Looking for a reason to pick Junior at Vegas?

When Dale Earnhardt Jr. didn't finish the Auto Club 500 at California Speedway on Sunday, it was the 4th time in his career that he had two straight races with DNF's [did not finish]. At Texas in 2000 after two straight DNF's Earnhardt won; At Phoenix in 2004, he won; At Indy in 2006 he finished 6th; and at Las Vegas in 2007.....? (from espn)

If you've got SPEED channel....

....check out "car of tomorrow" testing at Bristol.

SPEED will air a pair of 30-minute specials from the NASCAR "Car of Tomorrow" test sessions from Bristol on February 28 and March 1 at 7:00pm/et. "NASCAR is expecting somewhere in the neighborhood of 50 cars to participate ... with some teams bringing more than one car," said Frank Wilson, SPEED VP of Production. "This is a huge test that will set the table for the rest of the NASCAR race season ... how teams handle this car will go a long way toward determining the 2007 Nextel Cup championship."
