Bluegrass!
LOTS & LOTS of matchups out there, but I only see 3 that I REALLY REALLY like!

I'm not touchin' the matchups that consist of drivers such as Park, JR, Jarrett, Gordon, B. Labonte, Harvick, or Rudd. I like a few of these but the money is wAY too high!

Favorite one for tomorrow is that Hamilton -115 vs. Elliot Sadler -115. Hamilton has consistently run in the 190's all week and was 4/10ths of a second from gettin' the pole. He's run good all year and I think he just might sneak up and possibly win this thing tomorrow. REalize Saddler won last race but I don't have to tell ya how hard it is too duplicate two good races back to back.

Also like MAYFIELD -115 vs. Rusty Wallace -110. As pointed out earlier, Rusty's crew chief been in and out of the hospital all week. I think it's been confirmed that he will not be in the pits for Sunday's race. This is bound to be a big disadvantage for the Miller LIte team especially going up against a team that has been performing extremely well over the last few races. In qualifying, Rusty was damn near last comin' in 43rd in which a provisional could have been used. Mayfield was an impressive 3 mph faster in qualifying and ya got to wonder if Wallace's team is really into this particular race.

Johnny Benson -120 vs. Sterling Marlin +100. Little pricey but the Pontiacs have performed extremely well this week. Dodge on the other hand has appeared to be the worst performing so far. Benson actually had the best car in Happy Hour finishing in the 190's. Sterling on the other hand qualified in 38th position.

Although I can't stand him, Stewart looks pretty good against Burton. This is another Pontiac/Dodge play as neither team has looked that good this week. Burton actually crashed but not bad enuff to go with his backup car. Happy Hour results had Stewart in 20th and Burton in 38th. Liked the fact that Tony fought his way thru the pack last week and had a top #5 car. We all know what happened b/t he and Gordon on the last lap. You can also bet your ass that Stewart's team will be out to prove something this week with the comotion Tony caused last week in Bristol.....

Also might play Andretti vs. Elliot. Both Dodge teams qualified in the back of the pack but Andretti is having the much better year. His Cheerios team has been right at the top in the last two races and one could probably make the arguement that they had THE best car in Bristol. Andretti's results in Happy Hour were much much better where he improved his time to the 13th position. Elliott on the other hand had another pour showing in Happy Hour resulting in a 40th place finish.

Soooooo.......

Stewart over R. Wallace
Andretti over B.Elliott
Mayfield over R. Wallace
Hamilton over Saddler
Benson over Marlin

Good Luck!!!

Lets get em Neems!!! They look good, I absolutly love the Andretti over Elliott matchup. Elliott has been garbage all week, and will probably wreck out of this race at some point due to being such a bad car. Andretti had a bad break at qualifying but other than that I dont see why he wont make a Top 15-20 showing.Elliott cant even smell top 25.

I tell ya what I think im gonna end up doing tomorrow, cuz as you say, the juice is high on those favs. I will paythe price, but in parlays. I am real high on the guys you named off.

Only matchup that I am not with you 100% on is that Benson over Marlin, b/c Benson has been fighting his car all week, maybe he got it together in crappy hour, but I cant be sure.

Good luck to ya!
