shootout Format...Can Robby make it?

The announcement came today that the new format for the Bud Shootout will be the top 6 teams from each manufacturer will qualify. (No more pole sitters, so much for winning a pole anymore)

As of today, Robby is 429 points behind Bobby Labonte. Can he race his way in?

Mathmatically yes. He would need to gain an average of 36 points per race over Labonte to catch him with 12 races to go. That's 12 spots per race or 10 spots ahead if he lead a lap in each race and Labonte didn't.

Better idea, he can switch to Toyota, have better manufacturers support and will automatically beat POS
