Dale Earnhardt Jr. 2011 performance?

Whether you like Dale Jr. or not that fact of the matter is that the 88 team is certainly performing very well at this point in the 2011 Sprint Cup season. Now obviously there is a lot of racing left. However at this point it seems as if 3 or 4 wins is reachable this year for Jr. based on the way they're running. And let's face it, all you have to do to be a threat in the Chase is finish consistently in the top 10 or so and avoid DNFs. If he were to make the Chase and run like he is now who's to say he wouldn't finish in the top 3. I'd love you hear your opinion.
