Reid Spencer, Bill Marx and Roger Kuznia of the Sporting News are matching wits in the Pit Box in 2008. The rules are different this year.
We can pick a driver only once during the season. But for good measure, we'll also pick our favorite to win the race.
REID'S PICK: Michael Waltrip. If Michael wins a race this year, it probably will be on a restrictor-plate track. His car was strong enough to push Dale Jarrett to the front in the second Duel 150 qualifying race.
Who Reid really thinks will win the race: Tony Stewart. Toyota wins its first Sprint Cup points race.
BILL'S PICK: Dale Jarrett. I'm going with Jarrett because I know I have only five races to use him, and I think this race is his best shot to do well of the five.
Who Bill really thinks will win the race: Dale Earnhardt Jr. Can you say, "Storybook?"
ROGER'S PICK: Mark Martin. Much like Bill, I'm going with Martin because of his limited schedule. I also like the fact that Martin has no enemies on the track and keeps his car clean.
Who Roger really thinks will win the race: Tony Stewart. His 399 laps led in the past six Daytona races is nearly triple that of second-place Kurt Busch (141). It's his time.
