NASCAR PICKS!! Texas!

[Brer_Papa]

The 7th race this season is the "O'Reilly Auto Parts 500" at Texas Motor Speedway on SUNDAY, March 31st.

Qualifying is set for FRIDAY, March 29th. Please make your picks before qualifying is scheduled to begin.

Texas Motor Speedway is a quad - oval track with a lap distance of 1.44 miles. It's officially listed as a mile and a half though. We'll see 334 laps to the checkered flag for a total race distance of 501 miles.

Some fun facts: The #48 car of J Johnson has the most wins with 5. The #49 also holds the most top 5's with 15 and the most top 10's with 21. He also holds the record for most laps led with 1041.

Just some Texas track history that I found interesting.

OK! My Texas picks:

K Harvick <~~~ Given me no reason to not pick the #4...

Kyle Busch <~~~ Missed the 3-peat by <-> much!

D Hamlin <~~~ Getting in a groove as each race is run....

J Logano <~~ Had some bumps and bruises at Martinsville...but will bounce back...


M Truex JR <~~~ Earned the pick...

My spare will be Kurt Busch...

Picks from Princess Ariel:

Spare will be #11

OK! Good Luck EVERYBODY!!
