My pick is Greg Biffle. Even though he had alot of bad luck last year, I look for him to come on strong in 2007.
Jr. has done shot his year by starting a fued with Teresa E. about control in the DEI stable.
Gordon has a lot on his mind with Ingrid expecting a baby.
Tony S. can never be left out of the mix. He'll be strong from the get-go. He is my pick in the Daytona 500.
Denny Hamlin will have a decent year, but the sophomore jinx will bite him.
Jeff Burton won't be as strong this year and neither will Harvick. I still don't think RCR has what it takes to win a championship.
Jimmie Johnson, though not my favorite, will again be a contender. But he won't be able to defend his championship this year.
Don't be surprised to see Rudd doing good for Yates. But he won't be good enough to make the chase thanks to RYI having so many problems.
Carl Edwards will be back in the chase this year.
Kahne will have problems. But don't get me wrong, I would love to see him do good.
Kenseth is still hungry for a 2nd title. He will be fighting for it too. I just hope Gordon stays away from him at Chicago this year.
These are just my predictions. Don't hate me for them.

both are somewhat good race vehicle drivers and both are deserving. As for who benefits it the most, it would want to be Jeff. He might want to be screwed back by technique of the Chase. He became might want to dominant and intensely importantly consistent. tremendously a lot each end became a right 10. Jimmie became type of fading because the season approached the chase. he's prevailing even as it counts, although the Chase somewhat desires to be reformatted in a way that it closes the hollow up, yet nonetheless reflects what got here about interior the season. As enormous as a Jeff Gordon fan i'm, i'll claim Jimmie will win for the consecutive 3 hundred and sixty 5 days. He has the momentum and the tide grew to develop into in his want after 26 races.

Earnhardt Jr.
Although I'm a Jeff Gordon fan, Jr. is the big one who hasn't won a NCup Championship. This might be his year to win. Kasey Kahne is also another person I think that'll be up there. All the rookies last year that made the Race For The Cup will probably be off this season.

Well, I was going to go with Tony Stewart, but since everybody else is going that way, maybe I'll go with more of a dark horse and say Kevin Harvick. The Busch series got him rolling last year and I could see him taking that positive momentum into Cup. Plus, he has a solid teammate in Jeff Burton.

Carl Edwards - Roush is gonna be back on board this year. And Carl has reached a level of maturity that will show in year-long consistency through highs and lows. He'll be competing against Kenseth and Biffle for the top spot.

Tony Stewart will not miss the chase again, and has a great chance for his 3rd title. Johnson will miss the chase. I like JR for a run at it, but I don't think he will win the title this year. ( and I would hope I am wrong I like him). I really like Carl Edwards and would love to see him win. He really is press perfect. Great smile.
Personally though I would love if in some way shapre or form that Mark could win it.

Its going to boil down to Tony or Jimmy again. Possibly someone out of the Richard Childress shop. I'm anxious to see the all new Chevy small block run. It's totally different. I heard the head engine man from the Hendrick shop say that the distributor is now in the front. I'm certian I't will have all new cylinder heads. Possibly similar to the Z06 motor in the Corvette. I'm sure the Ford boys are working hard also. As for the Dodges I'd say their looking for better life . They've got the horsepower but their motors have to stay together too. I don't have a clue what they're breaking.

i think it is dale jr.s year this time.. the team had some issues between dale and eury but i believe that they have worked out their issues.... if that is the case i think they have a great chance at the cup... also jr. is starting to mature a little more seeing that his career is more than just an endorsement chance...jr is starting to mature a little more as a serious race car driver too accepting the fact that he should not try and live up to the shadow that people have created for him..... he needs to drive for himself and he will do wonderful...... I VOTE #8 and yes i am biased..lol

Kasey Kahne because he gets better and better. Look how many races he won last year. His team has got to get the consistancy dialed in better this year. Second choice-Jr. His team has started to gel again and he has grown up since his fighting with Teresa E. and the poor season his team had 2 years ago.
