Tough race to pick####can you avoid the "big one"? The usual big wreck that just may scramble your score to the upper stratosphere###
What about fuel strategy? Tires? GOOD LUCK!
OK! I am ready to pick###
My 'Dega picks are:
J Johnson <~~ Always seems to be hanging around####
Kyle Busch <~~ His string of spring race victories was broken at Richmond last week###he'll be bouncing back at "Deaga###
B Kezelowski<~~~ Speaking of strings###he'll be going for 2 in a row here###
JR!! <~~~ Back in my good graces after a 10th place finsh last week### I REALLY think he's top 3 bound ###
K Kahne <~~~ I haven't picked the #5 in a looooooooooong time###I have a hunch###
My spare will be T Stewart####almost a third of the season gone and he's 22nd in the point standings? Something not right###
