Here are my picks for the Auto Club 400 at Auto Club Speedway, on March 22, at 3:30 pm ET on FOX
Contenders
Kurt Busch– Jamie McMurray said it best on twitter in saying,
“The 41 and 4 are in another league right now”.
After a strong showing last week Kurt is on the right track and has been fast all weekend. Look for him and teammate Kevin Harvick to battle it out this weekend.
Kyle Larson– Larson is a guy who can find speed by being able to race two grooves and adjust throughout the race. Winning is first Xfinity series race here last year, wouldn’t it be something to see him pull his first Sprint Cup race a year later?
Kyle Larson Returns To Auto Club Speedway To Defend Win
Last season, Kyle Larson showed signs of mastery in the closing laps of the NASCAR XFINITY Series race at Auto Club Speedway. The young driver made daring passes in the last laps and fended off the pursuits of veterans Kevin Harvick and Kyle Busch to claim his first ever series victory and in turn thrust himself into the NASCAR limelight.

Yes, the best car won Sunday’s CampingWorld.com 500 at Phoenix International Raceway — but one-man juggernaut Kevin Harvick had to hold off charging Jamie McMurray on the final restart with 12 laps left to notch his fourth straight victory at the one-mile track.
The box score will show that the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champ led 224 of 312 laps, but McMurray took his best shot on the Lap 301 restart, driving hard to the inside of the race winner and, for the briefest of moments, clearing Harvick’s No. 4 Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolet off Turn 2.
