The winless streaks by drivers such as Tony Stewart, Jeff Gordon and Kevin Harvick have ranked amongst some of the biggest stories so far this season. They came into this week’s race at Watkins Glen as some of the odds-on-favorite to win, but alas, Kyle Busch shut the door on those plans yet again.

I think Tony will get a victory first. Then probably Kevin Harvick. They’ve come so close. ;)
Well, you’d think that they’re both about due by now, eh?
:) So, now that the chase is closing in, who’s your pick to win the championship?
