Martinsville Prediction

Let's not be stupid people.  There is not an ounce of analysis that can change my mind about who will win the Goody's Cool Orange 500 in Martinsville.  A Hendrick Chevrolet has won eight out of the last 10 races.  Tony Stewart is the only other car that has shown that same type of consistency at this track, but doesn't have the wins to show it.  I believe that Hendrick will continue his dominance at this track on Sunday.  Maybe we will even see another 1-2-3 finish for an owner.  We will see Johnson, Gordon, and Dale Jr. up front at the end...Guaranteed!  We might even see a strong run by the struggling Casey Mears.  My gut says he can't do it 4 times in a row, but I just don't think that Gordon will beat him this time either...Jimmie Johnson will make it 4 in a row with a win in Martinsville this weekend.

P.S. This is one track that you definitely want to tune into the truck race on Saturday...those guys are crazy, and this track is one of the most entertaining Truck races all season.
