RPG - Doover - McCoy
10am - gotta do this quick like, to get it in on time...
The Win: well, I haven't had any success picking the pole sitter
to win this year, and I haven't had any success picking Biffle to
win either. But I'll do both again, and pick Greg Biffle to win.
1) top Chevy - this is always a hard one, with so many good Chevy
teams. I'll got out on a limb this week and pick Martin Truex as
best Chevy finisher, since he tends to run this track well.
2) top Dodge - I'm tempted to go with Mayfield, who's had an
excellent record on this track, but I think it'd be a little too
much for a one-off ride in an unfamiliar car. So I'll chose
Kasey Kahne to continue his hot streak.
3) top Toyota - this is a very easy track to run into something,
or be run into by someone, or both. So I'm thinking Rowdy Busch
likely won't finish well. I'll pick Denny Hamlin for top Toyota.
4) top rookie - this is a very tough track for rookies, and they
didn't hardly get any practice in race trim. I'll go with Regan
Smith to get the least damage and the best finish.
5) top story - Mayfield brings home a T20 finish for the #41
car, it's first one all year.

Well, he had the best car early, but they couldn't change to keep
up with the track, it seemed.

I claim MVM points! Only missed being best Chevy by one place.

Turned out to be JPM. Nice recovery after a couple of tough weeks.

Couldn't have gotten that one more wrong.

Missed by a couple of places. Good run for Hornish.

25th. Best finish for that car this year, I think, but not
quite a T25.

I was under the vague impression that Mr Random was refusing
to offer up any more numbers.

We had scored 13 when we quit.
It seems like a nice stopping point.
Stuff got busy here in the last month. When
you're in Buffalo some time, I will inflict
all of the details on you, with slideshows
and without mercy. :o)
