That is what I was thinking re Truex, Newman and Kahne. I didn't pick Ragan, but he has a good chance.

I put him in my top 12. I still believe he's a long shot but anything is possible after 26 races. It's funny, I looked back and I have 3 Gibbs, 3 Hendrick, 3 Roush, and 3 Childress cars in my top 12. somebody else will break in to make it uneven. Maybe Truex, Kurt Busch or Kayne.

[doozer]

Kurt needs to get real hot real fast to make the Chase.

RB , if anyone deserves a shot at that prize it's you man. I dont think most of these race fans are worried about it coming up wrong . JMO

Dont worry about finishing first though , I should have that covered.

Thanks for the thought, I'll think about it by then.

When the green flag drops the bs stops, you'll be saying "there goes rbroyles, the winningest sob on Vol Nation."

[TennFan]

Not that I want who I think will be #1 but I think this will happen unfortunately.
1. Kyle Busch
2. Jeff Burton
3. Dale Jr.
4. Clint Bowyer
5. Tony Stewart
6. Jimmie Johnson
7. Carl Edwards
8. Kevin Harvick
9. Jeff Gordon
10. Ryan Newman
11. Juan Pablo Montoya
12. Kasey Kahne

JPM in the chase? TennFan07 will love that

[doozer]

i picked him too. i don't think he makes it, but i had to make one bold prediction or it wouldn't be any fun.

[rbroyles]

I thought I was going a little bit out on a limb with Truex, but then I realized several of you have him too. I wouldn't bet against JPM making it. Ganassi might be a little more involved once Indy is over.

[d4ster3]

no chance in JPM making it now...

[McLovin]

Better fire the crew chief again. That's the answer.

[doozer]

Matt Kenseth is starting to creep up the standings.

[TennesseeFan07]

Give a call to Bobby Labonte and the RYR drivers. Both are having awesome seasons

[d4ster3]

Give a call... Is that you Larry Mac??
