I wouldn't put any money on that list 

[Telvis]

Put all of those names in a hat. Toss out Dale Jr.....then start pulling out names and make a list. You probably have a better chance of getting it right.

[RD]

no kidding.  there is no way to assess the viability of the competition way this early.  not when there are only 3 major components to racing:  car, driver, and pit crew. (fundamentally speaking).

[NHCharger]

I agree with Telvis, unless they have 36 restrictor plate races this year. Oh wait, Jr. now sucks at the plates races too.

[hemihead]

You mean Jr. isn't Nascar's favorite son anymore?

[70charginglizard]
