NASCAR Picks of the Week - 2022 - Dover.

Gentlemen,
    This week the NASCAR Tour goes to Dover Speedway.
     Dover,  ie the Monster Mile, or the Concrete Jungle.
     Dover's surface is very abrasive to tires.  Sometimes teams run out of tires.  Dover also has excellent traction which will stress suspensions.   
     I'm predicting lots of blown tires, and rear suspension failures.
     This race should be run by a driver who can go fast without hurting the car, AND who can get good fuel mileage.
 
Here's your Top 12:
     
1.  Chase Elliott                                                                       7.  Kyle Larson*
2.  Ryan Blaney                                                                       8.  Martin Truex, Jr
3.  William Byron **                                                                9.  Ross Chastain **
4.  Kyle Busch *                                                                     10.  Aric Almirola
5.  Alex Bowman *                                                                 11.  Kevin Harvick
6.  Joey Logano                                                                     12.  Chase Briscoe *
 
     Here's My Picks:
          Winner:  Joey Logano
               Long Shot:  A.J. Almendinger
                      1st Out:  Cody Ware

     We had one person pick the Best Long Shot.  That was Wood Nickle, Picking:  Christopher Bell.
