I think that Ballou and Jake Swanson could both win it but I am not positive that I have read that they were following the tour full time although I assume they are.

I read that Westfall and Jadon Rodgers are both doing the whole tour, I am not convinced that they could win the championship but I feel like they both have an excellent chance to win races.

I don't want to leave anyone out, I guess I am just saying that before all of the whining starts on here I want to get a positive post out there for the potential of one of the greatest seasons that I have seen.

I saw a press release a little bit ago that Jake Swanson WAS going to be campaigning the whole USAC sprint car season. Also, I think I read that Emerson Axsom will be chasing the USAC sprint car title. If so, I think that makes 10 drivers that will be chasing points and planning to be at all the events. It ought to make for a great season!
