We will need to see the Duel line ups first I believe as NAZICAR will split them up on practice time I believe. T Labonte is in but could race his way in and give the PCP to Bill Eliott but in turn Bill could miss the race..wil NAZICAR split the two PCPs too soon to get going but i'm in just the same. ect...ect....ect....

I hate to be the one to say this, but the 97 could actually qualify in. It's Daytona! Conway doesn't need much skill to run one fast lap in Q trim. Nemechek's cars are usually pretty fast in Q trim here. However, if he has to race in then I doubt it.

Hate to say it but if your sponsor is TBA, I have to pick you not to make the race.

64 - this isn't 1990
97 - no teammate's owner points to fall back on this time

Robby's been listing his sponsor as TBA for like 3 years now! Well, that is until now anyway...

Martinsville, yes, but not at Daytona.

My Picks:

09 Bill Elliott Phoenix Chevy (PCP#2): Will make it on speed or the duels easily.
13 Casey Mears Geico Toyota: Will probably race his way in.
15 Michael Waltrip Napa Toyota: Will race his way in, many will help push Waltrip to the front pack.
32 Terry Labonte U.S. Chrome Ford (PCP#1) - He's IN based on PCP, and will need it.
36 Dave Blaney TBR Chevy - Races his way in.
38 Travis Kvapil Long John Silver's Ford- Will probably have a good qualifying lap (they bought RPM's fleet of cars)
46 J.J. Yeley TBA Chevy - Not gonna make it.
57 Norm Benning TBA Chevy- Not gonna make it!
60 Todd Bodine Tire Kingdom Toyota - Races his way in.
64 Derrick Cope Sta-Bil Toyota - Not gonna make it!
66 Michael McDowell HP Racing Toyota - Not gonna make it.
87 Joe Nemecheck AM FM Toyota - Iffy...but I say makes it, re-wraps the car with ExtenZe and driver change....LOL!
97 Kevin Conway ExtenZe Toyota - Not gonna make it. Too bad ExtenZe didn't make good on their checks, imagine KC, you could be in a Dodge!

Even if the check cleared he still wouldn't be in a Dodge. He was never in the the big picture.
