Spin and win

Look back at Tony Stewart's victory at Watkins Glen in 2007, when he recovered from his early mishap and Jeff Gordon didn't have time to do the same.

Great to see some other making some picks! Making picks makes the race more fun for everybody, even if your picks are wild guesses. seal0716's picks seem pretty solid, but I don't remember reading 'Space's in all that reporting...

I, however, do not think the choke artists Peblo or Ambrose will succeed today. I half expect them to take each other out. They will be guys to watch, but I'm picking AJ to be the one to "break through" today. He qualified fantastic and after signing a multi-year deal this week, he is now the official flagship driver of RPM. Martin is solid on this track, being the only to win 3 in a row at the Glen. That was a long time ago, but they say statistically it is his best track - he should be good for points today if not the win. But I'm thinking it the other Hendrick guuy that's going to win today for a few reasons. He is well overdue and really good here. Also, my buddy Donna from this and the Jeff Gordon Monte Carlo forum was just made Jeff Gordons official fan of the month! I'll show this off for her here! Donna is pictured with her badass Jeff Gordon Edition Monte Carlo. How can Jeff lose now?

1. Jeff Gordon
2. Mark Martin
3. AJ Allmendinger

1st caution: Dale Jr. (its gonna be a long day)
# of cautions: 12
last: Michael MacDowell (10th the yeasterdays Nationwide race!)
