That's because God is a Horse racing fan and he says there is only one race in Kentucky.

He adds a Kentucky win to his resume this Saturday night. :D

It's not just the current schedule It's every track he's point raced on in cup, except Kentucky, not just the current schedule.
 
Tire Notes.....

While teams in all three NASCAR series in action at Kentucky this week will run the same right-side tire code (D-4440), teams in the Sprint Cup Series will run a slightly different left-side code (D-4556) than those in the Nationwide and Camping World Truck Series . . . this is the same combination of left- and right-side tires that Sprint Cup teams have run at Kentucky since 2012 . . . these teams have also run this same tire set-up at Dover over that same period of time . . . Goodyear held a test at Kentucky on May 20-21 . . . .Sprint Cup teams and drivers participating in that test were the No. 1 Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet with Jamie McMurray, No. 2 Penske Racing Ford with Brad Keselowski and No. 55 Michael Waltrip Racing Toyota with Brian Vickers . . . as on all NASCAR ovals greater than one mile in length, teams are required to run inner liners in all four tire positions at Kentucky . . . air pressure in those inner liners should be 12-25 psi greater than that of the outer tire.
 
So same question different week...who's gonna win this week? 4, 24, 48? 88 and 2 should be fast. JGR is out to lunch lately so who knows what to expect from those guys. Can't wait to watch Sunday afternoon after our monthly rain delay;)
