Watch the Dodge Boys at InfineonI have been looking through the entry list for the Toyota Save Mart 350 at Infineon Raceway. I had plans to write something about road course ringers or some such.  Fact is, there aren’t that many ringers any more.  But there are an awful lot of experienced road racers driving Dodges this weekend in wine country.

Start with the Ganassi Racing trio of defending race winner Juan Pablo Montoya and teammates Dario Franchitti and Scott Pruett - strongest driver line-up in the race. Gillette- Everham has red hot Kasey Kahne with Patrick Carpentier - who will be good - and Elliott Sadler.  Penske’s Kurt Busch is strong here as is Ryan Newman and Sam Hornish Jr is experienced turning both ways.  The Labonte brothers will make Petty Enterprises a factor. Robby Gordon might be a favorite to win this thing.

No manufacturer has a stronger driver roster for Sonoma this year than Dodge.

    I thought Mopar equates to No Power?

    At Least that’s what Ryan “Soon to be Unemployed” Newman thinks.

    Cast aside thoughts of a Dodge victory, place your bets now on a Fix Or Repair Daily.

    A Fix Or Repair Daily with a #21 on it’s doors and a Devil Racer and Tasmania’s favorite son behind the wheel.

    “Gillette- Everham has red hot Kasey Kahne with Patrick Carpentier - who will be good - and Elliott Sadler. ”

    Not sure if this was intentional or not, but the punctuation above has a bit of humor to it.

    one driver is ‘red hot’
    another driver ‘will be good’
    and the last driver….well… is just ‘there’ I guess! ;)

    Thanks for the giggle this morning Charlie.

    Marc, I hope you’re right on the #21. A win by Kangaroo Meat in the Wood Brothers car would be absolutely fantastic. But I think Robby G’s going to win it. If a Blue Oval pulls it off, I like Boris Said. Come to think of it, I’ll take any one of those stories right now.

    Oklahoma, I’ve been readin’ your blog. I can’t help myself, I guess.

Got something to say?
