NASCAR 2007 - CITIZENS BANK 400 - Michigan

[onlooker]

Michigan International Speedway | Sunday, June 17, 2007 2:00 PM ET

Here are my fantasy five drivers:

Matt Kenseth
Denny Hamlin
Carl Edwards
Ryan Newman
David Ragan

So who do you NASCAR fans like in the race on Sunday?

Onlooker, your team looks pretty good.
I think this race will be a bit different than recent ones. I don't see Hendrick dominating here the way they have been doing.
Hendrick will be strong as usual, but this should be a successful race for Roush/Fenway. I think Edwards and Kenseth are must-haves on any team. I'm giving a hard look at Biffle as well. Although he's had a disappointing season thus far, he has a great record here and his practice times have been very good.
Hamlin looks to have the best Gibbs car, and I think Harvick will be the best from RCR.
For a middle-tier driver, I think Bowyer will also do well, as well as Truex.
As far as bottom tier drivers - I'm not sure what contest you're in but I'm just going on a generality - Ragan seems a decent choice being on the Roush/Fenway team. Brian Vickers is also looking good...if you've got the balls to pick a Toyota!
Michigan is a wide track which usually leads to long, green-flag racing. Fuel mileage usually comes into play here. Roush used to be dominant in that category, although other teams seemed to have closed the gap.

I'm thinkin of taking a shot with Harvick here. I think he's around +1600 right now.

I've got small plays on these two to win:

Newman +800
Biffle +2000

Also taking Hamlin +105 over Truex

Matt Kenseth 42nd
Denny Hamlin 14th
Carl Edwards 1st
Ryan Newman 37th
David Ragan 21st

Picked the winner, but the others did terrible.

Congrats on the Carl Edwards bettors.
