Good afternoon everyone...let's get this Wednesday afternoon partaaaayyyy started!Chris Fiegler (Latham,NY)
Who do you think will win the Sargento 200 at Road America & the Toyota Save Mart 350 at Sonoma?Mark "Guru" Garrow
How about an upset at Road America..Michael McDowell...and at Sonoma Marcos Ambrose might get back the one that got away in 2010.aroznowski (USA)
What are you expecting from Greg Biffle this weekend? How bad of a whooping will he get from Boris Said?Mark "Guru" Garrow
I don't think we'll see anything between those two..and I don't really expect much from Biffle this weekend. Sonoma has definitely not been of his better tracks and his overall road racing stats are that great.Steve (Indiana)
Think Logano might be good use of roster space this week? ThanksMark "Guru" Garrow
He could be. He was top-10 at Sonoma last year and back it up with another top-10 run at Watkins Glen, which proved to me Sonoma wasn't a fluke...If he comes through Sunday, I believe he'll be even more attractive at Kentucky the following weekend...A lot of will depend, in my opinion, on where Joey starts in the Toyota Save Mart 350.Dave mi [via mobile]
Hey guru where were you sunday mourning needed some help but could not find you on raceday chatMark "Guru" Garrow
I was there my friend...answering one question after another for over two hours..We missed you..lolTed (South Carolina)
I noticed that Mark Martin ended up 29th at Michigan after running Top 10 (or so) much of the race - less dramatic, but Menard finished 22nd after having been Top 15 most of the day. Did they run out of gas or have to stop for gas?Thanks for the info and for all the fantasy insight!Mark "Guru" Garrow
Martin had engine trouble in the late going and Menard ran out of gas with two laps to go...and you're welcome!Ross (Cuba/Fl)
I would like to put Urt on my team but am fearful. He has wrecked so many cars I am not sure Finch has any cars that can turn right and left. What should I do?Mark "Guru" Garrow
I would probably leave Busch alone until things get a little more calmed with him. You can for just .4 more put Juan Pablo Montoya on your team and I think that would be a safer bet. Montoya's Sonoma stats are way better than Kurt's as well.Don (Kenosha, wi)
I think I have the top 5 picked for the next race. 9 42 48 14 24.I have 48 at + 0.6 so I can take them all. Show me the money.What do you think?Mark "Guru" Garrow
Did you read my preview this week Don? Or do great minds just think alike? ...Yes baby that's a team that when the race is over at Sonoma...We'll hear you all the way California screaming from your rooftop "SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!!" ...of course we'll then read the next day about a crazy guy in Kenosha being arrested for disturbing the peace!Steve (Indiana)
Hello Guru. Thoughts on Kahne for Sonoma after 2 straight crashes? Line-up anchor advice? Juan, Robbie, Boris, or Vickers. Now have Smoke, 5-time, Marcos, Kahne, & 55. THANKSMark "Guru" Garrow
I'm not all that concerned about Kahne..He's got a lot of speed and that hasn't really changed the last two weeks. But I do like Jeff Gordon better this week..I think he's be the guy to team up with 14,48, and the 9...Juan Pablo will be good too if you want to worm him in there somewhere.Chris Fiegler (Latham,NY)
Do you ever go to Road America for the Nationwide Series Race?Mark "Guru" Garrow
No, I've never been there, but will be a cool place to visit one day I hope.Matt (ny)
Hey Mark, how's this team? 24,14,9,42,17. I know 17 isn't usually good on road courses but every week Jimmy Fennig has set up that car well, and at pocono which some call a roval (roadcourse/oval) he was very fast. Just kind of have a feeling he'll be good. Thanks!Mark "Guru" Garrow
Matt, that's not a bad team...and 17 will be at least a top-15...but trade him for the 48 and you have a team that's a bad mamajama...and you're welcome.dave (ny)
hows this team29,48,14,88,15,9,42,16Mark "Guru" Garrow
If 88 and 16 come through with something decent Dave, you should be in pretty shape..48,14, and 9 potential winners...42 potential top-5..Harvick a top-10..KARL (COLUMBIA MO)
MAN! I was in pain with Kahne and Smith ! Only thing that saved me at all was JR! I am not falling for any road ringer junk drivers. If Boris and Robby and Tomy et al can pull it off, more power to them. I am using drivers in the top 25! I like Ambrose and Stewart and then can do as well with any of the T-25 ers. Allmendinger is my dark horse in the good equipment, overdue mode! (of course the 99 will finish top 11!)KARL (COLUMBIA MO)
Sorry I ranted and forgot my question.. future of Reutimann?Mark "Guru" Garrow
It's okay Karl...lol...If Reutimann isn't back in the number 10 next week then his one week gamble to jump in the 51 did play out the way he thought it would or perhaps Tommy Baldwin said it could.Kevin (PA)
How similar are Sonoma and Watkins Glen in the driver's eyes?Mark "Guru" Garrow
Not even close Kevin..They consider Sonoma a much more technically demanding track as far as braking, shifting and getting in the corners...Watkins Glen is much, much faster and drivers almost consider it another intermediate speedway that just happens to also have right turns.Scott (Lac Qui Parle, MN)
Who should I start this week, the 9 or the 10?Mark "Guru" Garrow
Are you just yanking my chain Scott?...lol...Marcos Ambrose or Tomy Drissi? That's easy call...take the Aussie.devin bachman (whitmore lake mi)
how dinger where he finshed i am takieng a top five for him
