Michigan WINNER!

[cloverleaf]

Kyle Busch and Denny Hamlin won the races at Michigan International Speedway last year, with Hamlin also taking the checkered flag at the track in the June race at Michigan back in 2010. Mark Martin has five career Cup wins at Michigan, while Jeff Gordon, Greg Biffle, Ryan Newman, Kurt Bush, Matt Kenseth and Carl Edwards two each. Kevin Harvick, Tony Stewart, Kasey Kahne, Dale Jr., and Brian Vickers have all won once at the big track.

My pick to win at Michigan is Kyle Busch. After two consecutive races with blown engines, I lean toward strong motivation for both driver and team to win this one. My pick....welcome yours?

I'm going Hamlin and Stewart. Strictly a stats bet, no gut at all.

Both are top 10 drivers right now
Both have 3 wins on interm. tracks since Feb 2010 (most besides Jimmie)
Both are in the top 3 avg finish ranking in Michigan since Feb 2010.

Mr. H, it would be hard to make a case against either Hamlin or Smoke.

Tony has struggled some of late but you never can count him out.

Denny has a pretty strong record of finishing first the past two years on this track.
