As my nephew relayed to you last week, I’ve been busy at work getting things cleaned up. And I mean REALLY clean. The corporate big-wigs gave out some pretty sweet overtime to us to make sure every surface, floor, bathroom, break room, nook, cranny, and shelf is completely disinfected.
You really have no idea how long your building’s been there till you clean our areas you didn’t even know your store had. I’m guessing this place used to be a grocery store, because I found a stack of promotional signage for produce tucked away in the back—thankfully no produce itself, and unfortunately no extra S&H GreenStamps like they advertised.
Here’s the picks for all of this week’s races:
Wednesday CUP SERIES Blue Emu 500. LAST YEAR’S WINNER (2 wins) Brad Keselowski. FAVORITE: (1 win) Kyle Busch—time to reclaim The Bow from Chase. NEXT FAVORITE: (1 win) Joey Logano—can’t be booed after winning if there’s no one in the stands. DARK HORSE: (0 wins) Matt Kenseth—what a story…if it actually happens.
Saturday Afternoon XFINITY SERIES Hooters 250 (2 wins) Brandon Jones—proving his worth beyond plate tracks.
Saturday Evening TRUCK SERIES Baptist Health 200 (1 win) Austin Hill—two years in a row.
Sunday Morning XFINITY SERIES Contender Boats 250 (2 wins) Harrison Burton—to the youthful go the spoils.
Sunday CUP SERIES Dixie Vodka 400. LAST YEAR’S WINNER (2 wins) Kyle Busch. FAVORITE: (1 win) Denny Hamlin—I get the feeling we’ll see a JGR car in victory lane no matter what. NEXT FAVORITE: (1 win) Martin Truex Jr.—see above. DARK HORSE: (0 wins) Austin Dillon—some Chevy power and a little fuel mileage luck.
