Time for NASCAR’s top series to head to the reconfigured Atlanta Motor Speedway. Now featuring superspeedway racing, Atlanta could be home to random winners.

Will the Pit Pass Network crew correctly pick a winner this weekend? Read below to find out who the staff believes will bring home the hardware.
While no one correctly picked the winner outright, shout out to Cash James, Casey Melvin, and Daniel Smith for having Sammy Smith as their longshot bet.
