Who's your pick California?

[threerivers]

I'm going with the 99. It seems to be a Ford track.

[Big Dave2]

3 out of the last 5 have been Fords but overall Chevys have won just as many races there as fords (6).

I don't know how anyone goes about picking a winner for any race with any consistency but I am going to pick a Hendrick's car to win this week.

[thorski]

I'm goin with the Biff. He's due.

[CARVER_COUNTRY]

Im going to have to go with the number 11 car, Denny Hamlin!

[gregg52]

i'd pick the 18...24...5

[Uncle Bill]

gordini.

[TNFL]

99,48,18,16,11,24 in that order.

[metrojoe]

I'd have to go with the #48

[walleyes12]

#99, or #88

[Sifty]

I'm going with the 2.

Sifty

[Big A]

Mark Martin !

[chippewachuck]

these are the only tracks fords are good on

99

[bottom-bouncer]

Im sticking with the kid #20. sooner or later im bound to be rite

[TNFL]

20

I hope your right, I'm going with him in a salary league on ESPN. I have him locked in at $14.3. by the end of the year, if I stick with him, it may be a steal.

but he killed me last week, in both leagues

[asleson]

17 car two in a row.

[HOF#13]

#18, #99, or #48...How's that for risky picks.

I'd like to see the #88 win, but after last weekend just making a good pit stop this weekend would be a plus!

Now that's funny right there I'm going to go with 48,99,18,16,17,24. Johnson seems to have this track pretty well dialed in being from El Cajone and all

There was an article I was reading yesterday, where I believe (now don't quote me 100%) that it said that a Hendrick car or a Roush car have 10 of the last 12 races at California.

[gregg52]

hendricks or roush probably have 90 out of the last 100 races

with 9 cars if not one of their own then one they support lol

other than all the wins by the 18 last yr and i think the 31 won twice so the 4 big camps pretty much have it covered

not to many alan kukwickies around

maybe tony will be but i think he has alot comeing from hms

[FinsandFeathers]

with a different cheif who can set up for cali

Its Smokes turn!!

[eyepatrol]

Hate to say it, but I'm going with the Biff. He came on a bit at the end of last year and it might carry over to this year.

[eric29]

How bout kenseth for another win, hes faired pretty well in cali's early race the last few years-2 wins and 4th i believe

[LMITOUT]

Ended up with three in the top 10, and then Robbie Gordon. Should help the points for this week.
