It is time for the NASCAR Cup and Xfinity Series to head to Alabama for superspeedway racing at Talladega. A track that can produce a random winner, predictions for the two series will be difficult to get right. As seen at Daytona, a driver can be out front the entire race and still not place in the Top-10. With Talladega, you never know what type of race or race winner you will get. Usually, one race per year will give the randomized winner and the other will have Chase Elliott or Denny Hamlin win. What do the crew of Pit Pass Network think? Surprise winner or one of the regulars?
Shout out to the following Pit Pass Network members for their correct predictions last week:
