Is the start of "Silly Season" here? The rumors are flying and the big one is that Steve Park will be let go from DEI after this weeks race at Richmond or even this week. It is also rumored that he will be replaced by Christian Fittipaldi if a deal can be made. Second choice will be Michael Wallace. I hate to toot my own horn but, I have picked the winner for the last 3 races correctly :) So without further delay here I go for 4 in a row. My pick to win the race this week is Bobby Labonte. This is probably my toughest pick in the last month. His teammate Tony Stewart will be tough to beat here. We all know that Dale jr. has been the best since week 3 and he will run in the front again this week. Look for Matt Kennseth and Mark Martin to be the best Roush drivers for this week. Sorry Mr. Busch but you really seem to struggle here. Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson are only average at Richmond so I don't put a lot of stock in them this week. Ryan Newman finished 2nd here in both races last year but seems to be having a terrible year for luck. Rusty Wallace will be a top 10 driver again this week. Ward Burton is probably one of the most consistent drivers at Richmond and shoud have a good run here also. My dark horses for the week are Ricky Craven and Dave Blaney and my rookie of the week is going to be Greg Biffle. As always you may contact me with any questions or comments by clicking the link.
