Daytona?

Anyone care to make a prediction for Daytona. I have a hard time choosing anyone but Stewart. Johnson's my driver but I've seen him spin out or wreck someone else on the last few laps too many times at plate tracks. I hope the DEI and Childress cars are able to run up front because they make the plate tracks alot more interesting.

Any former weekend thunder fans here? I would have to "Thunder Jinx" Greg Biffle for the 500. The last Subway commercial with the "fresh toasted sandwiches" is a little to disturbing.

They do seem to have trouble staying with one another.Nobody other than teammates will draft with the 24 which says alot about him and the team.

Plate racing is one of those deals if you can avoid the big one you got a shot at winning.A perfect example is the 88 winning the fall Terrordega
race.

My predictions:

Stewart holds of the Gordon and Harvick for the win (Harvick wins the Busch race though)

Jonhson and Junior both cause big wrecks, Junior being overaggressive, Johnson coming up in front of someone without enough space

Kahne doesn't make it to lap 50

Jarret drives around a half lap down the whole race and ends up in the top 10
