6. Grant Enfinger, 2,011 points
If you’re looking for a driver who made absolutely no noise early in the year, outside of a runner-up finish to Chase Briscoe at Eldora (Ohio) Speedway in July, then Grant Enfinger is your man. He almost silently went about his business in the regular season, racking up 12 top 10s in 16 races and finishing third in regular-season points to Sauter and Gragson.
He’s been inside the top 10 for six-straight races – the third-longest streak in the series, currently – and has the second-best average finish among all full-time drivers this year. That’s the kind of consistency that might allow Enfinger to go rounds in the playoffs.
