KT, Stanbrough, Dutcher is rarely off and I've seen him make a car run good where I thought it impossible to run at all. Strange that I see it as a competition among themselves?

BC, Certain drivers over the years have had the *Eye of the Tiger* and the ability to match. If any one driver I've ever seen compared to Vogler it would be BC. Sprint/Midget/Champ/Lighnting/Indy. I think BC might be a little cleaner driver but he's going to be there, you can count on that. Really wish Stewart would start a Indy team and give him the shot he deserves to have

Stockon, If all tracks were 3/8ths and bigger, i doubt there'd be competiton. needs to work on the short game but I'd never count him out.

Darland/Phillips, I hope several small or one large sponsor will come on board, Trips like the Oval Nationals cost more than they won and they won it and then split the winnings. No doubt they are capable of winning the championship. If it wasn't for a couple hiccups last year like terre Sprint crash trying for lead DNF and eldora which they salvaged a fifth after passing tons of cars in both consi and feature. They'd have won it in 13 no doubt in my mind.

I see several drivers and teams capable of upsets at many tracks but not the championship. Stenslands, Hazen, Wes Mac, Hines, Coons, Weir, Tmez, Boesplug, Leary, Shu, MDC, Short and several others not on the top of my head.

Best of luck to all teams and drivers for the most important thing, A SAFE 2014

I think Stockon had more success on the bull rings this year than on the big tracks. Won 3 features all on quarter miles.

Dutchers two car team would have to be the early season favorite I think.

But the wild card will be this new tire and how long it takes to figure out.
