Gordon’s Numbers Gaudy At Kansas

This Jeff Gordon guy is pretty good.

Every week, it seems like the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series travels to a track where Gordon has posted some hefty numbers.

This week is no different.  The No. 24 Chevrolet driver’s statistics at Kansas Speedway – site of Saturday’s SpongeBob SquarePants 400 are downright gaudy. Gordon boasts a track record with three wins. Additionally, he claims ten top-fives in 18 starts at the 1.5-mile track – a whopping 55.6 percent. Continue reading →

Here is my preview and fantasy picks for the Sprint Cup Series’ SpongeBob SquarePants 400 at Kansas Speedway on Saturday, May 9th.

Contenders

Joey Logano – Very fast race car and is again on the pole, needs to keep his speed and be able to keep up with the track throughout the race though, which has been his achilles heel all season. 

Jimmie Johnson – Has been relatively streaky so far this yeas but you really can’t count him out, especially on a mile and half race track. With wins at Atlanta and Texas already I think he will be a serious contender tonight.  Continue reading →

Busch-Gibson Combo Morphing Into Championship Contenders

Many predicted this. Dating all the way back to his championship season of 2004, Richmond winner Kurt Busch had excelled with a crew chief who could be defined as ‘old school’ – one who made decisions with a healthy mix of modern engineering smarts and plain old gut. Continue reading →

Here is my Preview and Fantasy Picks for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Geico 500 at Talladega Superspeedway

Contenders

Jeff Gordon – Has an absolute rocket of a race car this weekend and I do think he will win if he can stay up front and out of trouble.Problem is, I don’t see that happening. 

Brad Keselowski – Both Penske cars are on a roll when it comes to restrictor plate racing. Keselowski won at Talladega in the fall and Logano won the Daytona 500 this year. Just personally have a good feeling about Keselowski this weekend. Continue reading →
