Jimmie Johnson Makes History

You don't have to be a NASCAR fan to appreciate the tremendous accomplishment of Jimmie Johnson and the Lowe's Chevrolet team. Any sports fan will recognize this achievement.

Today they did what no other driver in the 61-year history of NASCAR had ever done before. They completed their 4th consecutive championship. Think about the significance of that.

When every team devotes hours of manpower and research - and money - into developing the best racing team and vehicles that they can, one team has dominated the sport for 4 consecutive years.

The Chicago Bulls won 3 championships in a row. In other sports winning back-to-back is a major feat. Now consider a 4-peat.

There have been many notable drivers in the sport's history. However, they never accomplished this feat. Chad Knaus, Rick Hendrick, Jimmie, and the entire team have accomplished the phenomenal.

By the way, Jimmie just completed his 8th season - meaning he has been the champion for half of his career.

Congratulations and continued success as you go for number 5 next season.
