    Haven't looked to see if McDowell was running the whole thing but never count them out either.
    2020 race count:
    1/2 of an event

      Don’t think he is.

        McDowell nor Ferguson have the full SoNats tour on their schedules but Ross Bailes is planning to run the full series

          Prediction...

          One of those two win 80% of the races.

              Hard to go against Madden in the points. I think the 76 wins more races and 44 wins the points.

              Rather see Overton win it though.

                  Thanks to technology allowing me to see the southern drivers and many of their tracks in a series form this Midwestern guy is loving the So Nats. Yea Overton raced up thru the field like his hair was on fire at Smoky Mountain but I was worried Madden would run away with the points race after he won Race 1 of the So Nats. ......... If Madden was gonna be that good in a brand new car (and team?) with his experience, success and talent I thought he might run away with the thing.

                  So having no real rooting interest except for a good race every night and great series was really glad Overton won at Wythe. As the article mentions we indeed may have a neck and neck between Madden and Overton for points.

                  Interested to see how Bailes does as the series progresses. Was fast qualifier one night IIRC, started in the front row both races showing he's quite capable and has a great car right now..... Good article at DoD on the SC driver where he mentions he's pretty much new to these big TN tracks where it's slick racing and that when he spins his tires he loses a couple spots and takes a couple laps to get back up to speed and rythem. Mentions he's more used to tracks where it's easier to find grip. Says with how great the car has been it's been driver error and he must improve.

                  Hoping to see multiple winners but gonna be tough to beat Madden and Overton any night if they don't have mechanical problems. Be great to see guys like Hedgeco%$, Bailes, McIntosh, Payne, Knowles, Knuckles, Hill, Chilton, Crabtree, Fergeson and Hardy too grab some wins........ Originally thought Strickler was gonna run some So Nats. Anyone hear if he might?

                  Anyone have some thoughts on which drivers may get a win? Which are good at some of these tracks or that might fit their driving style?

                    Overton will DNF a few times and that will wreck his chances of a points title.

                      So, Madden is using a Clements engine. Is it the Clements EPIC Ford powered engine or his regular Clements engine ?

                        Clements ford. I'd guess it's a d3

                          I-75 is a wildcard. I look for Hedgeco ck to be strong there.

                            I think bailes picks up a win or 2 also
