he's on the front row.

And he's never been a great qualifier. History shows that when he does qualify towards the top he has a really strong car.

I know it's crazy but I'm a Chevy man on raceday, then on Monday I climb into a Ford F-150 to go to work. I just don't like any of the Ford drivers either. Biffle proved last week that he is Rousch's little bitch and not a balls-to the wall, win it all driver.

he will probably be better come race time. Harvick and Burton both seem to have pretty quick cars, so I'm guessing a little info sharing amongst teammates will help him out.
