Alright fellas we are headed to MICHIGAN International Speedway this weekend, and also have a weekend triple-header on tap..The truck series will be racing at Texas motor speedway on Friday night on FS1 at 9pm, the Xfinity series will be on Saturday at 1:30PM on FOX, and we will finish up with the CUP series race on Sunday on FOX at 2PM...Next weekend will be an Off weekend for the series for fathers day weekend...
MICHIGAN is a 2 mile D-shaped asphalt oval...The banking in all the turns is 18 degrees, 12 degrees at the start/finish line section, and just 5 degrees of banking on the backstretch...This racetrack is very wide and can have many different grooves, but just like Pocono it can be single file racing but have a feeling PJ1 will be used this week...Tire wear is a HUGE factor at MIS and being 2 miler strategy and pit stops can and usually play a factor.
Look for mostly the same cast of drivers we have seen all year be the sane favs this week so probably have to get creative to have more than 2 of them but with 2 races before cup we will have our chances...Kyle busch usually isnt been very good here historically though...
GOODLUCK this week!!!
