Raceday in Texas

It's Raceday here in Texas and it sure is windy. I think it will be a factor in the race if it keeps up! It has been a beautiful weekend here, so the Cup guys got in a lot of practice. One surprise was the 00 of David Reutimann getting the pole. The Michael Waltrip Racing team has been pretty strong this season, except for Michael Waltrip. Reutimann and Marcos Ambrose are both well within the top 35 in points. Today's race should be under sunny skies with long green runs. (Sometimes long, green runs are considered a sign of unhealthy eating habits, but that's a story for another day.)
Yesterday, Kyle Busch dominated the Nationwide race leading 178 of the 200 laps. He won from the pole position. That was the first time that has happened here at Texas Motor Speedway. He is unstoppable in Nationwide. And I imagine that he'll be a huge factor in the final standings today in Cup.
My predictions for today's race:
3). Kyle Busch
2). Greg Biffle
1). Carl Edwards
Have a great raceday!
