NASCAR at Watkins Glen picks, odds: Kyle Busch going for weekend sweep

Who takes the checkered flag?

Here are our picks for the road race of this season.

Winner: Kyle Busch
After taking his first checkered flag of the season a week at Pocono, rowdy is out for blood. After winning his first Xfinity Series race at The Glen on Saturday, Busch will start from the pole on Sunday as he chases his third career win in the track. From our point of view, as long as Busch does not mess or see his motor neglect, he should at least finish in the top five.

Contenders: Joey Logano, Martin Truex Jr..
We’re simply not ready to give up on the 2016 championship event, especially after his second-place complete in the NASCAR Xfinity Series race. Logano marched his Cup crew out on Saturday and they did not disappoint. His team knows it’s win or go home, so anticipate the 2015 Watkins Glen winner to take his shot Victory Lane on Sunday. As for Truex Jr., well his r??sum?? speaks for itself. The points leader possesses 14 stage wins three race wins, eight top-fives and also a 29 playoff points. Truex Jr. directed the most overall laps in Sonoma in June prior to fighting engine failure with just 25 to go. Best think he hasn’t forgotten about that…

Wild Card: AJ Allmendinger
We were not very high on the road course expert back at Sonoma, and for good reason. Allmendinger finished 35th, despite winning a point in June. This time around we think it’s going to differ. Despite a run in clinic, Allmendinger’s results at Watkins Glen speak for themselves. In addition to a win in 2014, he has an average finish within the top 10 in eight career starts there. Don’t be surprised if Allmendinger plays spoiler to a driver on the playoff bubble Sunday.
