Post your predictions for the first and second place finishers at the Dodge Charger 500 Nextel cup race in Darlington. If you are the first to score 1st & 2nd in order, you'll get a permanent upgrade to the member title of your choice. If there's no contest winner, the most impressive guess (provided it's close) gets a 1 month title upgrade.

Bonus style points awarded for the funniest/best reasons for your picks and for listing the best desired member title.

To get the permanent upgrade, your prediction must be in before qualifying begins. We'll take predictions after qualifying but the most you can win on that is a 1 month upgrade.

[3829]

my picks are
#1 Jeff Burton
#2 Biffle

[Gotham Dark Knight]

I am picking #00 Sadler to win and #55 Waltrip to place second.

This is because it will be a very active hurricane season this year...and on back to back active hurricane seasons, it has been statistically proven that double digit numbers with matching digits are the odds on favorite to win sporting contests...looked it up in the book "Odd Facts, Myths and Random Assumptions about Sports (Random House Publishing 1982)"...

Also statistically speaking, Sadler is due... I reason that his failure to qualify last week will only be balanced out by a win this week...to keep the balance of the universe thing going...

...Oh and their cars sort of run really fast too...

So, those are my picks...and I stand by them.

Can I change my vote after qualifying? Or only if my pick don't get in the race?

My reason for picking Biffle is because he is so good, just a bad run of luck...his time has come.
My reason for picking Matty 2nd is because that's basically the story of my life. Always coming in 2nd

I think a good title would be..... Mrs. Kenseth

[Souporscotty]

1. Kenseth 2. Edwards Just because.

[LSC9901]

1st Johnson

2nd Stewart

We really need to designate one place to post our predictions. Can we assume that Ross wil be the official thread starter for our predictions ??

My reason for picking Johnson is because Lyndon Johnson became president on 11/22/1963. 11+22=33 + my age when he became president = 47. If he wins he will be #1. #1 +47=48 "The Winner"

Stewart was my grandfathers middle name and now my brother is Stewart the second. Therefore Stewart will be in 2nd place.

Once again my new moniker will be "Someone Had To Be First"

[Smoke842]

I'm going with who I chose last week.

#1: Stewart
#2: Harvick

Edit: Ross, you still picking the 48?

I'm going with Stewart for first because it's been several weeks sence he has won and with his eagerness I figure it's about time for him to be in victory lane again. He has been very cool the last couple of races. I think he is ready to just say to hell with the rules of bump drafting and go for it.
For second it has to be Dale JR. I just love the man.


1st Stewart

2nd Dale JR.

2nd

[Wampinrock]

1st = Stewart
2nd = Jr

They Be hot!...the rest are not! Darlington puts the stripe on those that gripe...here's to another 24 DNF...Jeff should get to know the "cup" CAN be a spectator sport...(from the garage !!). Let's sit back and let the 20 Smoke-'em !!
