1. I gotta say that I’m so impressed with Logano’s ability, that I’m actually going to call 4 more wins this year.

2. I’m gonna say 2 more. I’m with Jim on ‘Dega in the Fall, and then I think there’s another one looming out there for him that will come somewhere unexpected.

3. Overally, I have to go with the Cup race just because of the hype involved surrounding Junior. Now, you put the same exact drivers in that Truck race, and that’s it, hand’s down.

4. I’ll go with the general concensus here … Logano’s.

1)How many NNS races will Joey Logano win in 2008? I’m guessing 2.
2)How many Sprint Cup races will Dale Earnhardt Jr. win in 2008? It depends, if he can avoid wrecks, get help from his teammates, and make the right moves, than I’m looking at more than one… maybe 4 in total. He gots what it takes to win and I’m sure he’s fully confident now.
3)Which race was the most exciting of the weekend? Definitely the Sprint Cup race… it has more of my favorite drivers and the race was cool.
4)Which driver’s win means the most to his career? Joey Logano’s. He’s proved at such a young age that he is a contender in the NNS.

1. I think he will win a few more, maybe two or three.
2. I actually expect a win from him at Talladega during the fall, and maybe one or two more.
3. The Truck race, hands down.
4. I agree that it would be Logano’s first win. For Darnell and Jr, a win’s a win. Now, seeing that Darnell has a future as a Truck series regular, rather than a Cup regular, that win should be the second most important of the weekend.

1) How many NNS races will Joey Logano win in 2008?
At least one more, maybe two.

2) How many Sprint Cup races will Dale Earnhardt Jr. win in 2008?
Despite being a popular win, I’m not going to hold my breath for the next one. Then again, with the monkey off his back, maybe they can relax now and do what comes naturally. I can’t call this one.
3) Which race was the most exciting of the weekend?
Cup… The “Drama on TNT” was killing me. I missed the truck race so maybe that would have been the winner there if I saw that!

4) Which driver’s win means the most to his career?
Logano getting his FIRST win. Yep.
Jr getting his first non-DEI points win is a close second and a testament to his decision to move.

This weekend was one of the most historic in NASCAR’s history.

Joey Logano is a young talent that has all the potential in the world to compete for a win every week. The only thing that will keep him from winning is getting caught up in a wreck.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. finally got the monkey off his back and can concentrate on running well, without as much stress on winning a race. Jr. does have talent though that will give him at least 3 more wins this year.

Logano’s win, though, will be the one that means the most to his career. He has shown from an early age that he’s going to be a force to be reckoned with.

Congrats are due to both drivers, though.
