Is it going to be someone obvious like Kenseth or a relative long shot like Vickers?

I'm going with Kahne. I thought he was going to get his last weekend.

Who's your next winless driver to win a race?
 
Josh Wise. no just kidding can't rig the voting on a win. I think it will be Kennseth but would love to see the 78 and Truex get one.

Kenseth's running too good not to get one eventually. I'd say he's next.

Kenseth is finishing well, but he is not a top 3 car right now. If I had to go out on a limb, I might suggest that Vickers wins before Matt. Think New Hampshire. IMO MWR has had more outright speed than JGR. I will always favor speed over racing luck.

MWR has won the last two Sonoma races, so Bowyer's a possibility there.
 
Stewart. He doesnt care anymore. History as shown that drivers who dont care, win.
 
Kenseth has been up front consistently. I look for him to win next of the winless contenders. Then I'd say Kahne, Biffle, Vickers or Newman in no particular order.

Newman and Vickers are some of those drivers who can just randomly pull off a win or two.
 
Kenseth and Larson! Hey, Larson has a better chance than Silver Spoon Dillion.
 
Seems like Matt and the 20 guys have been making some substantial progress with their setup during the races. I expect them to get it all together at some point.
The new car has thrown a few curves at some really good teams.
 
Kenseth is due, and I think Jamie Mac will win a points race soon

Wondering if Chad Johnston was the right choice as CC. My bold prediction was that one SHR CC would be gone by season's end. He is my leader in the clubhouse with Zippy waiting to take over in the interim.

Old Smolder has changed CC's more often than some folks brush there teeth. I don't know if Zippy can bring the fire back but Smolder needs to take a long hard look at "WTF" is going on, Hell, Danica has a better showing this year so far!!!!................

If you're a Stewart fan, then you should be used to this. He always starts off slowly and heats up over the summer, he'll be fine. Also I'll give you a cookie to quit saying smolder

I've followed Smolder since his IRL day's and quite Frankly, Shirley, you can use your ignore button. To the casual NASCAR fan slow starts to the season have always been his trait, this is not of the norm and if you can't see that this isn't just a slow start it's a slump, then I have no clue of what you are watching.
 
This is a crucial stretch of the season for Kenseth. The way he's running in the top 5-10 (like in 2003), instead of up front like last year, his chances coming up will be:

Dover (but he's 27th in practice)
Michigan (two races in summer)
Kentucky (won there last year)
Daytona

and honestly, that may be it until fall. There's a chance he could need a win at Bristol to get a guaranteed spot. Good thing he's running so well in points.

No chance at Pocono, Glen, Indy, Loudon, etc...
