Joey Logano is in an enviable place.

Seven others will duel for the last three spots on the oldest and shortest circuit in the premier series. Passing was difficult in the spring and contact is a given. It figures to be moreso with the highest of stakes on the line. Logano says he’s happy not to be in the desperate shoes of others.
