Well, Mark Martin said he'd win the race, but I don't beleive him.
So I'll make my picks:
The Win: Greg Biffle. He's run passably well here in the past, and
he's about due to have a good race.
Best Chevy: Jimmie Johnson will come home first for Chevrolet.
Best Dodge: Seemed like the Evernham cars showed well in quals,
so I'll pick Elliott Sadler, who's also due for a good race, to
be the top Dodge.
Best Toyota: Well, based on the season to date this'd be Kyle
Busch. But this is Indy, the one track that really matters to
Tony Stewart. So I'll be contrary and pick the 3rd Gibbs car,
and select Denny Hamlin for top Toyota.
Best Rookie: I'll go with Sam Hornish, who at least knows his
way around the track pretty well.
Story: Seemed like Marcus Ambrose & crew figured something out
between practice & quals. I'll pick Marcus to finish worse than
20th, and better than 30th.

A point! Congrats to the #48 pit crew on a winning effort.

Another point! Congrats to his pit crew too (and to Elliott,
who, in the few laps of green flag racing that actually happened,
was able to gain some spots).

Yet another point! Congrats to his pit crew too.

Edged out by Carpentier by a place or two, I guess the #10 pit
crew was a little quicker on the day.

Wow, another point! A fine 22nd place finish, especially good
for a new team & pit crew.
