2008 THUD Season Preview

This season looks to be a strong 3-way battle. I know that's what is said every year, but this should be close for several reasons:

1) All three teams have a solid 8 drivers who are locked securely inside the top 35
- In past years, one or two of the teams have had a couple of very inconsistent drivers which have really hurt their team

2) This year, all 3 teams are relying heavily upon veterans - not rookies, as in years past

3) This year, there is no clear cut favorite among superstar power for each team

We should have tight battle all year long.

Questions as we face 2008?

1) How will the teams do driving the car of tomorrow at every track?

2) Will Handrick and Gibbs continue their C.O.T. dominance?

3) How will Dale Jr. do with his new team?

4) How will Gibbs do in Toyotas?

5) Will Michael Waltrip finish a race?

6) Will Hansen watch a race?

7) Does Hansen sleep in the nude?


It will be hard to crown a THUD champion until these questions are answered. But when they are, it should make for a great year.
