I find it hilarious when people miss me! I'm on here everyday - I swear! But sometime I only have time to read. I start typing and the baby interferes and it turns into a fight. Eventually I post nothing, but I miss nothing either.
Duane has some harsh, and presumably unpopular words about Harvick! I'm not a big fan, but mostly cuz I figured he was sackless since Peblo punked him out at Watkins Glen years ago. He's never done anything to change my mind since. I also think he is luckier than good. Those ECR engines all looked good in qualifying, so this has got to be the week for RCR to turn it around.
I'm not convinced Toyota will do bad. Good qualifying - Hamlin has apparently turned a corner. But he might blow up. I'm not picking Logano again. He really blew it for me last week.
If there is one race to miss this year, this one will be my pick. California (Fontana, not Infineon) sucks. I'd be surprised if anything interesting happens, or if I can stay awake for the whole thing. Vegas was boring?- you ain't seen nothing yet! But Martin does well at boring races. Junior does not.
No picks quite yet. I haven't watched your video yet either Duane (I'm at work and shouldn't even be on the forum, let alone uploading youtube). Later I'll make my picks and maybe have less to say...

Alright... some picks. I'm playing it safe this weekend
1. Carl Edwards
2. Jimmie Johnson
3. Mark Martin
A lot of others picked JJ and Carl too.
last: JJ yeley
He didn't even make a qualifying lap. He just had it lined up. This is the first time in many many years where they only had 43 entries. Everybody qualified - nobody went home. JJ Yeley is not here to race this weekend, he's just a place filler
1st caution: Peblo - the usual havoc when he starts up front. But Califonia is so boring, its not unlikely to see no wrecks and only debris cautions all day.
Number of cautions: 5

I had contemplated Edwards instead of Harvick, in which case my picks would have looked exactly like Space's picks. If Space wins, I'm going ot be upset. I was just feeling Harvick would have a better day... I sense a disturbance in the force....
And Brent sure is paying some attention to qualifying and the such... but I want to know where my harsh words for Harvick were, unless he was thinking about Homestead last year! All I said was I thought Harvick, if they had some luck fall their way, would win in California... don't see whats so unpopular about that, unless Brent doens't like Harvick... I did have some harsh words for the speedway itself though.
