Whew, getting all of this stuff under the wire this weekend. It’s a holiday weekend here in Canada so please excuse me on my tardiness.
Open Race Thread: NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Hollywood Casino 400 | Kansas Speedway
It looks like its going to be a great day for racing, let’s just hope that the Chasers feel the same way at the end of the day.
My pick to win is Jeff Gordon, while my dark horse is The Biff. Look for Jimmie Johnson and Tony Stewart to have good runs too.
Starting line-up is after the jump. See you on the other side.
