Picks For the Win: AAA 500 @ Texas

1. #41 Kurt Busch.  He set a new lap record in qualifying.  So obviously he’s on the pole too.  He’s also won here before.
2. #48 Jimmie Johnson.  It’s about time he won another one of these things
3. #24 Chase Elliot.  One of these days he will win one of these things.

Guys to Watch.

1. #18 Kyle Busch.  No pressure for him til Homestead.  Must be nice.
2. #2 Brad Keselowski.  Will Joey’s team work together with him this week?
3. #11 Denny Hamlin.  Watch for nothing revenge-like to happen to him…this week.  You have to wait a few races so the officials have a harder time connecting the dots.
