I just made my picks but after doing that and looking over what the others here picked, I just wanted to add this:

As a matter of personal policy, when I make my weekly predictions, I try to avoid looking at the other people's picks first simply because frankly, I want my picks to be 100% mine! Having said that, I noticed that this week in particular, Tony Stewart has been picked by a BUNCH of people... to finish SECOND!

Guess what? I betcha he wins the race!!! Just a hunch... I'm not changing my picks but I find this phenomenon quite surprising!

I do the same thing: post my picks before I look at what others said.

And I agree (ref my picks this week), Tony will win, not run 2nd.
