Digger's Pick of the Week

Each week TRD will analyze the upcoming NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race and will present to you my Digger Pick of the Week.

This week the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series is in the Irish Hills of Michigan for what is a home game to the majority of the manufacturers in NASCAR so there is plenty on the line for the drivers and teams this week.  Michigan is a 2 mile D shaped oval with races that seem to always come down to fuel mileage; just ask Jimmie Johnson or Dale Jr.

The top ten starters for the Heluva' Good Sour Cream Dips 400 are:
Kurt Busch
Jamie Macmurray
Jimmie Johnson
Kasey Kahne
Jeff Burton
Jeff Gordon
Denny Hamlin
Ryan Newman
David Reutimann
Juan Pablo Montoya

According to Racing Reference the top 10 active drivers with the highest average finish at Michigan are:
Carl Edwards
Matt Kenseth
Jeff Gordon
Tony Stewart
Greg Biffle
Mark Martin
Denny Hamlin
Bill Elliot
Kevin Harvick
Brian Vickers

With 78% of the races run at Michigan coming from the top 10 starters my pick of the week will come from that group.

And here it is TRD's Pick of the Week is...DENNY HAMLIN who will continue his recent hot streak by pulling out yet another win for JGR.

So, who you got?
