Predictions:

Winner Prediction: Dale Earnhardt Jr.

I believe Jr. will get revenge from Bristol a couple weeks ago and take the win at Homestead. Jr led a lot of that race after Stage 2 but caught fire late in the race and finished in the 30th position.

Top 10 Predictions:

1st – 88 Earnhardt Jr
2nd – 7 Allgaier
3rd – 20 Nemechek
4th – 98 Herbst
5th – 18 S.Smith
6th – 21 Hill
7th – 00 Custer
8th – 10 Hemric
9th – 2 Creed
10th – 1 Mayer
