The Outside Groove 2006 Season Preview--Part 13

37 through 39--Getting lower in the barrel

37. 32 Travis Kvapil
The Case For: Travis has finally escaped the tyranny of a megalomaniacal logistics expert running his life. He’ll rent the truck HE wants to rent, DAMNIT!!!
The Case Against: Car hasn’t contended since Ricky Craven was gainfully employed.
Changes: New driver for the Tide ride, immortalized in a joke by Mitch Hedberg (placing it along side Smokey the Bear and Koalas).
Fun Fact: Kvapil is a cool name to say.

38. 96 Terry Labonte/Tony Raines
The Case For: This combination combines the personality of Terry Labonte with the proven track record of Tony Raines
The Case Against: Anytime you follow in Terry Bradshaw’s footsteps, you’re setting yourself up for failure.
Changes: Everything about this team is new, except for the number. Long live David Green!
Fun Fact: Insert “Brokeback Mountain” joke here.

39. 7 Robby Gordon
The Case For: Is a lock to contend at Watkins Glen and Infineon.
The Case Against: Is a lock to DNQ everywhere else.
Changes: Not many, though tougher FCC regulations will have him referring to Michael Waltrip as a “piece of fecal matter” from now on.
Fun Fact: Robby’s hair has become sentient.
