It's a jam packed, very fun episode this week.  Dover was very good to us (and our wallets!) so we need to go and look back at that race to take a quick victory lap.  (2:24).  Then, after some news and notes, our attention is turning to the next race this Sunday; The Circuit of the Americas better known as C.O.T.A.  It's the first time NASCAR has ever gone to the Austin, TX track, so there is a lot of buzz heading into this race.  We discuss what we know about this track, and a strategy for our gambling picks.  (8:36)  Then it's time to buckle up and pick winners.  There are good reasons to take drivers from all sorts of odds, and we look at three very good candidates.  (13:39)  The top 10 section is an area that we've been pretty solid in recently, so we go back to a familiar well with some picks this week, as well as look at a new face in the game.  (23:03)  We're coming off of a great week for head to head matchups, so we're looking to keep it going with some picks that aren't huge names, and discuss how to approach practice and qualifying.  (32:59)  Finally, we get a chance to talk with Frank, a Formula 1 racing fan, and try to talk him into giving NASCAR a look since this is an F1 track.  Can we find common ground and give him a reason to become a NASCAR fan as well?  (47:23)
