OK, now with THAT out of the way, how the heck are we supposed to make picks for dirt races when Nascar doesn’t even seem to know how to call them itself?

TRUCK SERIES off
Saturday Afternoon XFINITY SERIES Ag Pro 300 (1 win): Kaz Grala—has experience, and is an upgrade over Jade Buford (yeah, yeah, I know—damning with faint praise).
Sunday CUP SERIES GEICO 500: LAST RACE’S WINNER picks Kyle Busch. THE ROULETTE WHEEL picks 29th in points Ricky Stenhouse Jr. FAVORITE (1 win): Harrison Burton—the 100th Wood Bros win—finally! NEXT FAVORITE (1 win): Denny Hamlin—quietly becoming a plate racing expert. DARK HORSE (1 win): Daniel Suarez—to put Trackhouse clearly ahead of Kaulig and 23XI.
