What will happen when the WC returns to Watkins Glen this sunday, August 10th?

Will Jeff Gordon return to his once dominating ways on the road courses?

Will Boris Said or another "specialist" win it?

Will Rusty Wallace finally break his winless streak? Rusty has about as many road course victories as anybody does.

Will someone totally out of the blue win it?
 
Ward Burton will win it...I just have a feeling this time...maybe that feeling is him leaving BDR after this week though...
 
Robby Gordon is the clear favorite for the win at the Glen. He has had the dominant car the past 3 years only to have some mishaps happen (bad pit stop, camera fire, etc). Robby is clearly the favorite to win. Would be fun to see a Gordon Gordon battle at the end though.
 
Well, after see the first RC race of the year... I'm going with either Kevin or Robby. Both was dominant at Infineon, so lets hope that spills over into NY.
 
I say that the Gordons are a safe bet for the win, But i think Robby will make it 2 in a row on the RC. Harvick could make it 2 in a row as well, he ran good at SearsPoint
 
Dare I say it?? Jeff and Robby fighting it out with Jeff getting the checkers!

Robby getting the checkers? Of course. I knew you would always come around to the good side. :lol:

If anyones gonna win it, it's going to be Kevin Harvick, he's goin to keep up that hot streak. I think the win at the Brickyard just heated up that flame within the boys... rear.
 
Ron Fellows. He ran really good at Sears Point before getting messed up on pit stops and being spun out by Mayfield. He's much better at Watkins Glen than Sears Point, although Robby will give him a fight and Boris should be strong also.
 
The road course king,Jeff Gordon,leads most laps on way to victory,might well get His 6th pole here also ;) :D
 
It will probably come down to the Gordon's battling for the win, hopefully Jeff can make up a few points :cheers:
 
I think you are all wrong ;) I think Tony is going to win it of course. He's going to still be ticked that he only finished 12th at the brickyard and he's just going to blow everyone else away. Let's hope that's how it works. Anyone except Robby PLEASE!

Dee Dee...How did I know you would pick Tony? :p
Just a lucky guess I think. ;) ^_^
 
Rusty Wallace i hope so he can stop his whining about not winning

No way that will ever happen! :lol: Rusty whining, that is! :D
 
I'm going with robby for the win but look for jeff,kevin,boris,and ron to battle top 5 all day.
 
I don't think the hired guns are going to win, so will lean more to the 2 Gordons having the best chances. Harvick and Steward are good and unless they have bad luck should get good finishes.
 
Well,if one goes with the Chevy guys,Robby,Tony and Jeff seem to have the best chances.However,Mark Martin and Biffle tested and were fastest there last week....I will say Greg is going to surprise everyone and win it.

Biffle would be a good bet. Biffle got some very good training by Robby. Biffle and Robby are very good friends and while they were testing Robby let Biffle shadow him around the track for a little, seems to have helped Biffle.

Now that we are on the subject of this, a little story: last year at Watkins Glen during practice Matt Kenseth was trying to shadow Robby around the track, and around a particular turn (I forgot which one) Matt almost spun out trying to follow Robby's line. Reiser came on the radio and said, "What the hell are you doing?" Matt replied, "Im trying to follow his line." Reiser replied, "Dont do the crazy stuff Robby does." Funny stuff.
 
Robby is without doubt a lot more accomplished driver than he has ever been able to show in WC.I have watched him since before he even drove for Yates those few races years ago...the guy has car control that is almost unmatched.If I was going to learn from one of the best on a RC,I would follow Robby too.

Anyway,here's to a good race. :cheers:
 
One of these guys will win:
Jeff Gordon
Robby Gordon
Tony Stewart
Ron Fellows

How do I know?......Miss Cleo told me.
