Weekly picks from Spade Racing’s writer/webmaster/janitor Mike Mackler’s uncle.
Ahhh-its great to be back! I had a great, relaxing week of vacay over at my friend’s beach place. Nothing like just kicking back with a few cold ones and some hot babes. Granted, the hot babes were missing, but you take what you can get.

Anyways, here’s my picks for the upcoming race weekend at Watkins Glen (total wins in parenthesis):
Xfinity Series Zippo 200 (6 wins)—Justin Allgaier—The Little Gator is sneaky-good on road courses.
Cup Series I Love New York 355 at The Glen: FAVORITE (3 wins)—Kevin Harvick—doesn’t it seem like one of those weekends where everyone (else) predicts a first-time winner? NEXT FAVORITE (1 win)—Denny Hamlin—JGR: Right Result, Wrong Driver. DARK HORSE—Chris Buescher—the student defeats the Dinger.
