Any predictions on which one of us will be the champion this year? I seriously doubt I will 3 peat. I have a feeling that the new guys, Bookman and PitPup will be strong contenders.

I hope I am up there. Not sure how this cap thing is going to work out. I am already disapointed that I could not get plain old Bookman as my handle. Every site I go on except this one already has some donkey named bookman. Too many geeks out there I guess.

Scott, I am holding off on my lineup till after the 150's as well, but I don't think you can go wrong with DEI this race. You know which one of the Jr's to pick lol.

Mike, I got burned last year on DEI starting out with Daytona. It pretty much hindered me the rest of the season because I got behind. Thats why I am leary this year, but now that Dale has his old team back, I have more confidence, but there are still other restrictor plate "greats" out there as well.

I just hope my boy does not get wrecked tomorrow rcing for nothing. The twins used to be great but now that the top 35 from last year get in anyway it's lost some of it's luster......

But heck I am still taking a half day off tomorrow anyway. Another great excuse to drink beer......

The 150s will determine the starting lineup (not first row, and provisionals) for the the 500. It's the only race in which this type of qualifying takes place.

Yup. jr got me a ton of $$ the 2004 season. Now that he's back from a bad season, im expecting him to be fired up and hopefully do really well. I doubt I stick with Truex Jr much this season though, maybe just restrictor plates.
