Pit Pass Network Predictions: Playoff Las Vegas

Time for the Round of 8. Las Vegas kicks off the this round for both the NASCAR Cup and Xfinity Series. Both series visited the track earlier in the season, back when there was a chill in the air. For playoff Las Vegas, the weather will be a bit warmer. With eight drivers (per series) fighting to punch their ticket to the Championship Four, the on-track action should be exciting. Will a playoff driver win this weekend in both races? Could a non-playoff driver play the spoiler and prevent a team from getting the massive advantage from the win? Who were picked this week by the Pit Pass Network crew?

Shout out to the following Pit Pass Network members who had correct predictions last week:

Xfinity Series: Robert Hill Jr

Cup Series: Andy Coffey, Robert Cwick, Tiffany Faw, & Daniel Smith
