Suprised so many have Michael McDowell in their bottom 5 since the team switched to Chevy and now use ECR (Earnhardt-Ganassi / Childress) engines. McDowell was the fastest of the Go or Go Homers (qualified 23rd) at Atlanta debuting their new Chevy and engine package last week.

The 5 who will miss are:
1. Todd Bodine
2. Mike Bliss
3.Casey Mears
4. Michael McDowell
5. Jeff Green
Brian Keselowski will start 43rd.
Both Labonte's will make it in, one (likely Terry) will use the provisional
JAMIE MCMURRAY WILL MAKE THE CHASE!
...and Robby will finish.......6th at Primm, whatever that is.
