I'm thinking that eventually you will hit the jackpot with that pick. He's getting closer and closer every week!

Just remember, in several weeks when the races at Infineon and Watkins Glen are run you can't use that prediction. :)

BTW, I saw this on Jayski, thought it was pretty funny. I think I need to get some pine scent air freshner for my commute home:


Air Freshner in a race car, less anger: With short-track Richmond International Raceway being the next stop on the NASCAR Nextel Cup circuit, don’t be surprised to see Scott Riggs piloting his race machine around the 0.75-mile track with an AroMetrics air freshener hanging from the roll cage. In a recently released study, drivers were found to be more alert and experienced less fatigue when the scent of pine was added to the car interior. The study also revealed that drivers demonstrated a decreased level of anger [hmm.. maybe Kurt Busch, Michael Waltrip and Jeff Green can get some air freshners] and improved overall driving performance when exposed to strawberry and pine scents. “It’s amazing that something as simple as a smell can make a difference while you’re driving,” offered Riggs, who will be behind the wheel of a specially designed AroMetrics/Valvoline Chevrolet in this weekend’s Chevy American Revolution 400. “Imagine what a nice clean race we could have if everyone had AroMetrics in the car.” The researchers at Wheeling Jesuit University (Wheeling, W.Va.) who conducted the study, used a car simulator, exposing participants to pine and strawberry scents, and monitoring driving tendencies, including lane tracking, speed, collisions, and reaction times, as well as behavioral factors such as alertness, fatigue, anger and overall performance. The study used AroMetrics’ new Auto Fragrance System air fresheners as the method of dispensing the scent in the simulated car environment.(

3. Rusty Wallace
Rusty's got to win one this year. I'm completely guessing from a bad memory, but doesn't he usually do well in Richmond?

Yes.

#8 needs a break though
#15 needs a rebound
#2 so close yet so far away
#29 needs another strong run
#23 will surprise

Rusty does well on all short tracks, I wouldn't mind seeing Rusty or Martin win this weekend.

I think that Athlon Sports predicted that Rusty would do well in this race. Now that he's relieved a little stress and frustration by rolling Tony Danza, he should be focused for Saturday night! :)

Rusty does have 6 wins at Richmond, but only 1 top 10 in the last 6 races at Richmond. I am a big Jeff Gordon fan but I am pulling for Rusty to win atleast 1 race this season before he retires.

Ditto on both! Mrs 89 made my son's two year old birthday cake in a car cake pan and I iced it in Rusty's colors. I'll have to try to find a picture of it.
