Dream Winner

[0cents]

It seems by the time Saturday night rolls around for every big one at Eldora it usually is a contest between the same handful of cars each time.

So who's the "underdog" that everyone would like to see pull it off?

With Babb not being there I'd like to see someone like Shirley or Wilson pull it off.

Unless it has a huge curb I don't see an underdog have any shot at winning. Too much technology and aero at that place.

I'll take Davenport, Moran, Brandon Overton, Pierce, Thornton Jr, nobody else has a chance, other than maybe Hudson O'neal.

[Pennsboro32]

I think it’ll come down to JD and Pierce but I wouldn’t mind someone like Shirley, Zeigler, etc winning.

update: I see Squirrel is not going

[zyoung25]

Pierce wins even though I want McDowell to be that guy

Josh Rice is my dark horse or underdog

Going out on a limb. First time winner at Eldora this year. . Yep it will probably come down to the same cast of characters vying for the top spot...

49, 32P, 76, 71, 1, 99 - about 95% sure the winner comes from there. If they really juiced it up before the feature like they did the World last year, it would bring a few other guys into play to just throw it on the cushion. More than likely a guy like that will use up his stuff before lap 80 & the usual suspects will be at the front.

I'll watch, but it's just not what it used to be in terms of competitiveness & the top regional guys having a fairly solid chance at the big $.

Edited to add 20RT into the 95% bucket. Honestly probably slots in right behind 76. 49, 32P, 76 & 20RT. 80% chance your winner is in that 4.

What do you mean Babb not being there? He runs Thursday

There was a death in his family & it was posted on his team facebook yesterday that he is not going to be at Eldora.

[lernerville nerd]

Babb said he had a death in the family and would not be there.

[Pennsboro32]

Shirley isn’t going either.

[chathamracefan]

Well there goes one of the off the radar picks. Brian has run good there over the years.

[Josh Bayko]

McDowell for the win.

[Highside Hustler25]

#58 for the win.

shocked if it’s anyone other than 49, 32, 20RT, 99, 71, 76
