NASCAR: Examining the Ford 400 Expert Picks

Three weeks in a row, I managed to pick the winner of the race. My guess is with the way the chase was going it was a bit easier to pick the winner of this race. Great way to end the season. Carl Edwards just flat out dominated on the day and won another race on fuel. In traffic though he was not all that hot though.

Jimmie Johnson did pit late, but he was playing it safe and I can't blame him. He finished the day in 15th spot which is not bad.  He did lead some laps to help out his scoring though.

David Ragan just did not have the fuel mileage Carl did. He was right up in the top three at the end of the race before his gas ran out  Really stunk. He was a top five car for a good portion of the race.

Jamie McMurray got lucky with a long green flag run late to him back up to his third place standing. He stayed in the top ten for most of the race.

Greg Biffle just did not have it after he wound up getting a pit road speed violation during his first pit stop.  He battled back to an 18th place spot which is not bad. Could have had a top ten finish, in my opinion, without the penalty.

A.J. Allmendinger started in the back, but he was able to move up and stay on the lead lap. He had good pit strategy on the day which helped him get an 11th place finish. He did very well with the fantasy scoring for a C list driver though.

Aric Almirola started in the back that was not good for him and then bringing out the first caution of the day put him into an even bigger mess. I really thought the #8 car would continue to have great finishes in the 2008 season, but it did not happen in the final race.

Up sometime next week will be my biggest and final piece of the 2008 NASCAR season.
