Kyle Busch's chances to win the Chase

They're not good. Neither is Kyle Busch's attitude about how the Chase started.
After winning eight races before the NASCAR Chase for the Sprint Cup began, Busch had two bad races to start the Chase and dropped from first to 12th in the Cup standings.
In the most recent race at Dover International Speedway, he blew an engine and finished in 43rd and last place.
Before qualifying for the Cup race at Kansas Speedway on Friday, Busch was asked about what happened in Dover.
"We blew up and now we're behind," he said.
His answers were short and sharp. He knows the possibility of catching the leaders -- Carl Edwards, Greg Biffle and Jimmie Johnson -- in the standings are not good.
"Here's how I look at it," Busch said. "You can't count on anybody else having a bad race. So, realistically, yeah we are out of it. If they do have a bad race -- then it depends on who has the bad race and how bad the race is and stuff -- for us to get back in it. Realistically, if you are not counting on those guys having a bad race -- we can't win eight races in a row and have Carl or Biffle finish fifth through 10th every single one of those and still win the deal. That ain't going to happen."
Busch was asked if he prescribed to the philosophy that drivers have to lose a championship before they can win one.
"I've been in the Chase -- this is my third year now," Busch said. "So, technically I've already lost two. I've been in this series -- I think this is my fourth year -- so I've lost it three times. So, I think I've lost enough."
He was also asked, regardless of how he finishes, about how he will reflect on his season and if it will be sour.
"I think the biggest thing we'll remember is the eight wins and the places that the came at -- being all various different race tracks," Busch said. "The overall success of the year -- being able to win 19 races overall.
"Really we weren't supposed to be in the position we've been in to win the championship. This was supposed to be the building year the learning year -- getting used to everything at Joe Gibbs Racing, and Toyota coming on board and getting a relationship going with Steve Addington (crew chief). So, you can't look at it as a sour year."
