RPG - Joliet - McCoy

Well, having watched the Nationwide race last night, I figure
this may well be one of the most boring races of the year :-(

The Win: Greg Biffle. Practiced decently, altho I suspect that
won't amount to anything. This race is likely to be one of those
"whoever's first off pit road disappears into the distance" deals.

Best Chevy: Jeff Burton. Ran well in the Nationwide cars, if
there's anything to be learned from the track he should benefit.

Best Dodge: Kasey Kahne. He's run respectably on the other
flattish tracks (e.g. Pocono), mebbe that'll carry over to here.

Best Toyota: Kyle Busch. See Burton, above.

Best Rookie: A tossup. I'll go with Hornish, since at least he's
starting a row or two further up.

Story: A T10 finish for David Reutimann, achieved by racing there,
rather than a fluke of pitstop/rain timing.

Some MVM points, maybe? 4th, top Ford...

Nope - lost a lap, got it back, but never ran fast enough to
make it up to the front.

Nope - didn't run good, didn't run bad.

This is becoming a safe bet... +1

None of them ran especially well, but Hornish had some sort of
problem and lost several laps.

Like Kahne, didn't run good, didn't run bad, but didn't quite
make the T10 either.

race: +1
segment: +4
