for all u non 88 fans...

Dale jrs fastest in practice!

 

And every car faster than Jr was in a qualifying trim...... Junior made all race runs

 

Yep they were Hmmm another run away like michigan for dale jr?? Its good to see hes still "in" the hunt...
Watchn nationwide Qualifying now. In anticipation of Cup Qualifying.

Ithink im gonna change my 3rd pick for tomorrow from stewart to kenseth! Hes ready to put the exclamation point on his move to a new team!

 

I think Kenseth was searching a little bit in practice.... as were all the Ford's, really, Petty and Roush. These flatter 1.5's just don't suit the Ford's like the higher banked ones do.

 

Do I want to swap my two MWR Toyotas for a pair of Hendrick Chevrolets?

 

Junior didn't quite have enough for the pole, but I think I'll keep my picks...

 

Gonna go with the tried and true.

Harvick
Dale Jr.
