    Turn 4 : Should be looking out for the Waltrip Gang!
    Dave Blaney, although very good, I don't think will finish the race this year.

    The Yota's look good and Mike ran well in Q setup. However, this could be the year for BDR and the 22. Don't sell this Blaney guy too short he has a wealth of knowledge and skill and not to mention he finally has a car along with a real program behind him now.. I would suggest Mr. Blaney odds are very good at the 500 after their 3rd place in Dega last year and not to mention his run in the shoot out.
