    Maybe not, but they both are capable of it as are their cars. Labonte is solid for a 15th to 25th I think personally. Sam could crack a top 15 but will need a clean run, which is only 50/50 to happen.

    Thought it was a good matchup for that reason.

    Kansas Results

    No one picked today's winner or second place finisher. Mike predicted 13 cars to finish on the lead lap.

    Mike also picked 5 out of 5, but that wasn't quite good enough to take the prize away from Luvtogamble on 2nd tiebreaker.


    Martin Truex Jr. 2nd v Brad Keselowski 11th
    Sam Hornish Jr. 19th v Bobby Labonte 35th
    Tony Stewart 13th v Mark Martin 33rd
    Jeff Gordon 21st v Carl Edwards 9th
    Kyle Busch 10th v Kasey Kahne 8th

    Winner: Hamlin
    Second: Truex Jr
    Lead lap: 13
