Charlotte Race Picks: Uncle Max vs. 13th Place



Why is it that whenever you have a vacation coming up, everything ELSE in life has to happen at the same time?!?

In the past few days I’ve had to deal with a bunch of callouts at work, my car developing an oil leak, my refrigerator breaking, AND waking up today with a really stiff neck.  Granted, it’s nothing too terrible, but it’s still damn annoying.

On the plus side, we got a huge raceday on Sunday.  For the record, my picks for the two “preliminary” races are for the pole winners to win.


Friday Night TRUCK SERIES (2 wins) NC Education Lottery 200: BEN RHODES—the winner gets a year’s supply of education!


Saturday Afternoon XFINITY SERIES (3 wins) BetMGM 300: JESSE LOVE—breakthrough win for the latest RCR wunderkind to be held back because of Austin Dillon. 


Sunday CUP SERIES Coca-Cola 600: 13th Place Picks CHRISTOPHER BELL.  FAVORITE (1 win): WILLIAM BYRON—just about time to get on a hot early-summer run.  NEXT FAVORITE: MARTIN TRUEX JR.—although this is a home race for everybody.  DARK HORSE: TY GIBBS—about time for a breakthrough, but will he cry like Jeff Gordon did?
