A= Really, Really Good Pick Kevin Harvick – There’s not a safer pick you can make at Talladega then Kevin Harvick. In April Harvick finished 5th and worked heavily with Clint Bowyer. I expect this duo to work together again and have similar results. Another advantage for Harvick is that he’ll have three teammates who [...]

Time For Some Unfamiliar Faces Up Front First, I would like to thank everyone who commented on last week’s Predictions article as well as those who tweeted it, ‘liked’ it on Facebook, or just simply told a friend to read it. If you’ve been reading these posts all season, you noticed that I changed the [...]

Just like last weekend, the Sprint Cup Series cars were on the track both before and after qualifying this week. On Thursday, there was a practice session followed by qualifying, where Tony Stewart edged out Matt Kenseth for the pole.

On Saturday afternoon, two additional NASCAR had to additional practice sessions for the teams to perfect their race cars for the race on Sunday. By having data from practices that [...]

A= Really, Really Good Pick Jimmie Johnson – Johnson has finished in the top ten in five consecutive Kansas races. Earlier this year he finished 7th and had an average running position of 9.9 despite starting 31st. If qualifying points matter to you Johnson has started in the top 4 in six of his ten [...]

There were two practice sessions on Friday afternoon, but only Happy Hour was televised (reason #3,291 on my list for hating ESPN). The last race at Dover International Speedway was in May earlier this year, and in case you want to compare the average speeds of the drivers that weekend in practice to how they [...]
