Around and around we go, you know the drill.
No Brainers
1. #48 Jimmie Johnson He’s got 5 wins here and it’s his home track, he usually does quite well
2. #17 Matt Kenseth Kenseth also likes California and has several wins here.
3. #22 Kurt Busch He’s got AAA on his car this week at Auto Club speedway, he pretty much has to win here, and he can do it. He’s done it before, and will most likely have to in order to keep rocking his points lead.
Guys To Watch
1. #4 Kasey Kahne Maybe his bad luck has turned around?…Maybe not. Only one way to find out.
2. #42 Juan Pablo Montoya Sure he’s on the Pole this week…but can he stay up there? That’s the question.
3. #24 Jeff Gordon After a pretty boring race for him at Bristol, can Gordon turn some heads out West? Wait and see.
