Headin' to 'Dega

I've been in Virginia with the KSU Formula SAE Team, so I haven't had much time to give to my site. However, I'm really hoping to be home in time to watch the Talladega race. So, I'll cut to the chase and give you my picks!

1. #29 - It was released earlier this week, after this race Todd Berrier will be moved to RCR's 07 team of Casey Mears; I think Harvick and Berrier will be able to visit Victory lane once more before ending a rather long run together.
2. #14 - Tony Stewart has been fast, and he's good at restrictor plate tracks; if he can stay out of other's messes, He should pose a strong challenge for the lead.
3. #24 - He's dominated this track before, several times, and there is a good possibilty he can extend his points lead this weekend.
4. #88 - It's been a while. I have a hunch he'll be back up front
5. #18 - Last year's winner anyone?
6. #48 - All Hendrick and Roush powered cars should be strong, so the Reigning Champ should be up there by the end of the day.
7. #42 - If he can control himself and show patience he should be a contender throughout the day.
8. #33 - The Cheerios team has started to stumble, Talladega could be where they regain some solid ground.
9. #99 - LIke I said, Roush-Yates power.
10. #96 - He's good, he's Bobby Labonte.
