I think you are close. Smoke will win three races this year.

All sound good except for John Andretti winning the 600. He will be racing in the Indy 500 that day and will not be there.
 
Told you no research lol(although I remebered that now). Switch Andretti with someone else. I have to predict him to win one, I love Taco Bell. Switch him and David Reutimann around.
 
Ragan's gonna win one. Reutimann's gonna win one. Ambrose will win on the road courses. Juan Pablo's gonna get a win. And I wouldn't count out Scott Speed at Pocono or on the road courses.

I'd LOVE to see Andretti get a win.

He'd be a good pick for Martinsville, if they intend to bring decent cars.
 
I wished Childress would drop Mears and hire Truex. Mears sucks.

picking andretti is still a long shot, but i think your chase predictions are spot on based on this first 1/3 of the year.
 
Richmond Top Ten:
1. Martin Truex, Jr.
2. Brian Vickers
3. Joey Logano
4. David Gilliand
5. Jimmie Johnson
6. Carl Edwards
7. Jeff Gordon
8. Kyle Busch
9. Tony Stewart
10. Kurt Busch
 
Another prediction, this time as to who will run the #34 the two races that Andretti will miss.

I could see Aric Almirola running one or both, Stephen Leicht, Brad Keselowski possibly at Lowes(since he is running the #25 at Darlington), or even the remote possibity Bryan Clauson. I think Almirola is the strongest possibility though.
 
Richmond Top Ten:
1. Martin Truex, Jr.
2. Brian Vickers
3. Joey Logano
4. David Gilliand
5. Jimmie Johnson
6. Carl Edwards
7. Jeff Gordon
8. Kyle Busch
9. Tony Stewart
10. Kurt Busch

I don't know how ANYONE could ever pick your top 4:rolleyes:

And I am doing it for fun, not a serious endeavor. Predicting a winner let alone a top 10 is virtually impossible to do incorrectly.

I'll put up 100 bucks, that will no happan
 
Vickers is quitely having a good year whether people want to give him the credit or not. His pit crew screwed him out of a win at Atlanta, he was probably a top 5 car at Richmond if he didnt miss the pit(came back from 30th and a lap down to back as high as 11th), being part of the big one at Daytona and finishing 39th, having to start at the back of the field at Fontana after winning the poll, etc. Currently 16th, but 70 points is all that separates him from the 10th place Ryan Newman(for example).
 
he was probably a top 5 car at Richmond if he didnt miss the pit(came back from 30th and a lap down to back as high as 11th),
He was a friggin' roadblock at Richmond. Between him and the three Penske drivers, they hit everything but the damn pace car. :rolleyes:
 
I already admitted that in the Bonehead thread. However, they must of got his car right on the 2nd to last pit stop because he finished very strong.
